Oh hun bless you can you not try again xx

I’m sorry 😔. Please don’t t give up. I had this with my second. We struggled for 3 months and I went to a pharmacist to see if any gels or anything would be beneficial. And she explained when women worry and stress about getting pregnant our oestrogen levels drop which causes our body’s to become stressed. She told me to try and just have a break try and enjoy time with my partner and try again in a few months.
We did just that and in the break of just not checking ovulation, stressing if I’ve missed my window and just trying for the sake of me ovulating. We got pregnant. It will happen 🩷

Try the monitor initio! It confirms ovulation also, which was one of the main reasons I got it as I was convinced I was infertile as I was trying for 9 months, but then got pregnant on my third cycle using it! My friend also got it and got pregnant on her second cycle using it!

Don't give up. I'm only just pregnant with my first at 37, after almost 7 years of trying and multiple losses. I was beginning to give up, the mental battle of trying to convince myself that i was being delusional by still trying was the hardest thing i've ever gone through, i'm just so glad i never did give up. Even when i seen my faint line I though this time was the same again, another false positive or another chemical or another loss, i spotted right up until 12 weeks on and off. But all I can say is it happens when it's supposed to. I'm now almost 25 weeks with a healthy little wiggly boy and it feels like a dream.
Best advise i can give is don't go too hard on yourself, and ignore anyone around you that passes judgement, more often than not they have no idea at all what it's like. The heartbreak your facing each month is because you're believing ❤️, and that's exactly what it takes, it just also takes some time sometimes. X

Also, not sure if it was a coincidence or not, but a few months before I got pregnant, I was prescribed 5mg folic, and started to take OVUM daily (mainly for the coQ10), my other half also started taking OVUM for men. I had tried all sorts for years previous and no luck, so part of me believes this helped x

I’m so sorry please don’t give up though and sooooo much easier said then done as I been there but don’t put pressure on yourself I did IVF private spent about 10k though everything to get my son and then magically 16 months later had my daughter no IVF needed for her just rest relax have fun and believe me I understand the disappointment of late period then randomly showing up please please feel free to message me if you want to talk about it 🩷

Oh did you continue bleeding? What colour was it? Have you done a pregnancy test? I bled lightly for like 6 days but was pregnant, was implantation and irritation bleeding, I’m now at 23 weeks.
It’s not a guarantee, but it’s still worth checking with pregnancy tests. For me it was a very faint line but it did get darker when I tested again 2 days later. I was in a bit of disbelief. I had been trying for ages to get pregnant. Right when I didn’t want to get pregnant and wait until the end of the year, I practiced the whole sperm donation thing, in a time I thought I would be safe (I even ovulated late!) and bam this little miracle happened.
It’ll happen for you, it may not be this time, but it’ll happen in its own time 💙

For context, I was 38 weeks with my first, so I’m curious whether I should expect the same this time around? Or is there actually nothing behind it? Just wondering if anyone who’s been through it before knows! Thanks 😊

As I wrap his presents and preparing for his upcoming birthday, I got so emotional thinking how much things have changed over the past 11 months. It has been such a roller coaster ride! It’s infuriating but humbling in ways I never could have imagined before babies! Well done to all mama for surviving this journey!
