Hi, new to this board. I have a few questions. My H and I have been TTC for about 3 months. No luck yet. I was on the pill previously and am 31. Anyone have a similar sitch? I have heard anything under a year is normal . . . Also, I have been monitoring my fertility signs, taking temp, etc. anyone have experience w OTC ovulation predictor kits? Positive or negative? Thanks!
I'm in a similar situation, but a few months ahead of you. I was on the pill for many years and stopped just over a year ago. My husband and I started actively trying 10 months ago, and are about to start on our 3rd round of IUI treatments. I tried all of the ovulation kits, temperatures, ovulation signs, etc and nothing seemed to work for us. It was after 8 months that we sought out help and here we are. I am 34 and my husband will be 38 this year and he has 2 children from a previous marriage. We both for tested, and although there are alight deficiencies, there were no signs of anything significant that would prevent is from getting pregnant. My girlfriend and I started ttc at the same time and she gave birth yesterday. I have to just believe that it's not our time yet. We're trying to stay positive and hopeful.
Hun you definitely posted on the wrong board so be prepared for snarky remarks that being said, keep your head up, it takes most couples a YEAR to conceive and some longer than that. People may say that "3 months is nothing" but I know that if they think back, even those first 3 BFN's hurt like hell. So ignore the pain of it and seek real help after a year if you're still having trouble.
My hubby and I have been trying for 6 years and just did our first IUI last Wed. I am ready to be done trying. I am just ready to have a beautiful baby! Good luck to everyone who has been trying for some time now!
Re: New with questions . . .
3 months is nothing. Keep it up and try not to stress for a few more months.
