Been trying for another for a few years with losses. Hoping this is my year as I've extended my cut off so many times and if it doesn't happen this year I really need to move on with my life.

Anyone want to join me?

Joining this thread. 43 and 3/4 and TTC number 3. DC2 was born when I was in my 40s, but we haven’t been lucky yet with DC3.

Hello. I'm 40 and ttc no 3, we have boys who have just turned 8 and 6. I had v complicated pregnancies and it took ages to persuade DH to consider another. Hoping we've not left it too late. Third month trying, pretty sure I had a false start / early loss in month 1 but my dad had a heart attack and I had to rush up to them so didn't test at the time. AF due this weekend so waiting to see if it turns up.

@Fishergirl I could have written you post. I'm 42 have had 1 MMC last February and 5 other losses. AF due on Sunday. Good luck all

Yes me. I’m 41 and we’re ttc first child. We have fertility issues though. Dh is on injections which have helped his swimmers. But he can’t come when we dtd so we’re trying home insemination.
Misread the ovulating test though and told him I was at peak fertility on Sunday. So we tried sun and Monday. Then again yesterday. Then I realised I’d misread it and it was high fertility not peak. It’s peak now but dh can’t produce anything now!
We can pay for ivf but it scares the hell out of me.

I’m in. 43 TTC #1 for feels like years (it is years, too scared of IVF too).

I'm so glad others are in the same boat as me (42 TTC 10m but nothing at all happening). I wish all of you the very best. Currently in TWW but again I'm not hopeful.

Can I ask what people's views are on COVID vaccine and TTC? I work in NHS and after whooping cough as an infant and several bouts of pneumonia I have today had my first dose. They asked repeatedly about TTC but given my risk factors it was advised. Would be grateful to know others opinions

Elllicam · 01/02/2021 22:22

Hi all, I’ll be 40 in July and we’ve been TTC for a year with two losses. @courtrai I got my first vaccine at the beginning of July.

Elllicam · 01/02/2021 22:22

That was meant to say January

@Elllicam

Thanks - it's was difficult to decide and I think I'd like to not have taken it but I can't risk getting poorly.

How is everyone doing this month?

Good question about vaccine and TTC. I am not due to get one any earlier than the norm for my age group, but it did occur to me that if I do get pregnant, I’ll miss the chance to get one in April / May (which is when I think the 40 group gets it?). Frustrating but I think I’d rather get pregnant at this point as it’s been so long! Confused

Pinkywoo · 07/02/2021 13:47

I'm torn about the vaccine too, I should be getting it next month but then shouldn't ttc until June. I'll be 41 in October and it's a race against time to get pregnant before the cysts on my working ovary damage it beyond repair, but I need to have the vaccine for my health and for the sake of DS.
