TTC advice

[MtSu]

Hi, I’m just looking for some advice. My husband and I have been trying for the last three months with no success...I know the average for most couples is to conceive in a year but I can’t help panicking. I had a MMC last October at 13 weeks and the whole process took 10 weeks to sort. I kept having to go back for scans, then had a procedure (they said the pregnancy had stopped at 6 weeks). This didn’t remove all the tissue so had to have tablets and they worked 3 weeks later. The whole process really put me off trying again soon after but we decided in March to try. Now I can’t helping panicking it’s not going to happen for us. I’ve been tracking using an app, checking cervical mucus and using OV sticks. Our first pregnancy happened the first time we stopped using protection and I guess I naively thought it would happen again quickly. I know I need to stop worrying but it’s hard. Anyone have any advice. Thanks

Your story sounds so familiar to myself. I had a MMC in Sept of last year, two rounds of tablets didn’t work and ended up having surgery. My period came back maybe 6/7 weeks after my surgery. We have been fortunate to conceive again, but it has taken half a year or so x

Not sure my story is of use or helpful as I’ve had multiple mc (3) and 2 chemical pregnancies. But I conceived originally in 4 mths then 5 mths after mc, then 3 mths after that mc. It took me almost a year to conceive my 1st chemical pregnancy then 3 mths after that. We’ve been ttc 3 years 37-40 now aged eggs are the only reason they could assume. Usually if your young and healthy your next pregnancy will be ok.

I think your worrying far to early I had a missed misscarrige at 12.5 weeks now pregnant again it’s been almost a year to conceive x

Thank you. I know, I just need to relax. I think I’m overly panicking as I turned 35 recently and keep reading things about your fertility decreasing at this age! Think I need to stay off the internet 😂

Relaxing is very important for conception though difficult for some.and I’m approaching 35 so had the same worries but actually got told it’s a fluke and it depends on lots of things like your health your genes and it usually drops between 36 and 37 compared to 35 those statistics are mainly used in ivf but not a healthy couple.i have a health condition so was very worried about conceiving again x
