Anyone else struggling with no being able to concieve 🥲

[Ks1994]

Hi ladies,

Cycle 14 and yet another negative test. Feel like everyone around me is falling pregnant apart from us.

Awaiting gynocology appointment for pains behinde my c-section scar but think il be waiting a while. My GP done bloods of hormone levels etc but everything come back OK.

I just honestly wasn't ready for how draining ttc can be after this time. Just looking for someone to tell me I'm not alone in this I suppose 🥲

I’m only on month 3 of TTC #3 so not as far in as you but feel like we are on a clock now I’m 38 and finding it hard not to get stressed already.
Did you conceive easily in the past?
Our older 2 are 9 and 12 so it’s a long time since we were TTC previously

You’re definitely not alone in it hitting you hard. It seems so much more all consuming and stressful than it should.
Wishing you lots of luck

Just to give you some reassurance it took me about 18 months to fall with my second child!

It's so hard isn't it. I feel like it's all I think about. Yes we fell pregnant completely unexpectedly on the pill when I was 20 nearly 8 years ago now. So think I was just niave and expected it to happen by now

For those struggling - have a read of Luisa zissmans maybe baby page. She advises certain tablets and there are SO SO SO many success stories! It's worth a shot xxx

Cycle 21 here. Feeling your pain

Cycle 21 here. Feeling your pain

Sending lots of baby dust your way hopefully will be our turn soon 💓

Hi OP I feel the same as you. I've only been pregnant once and I miscarried abs haven't been able to conceive against since. I came off the pill two years ago. Sending you strength x

Im currently in the 2ww of my 4th cycle. Ive been pregnant 3 times in the past, 1 normal pregnancy healthy baby, 1 chemical, 1 stillborn at 31 weeks. Ive been trying since my son was stillborn with no joy, and every month it breaks my heart.

I hope we both have better luck soon x

Over 10years, it's been a longgggg road and we have hit many bumps!

It can certainly be a hard and painful road- especially when it feels like every friend, family member and work colleague has a baby or is announcing yet another pregnancy.

We've TTC 12yrs- no cause for infertility found, although now I'm early 40's, the older eggs aren't helping the cause. 3 MC's and 2 rounds of IVF.

I've come to terms with the fact its very unlikely it will ever happen now. I have a happy life otherwise and things can always be worse. Looking at the good side of things has helped me get through.

Aww ladies sounds like you've all been through a time of it 😔. No one prepares you for the heartache of ttc continously for months on end.

We've got married last year and everyone is asking us when we are having another baby and honestly could burst out in tears everytime I hear the question.

Or the dreaded "itl happen one day"
"itl happen when the time is right"
"Try not to stress about it"
Talk you get from people when you do try to open up about how your feeling about it all.

@Ks1994 I feel your frustration.

We conceived after about 16-18 months of trying (tracking ovulation religiously so timing was always right).
Unfortunately that ended in a mmc we were devastated.

Ready to start trying as soon as af comes and I'm dreading the months of ttc again.

Have you/ dh had any tests done? We have 1 dc but nhs tested dh's sperm (all above average) and scanned me (couldn't see any issues). That's all they'll do though.
We can't afford ivf although I'm not writing it off completely.

@ellie5341 thanks for your reply. I'm so sorry to hear about your mmc that kust of been devastating especially after all that time trying.

I habe had blood test done and a referral to gyno due to pain I habe behind my old c section scar which I'm concerned is having an affect on my fertility. But other than that nothing. I know they wouldn't do much necause we already have a child.

Our first was compleltly unplanned and I was only 20. I felt like I didn't get the chance to enjoy my pregnancy because I spent the whole time shocked and terrified if that even makes sense. Been through alot the past few years and I became the soul carer of my neice and now she's back with her mum down south I never get to see or hear from her I just feel like huge part of me is missing and a baby is exactly what we need to fill this horrible

Honestly want this so so so much 😭
