We’ve been trying actively to get pregnant for the last 18 months, more seriously in the last 9 months (though we have not used contraception for the last 2 years).
In the last 9 months I have miscarried twice so it’s been tricky to track my cycle (though I seemingly use all the apps there are) however I had a “proper look” at it and my cycle length has gone from an average of 24 days to 27 days. Is that a normal thing or something to be concerned about?
I’m convinced it’s the start of the menopause or a sign of something more wrong with me.
I’m taking supplements, attempting to eat healthy, exercise and lose a bit of weight but so far nothing is sticking so I can’t help feeling that at 37 I’ve left it way too late for child number one.
I have been pregnant on a couple of occasions previously but was in a very abusive relationship which meant carrying on with pregnancy at the time wasn’t advisable (I’m now hugely regretting those choices)
My current partner is 45 and has a child from a prior relationship so as for help via the NHS my GP has pretty much advised that there is no support whatsoever and if I can afford private healthcare it’s “probably a waste”.
I’ve had an ultrasound and they said things looked relatively normal. My blood tests showed a slightly strange liver function but nothing more conclusive.
Is anyone else in a similar position or has anyone been in a similar position and managed a happy outcome?
