Confused!

13/05/2008 at 18:12

I'm hoping some of you might have experienced this so am look for some advice. As I'm 35 and my husband and I have been trying to conceive for nearly a year now my doctor sent me for some blood tests which I had to have at various points in cycle. The text have come back fine and show that my body is doing what it should and I am ovulating. This is obviously great news but at the same time I'm not sure what this means as to why we haven't conceived. Just need some reassurance I think.

Hi Gill and welcome to PP

I know it won't feel like it to you but a year isn't an unusaully long time so there definately is still hope for you

Both my oh and i were 23 when we started trying for our fist baby and in total (incluing a miscarriage) it was 2 yrs before Ethan was born. I then concieved amber as a complete surpirse!!!

I can't offer you much advice on ttc but i know some of the other girls on here are experts so i'm sure you'll get lots of advice!!

But stay positive, perhaps try and think of something else for a while, perhaps a holiday? Did the trick for me!!!

Keep us posted!

Hi Gill,

Welcome to PP - I'm Sarah and me and my hubby are also ttc #1 although we have only been trying for about 4months.

I can offer much advice but if you want a chat give us a shout.

Hi Gill. Welcome to PP. I would def advise a holiday, worked for me too! It took me nine months to concieve my first and 15 months with my second after I was assured that I would fall pregnent at the drop of a hat the second time around. Just relax and try to stop thinking about the end result and enjoy the journey. Good luck, and try not to worry. N. xx

Hi Gill i'm sarah and it took me 3 years to concieve jd, i had blood tests, scans and finally a lap and dye op. I'd advise to go on a hol and relax and try not to worry, when you focus all your efforts into concieving it doesn't work. If you want to chat just say. Best of luck x x

Hello Ladies

Thanks for all your responses. I have been trying to occupy myself with other things but when it's something that means so much too you it's kind of difficult. I have been told that the level of stress I am under at work too might not be helping but there is no chance of me being able to give up work! I definately think a holiday would be good. I will be back for a chat but work beckons. Hope you all have a great day.
