Hi, ok let me just start off with explaining my situation, I have PCOS, I have had 2 mc, one in October 2020 and another in January 2021, since then I have a new partner, and long story short we had unprotected sex twice, I suppose what I’m saying is, I’m excited but scared at the same time to become pregnant again and it all happen again, is there anything you would suggest to make me relax and not focus so much on conceiving? It has been my dream to become a mum for so long! (I am 29 btw) :/ Thank you! X

Tbh, I don't think it will be possible to think about anything else until you have that little bundle in your arms and I don't think you should be too hard on yourself about it. Especially if you've had miscarriages in the past, I imagine it is all consuming. My advice would be find a trusted girlfriend or mum or sister or someone you can vent to. And share your feelings openly with. Your partner may not understand but I completely get it. Talking helps and they should be able to console you in some way, even if it is just listening. Good luck with everything x

I would say that if you want to get pregnant that you speak to your doctor about getting pregnant with PCOS and see if they can put you on any medication to help you and see if there's any assistance you can get with trying to get pregnant. You should stay taking pre-pregnancy vitamins, folic acid and vitamin D minimum but you can get a multi vitamin specifically for pre pregnancy too. These don't specifically help you get pregnant but they make sure your body has all the right stuff in you for when you do get pregnant.If you can track your cycle so you can s when you're ovulating I would also recommend doing that, you can track it using your temperature and cervical mucus if you don't have regular periods or get

I would also say in my opinion so feel free to ignore 😊 if you're in a fairly new relationship that maybe take your time and enjoy that first without the added pressure of trying to get pregnant. My husband and I had several years of fun together before we started trying for a family and I'm so glad we did because parenting is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. From the anxiety I had throughout pregnancy to the realisation that my life had changed forever when the hands that little bundle to you, I have never done anything so rewarding but tough. So for me it's really good for us that we've had time just to ourselves before we've committed to it and really had a good strong relationship before we had our baby.
