Natural Conception after 9 years!!

[jools70]

DP and I are 43/42, we have been trying for a baby for over 9 years. We opted for IVF three years ago, fell pregnant first time with twins sadly lost both, one at 8 weeks the other at 17 weeks (very traumatic).
We tried IVF for a second time but it didn't take.
After our second attempt and our years of trying au natural we decided it was not meant to be.
We moved from stressful/busy London in September to Kent.
Aunt flo was late this month, took a pregnancy test expecting nothing, the test came back a BFP, I couldn't believe my eyes. I took another test later that day and there it was again BFP!!!
I went to mothercares and bought one of those Baby On Board signs for the car and wore it around my belly when I got home. DP was in shock and over the moon.

I'm 6 weeks tomorrow, please keep your fingers crossed for us that this one is a keeper x

Very very best of luck!

Thank you

Best of luck!!

All the best!

Big congratulations, what lovely news! I am so thrilled for you, and also hearing this gives me hope that one day this will also happen to me!

How fantastic is that?!! Congratulations...and I have EVERYTHING crossed for you!!!xxx

Congratulations! I'm sure your post will give others hope. How lovely for you. Fingers and toes crossed for you

Congratulations!! Wow! and sending you good vibes! :)

wow-what wonderful news. Good luck OP xx

what lovely news on such a drab morning - really hope all goes well for you.

my friend unexpectedly had twins at 41 (after only finding out she was pregnant at 5 months!!!!) and they are now very lively 8 year olds. it can happen!!

Very, very best of luck.

We had a natural conception after 11 years of trying - and having had a few failed ivf's and adopting ds1 and dd. I have a theory that ivf "joggled" my system, hence the pregnancy.

I was convinced the pregnancy would never become a baby and it was an anxious nine months, but it did, and ds2 is now 14 and almost 6 foot .

All the best. Keeping fingers (and legs) crossed for you.

Oh my! I am stuck at home with a cold and this has cheered me up no end!

Best of luck to you and keep us updated.

brilliant news, fingers crossed for you, very nice to hear a lovely story like this cheered my day up

Congratulations!!! All the best for you!
My DH's parents after 7 years of trying (there was no IVF 40+ years ago) had 5 boys! My DH is the youngest and he was supposed to be a girl so up until he was 1 years old he was wearing pink clothes

Oh this has cheered me up no end, congratulations and good luck with it.
I hope something similar happens to my lovely lovely Dsis and her husband who have been TTC with no luck for about five years.
