Just want to put my mind at rest and stop googling. Heres mine and dh info...
Age 28 (both)
My cycles average 39-42 days
DH is on anti-depressants (heard this can affect sperm???)
DH also smokes which i know isnt good for fertility.
So im just wondering if there are any successfull stories out there with similar info? If that makes sense =)

I have always had a long cycle 32-42 days. I had my DD by accident, she’s 6 now. We were trying to conceive for 2 years, we both gave up smoking, made dietary changes. Fell pregnant after over a year just when we had been referred to fertility clinic. Unfortunately had a missed miscarriage and therefore fertility clinic discharged us without ever being seen! I wasn’t ovulating every cycle. Went back to GP 9 months after miscarriage for fertility referral, I was pregnant again without realising! I am now 24 weeks and hoping beyond hope that all will be ok!! I had to track ovulation meticulously for months!!! I never want to pee in a cup again!!! Start ovulation testing, keep a note every month and if you are not ovulating every month go to GP. I have read that having a long cycle can prevent pregnancy but if you get a shorter cycle ie 32-36 days go for it!!! Don’t lose hope it happens!!! (Sorry for long reply).

I had 45-53 day cycles and conceived very quickly 3 times. Sadly 2 ended in loss but now have a 13 week old daughter x
