So my history. I’m a 35 year old woman (please no hate - I was in very difficult circumstances at the hands of men)
I got pregnant at age 17 after a condom split at a party (and the guy never told me till afterwards) he said that he didn’t think you would get pregnant from just once. It was very difficult but ultimately I made the decision of an abortion as did my mother who pretty much insisted I do it and took me there.
Age 20 I got pregnant whilst taking loeestroen (a low oestrogen contraceptive pill as I’m unable to take any others) - I didn’t have anywhere to live so had an abortion. Doctor told me many women get unexpectedly pregnant on them if you don’t take it bang on the same time each day. I never took the pill again.
Age 21 I got pregnant first time trying (I longed for a baby after the abortion I found it so difficult and couldn’t live with it.) I had my first son.
Age 29 - I was with an abusive man (funnily enough a doctor) he knew I was not on any contraception and refused to use a condom and ‘forgot’ to pull out. Said it was fine let’s go get morning after pill. I paid for it 30£ and was told as I took it within the hour of sex it was 99% affective. I got pregnant from this - the morning after pill failed. I wanted the baby but I got threats that if I kept it he would make my life a living hell and would not see the child I couldn’t bring a child into such suffering. He already was and I couldn’t bring a baby into it. Had another abortion 😣
Age 33 - in a loving relationship - I had always wanted more children and a sibling for my son. I conceived after sex once first cycle trying and had my son.
Age 34 - was not trying to get pregnant my son was only 10 months (my partner was pulling out never ejaculated inside or anywhere close) I found out I was unexpectedly pregnant. We were barely having sex postpartum so it was bizarre as must have been from pre cum which I know has barely any sperm. Was very exicited for a sibling close in age. Had a missed miscarriage at 10 weeks as the baby stopped growing. I figured maybe the sperm was weak as it was from pre cum.
Age 35 - cycle 1 trying for a baby - chemical pregnancy. Late on period by 3 days and faint positives before period. Had sex only once in fertile window at start.
currently going into cycle 2 so anxious, as I’ve conceived easily in the past I’m wondering if it sounds like something is wrong? Or is my age? Anyone with similar experiences?
