TTC 8 months and going mad

29 replies

Hi all

Just wondering if anyone has some positive stories to share. My husband and I have been TTC for 8 months and zilch. Everyone I know has got pregnant almost immediately so it feels like a really long wait. Have had some initial tests done and the only thing they flagged was my lining was a bit thin (probably because of being on the pill for years) but it's borderline. I'm 29 and was really hoping to get pregnant before my 30th in March next year. Any support, suggestions or others in the same boat, very welcome!

It took us 1 year to conceive the first time and 3 months the second time.

Keep at it ( pardon the pun ) I know it's hard but hang in there and keep the faith 🫶🏻

Can I ask how old you were for the first?

@Un7breakable - 33 when conceived, 34 when gave birth.

Hiya, it took me 13 months to conceive my first (age 31) and 18 months to conceive my second (age 35). A lot of my friends and family seem to conceive at the drop of a hat but it just didn't work that way for us - I know how stressful and hard it all is. Just try not to let it take over your life and enjoy all the things you can do now before your kids arrive 💜
