Just that really. Wondering if anyone else is feeling as fed up as I am!? We’re TTC number 2 and I’m CD1, second cycle after a chemical in March. Really thought I was pregnant last week and feel so silly for thinking that but I truely believed all the ‘you’re more fertile after a chemical!’ and I felt I had lots of symptoms. So this is cycle 7 which is just crazy. We have a beautiful baby boy who was 2 in January and I’m just obsessing over age gaps,my age (37 in Sept) and just if this is going to happen for us. We had a miscarriage before our son back in 2021 which was incredibly traumatic and TTC is just bringing all those feelings back. Plus I have long cycles and normally ovulate around CD20 which just makes the waiting so hard. Last cycle (after the chemical) was ALL OVER THE PLACE and I ovulated CD32 which is insane.

I’m going to try a few different things this month. Going to look into fertility acupuncture, call the Drs to see if I can get some tests done as I’m over 35 and it’s been more than 6 months, eat more healthily and continue regular exercise etc.

Just wondered if anyone else is in a similar situation and wants to chat/support each other? Would really love that! ❤️

Hey
I hear you .. I’m 36 , (37 next feb ) and have a 2.5yr old. We are now onto month 5 of ttc - I had hoped for a 3 year age gap but that’s out the window now. We conceived first go with our son, so it takes a bit of time to get your head around the BFN each month.
I’ve done a hertility test and my husband did a home testing kit too last month and it all came back normal - within range for our age. I’ve done research on diff vitamin tablets and this month we’ve been taking Impryl which I’ve seen recommended by some fertility clinics - I’m now just trying to relax about it and if it’s meant to be it will - I think it’s only around a 20% chance anyway each month to conceive so I’m just holding on to the hope that within a year we will be in that 20% !
Not sure if my reply is helpful lol but essentially I am in the same boat ! X
