I've been trying to get pregnant for what feels like an eternity. But nothing seems to happen. I had one child 16 years ago from previous relationship, I'm 36 now. Talking to various people, they've all come up with suggestions, some completely crazy and some doable. One of the doable ones is prenatal vitamins. On the subject of vitamins, I'd also been reading up on the benefits of magnesium and decided that may help me in other areas of life. So I found a magnesium supplement on amazon "for women" which also contains folic acid.Here . I thought that would be handy. But I'm not sure that the amount is enough and whether I'd be best using seperate supplements to achieve the right dosage.
I'm considering seeing the doctors possibly next week. But from previous experience they seem to have a "one appointment, one query" thing going on so I don't know how much help they'll be. I know I need to get the ball rolling but I'm terrified they'll just tell me I'm too old now, soz bye. Or I'm infertile or riddled with cancer (my health anxiety is pretty bad!)
So that was a minor rant, but the question is, is that supplement pointless? Should I just use the usual pregnacare and add a magnesium supplement on the side?
Thanks :)
