I know it's so hard getting af month after month. My dh and I conceived in our first try, and then miscarried at 10 weeks. It's now been about 16 mts since the mc and we are still not pregnant. The other posters are right, it can take a normal healthy couple a year to conceive... Just remain positive, and it will happen when your body is ready to sustain a healthy pregnancy. Baby dust!!!

thnks for your comments. I will be 26 in next few months, so no not over 35. Yes it is so hard when you want something so much and thinking of the one you lost. Lauren I am so sorry to hear that, that is so sad. It does help talking to everyone on here xxxx

hi all it took me 10 months to concieve again after having a miscarrige and sadly that pregnancy also ended in a miscarrige at 7wks only 6wks ago.
i desperatly want a baby
after a month of trying i got pregnant the 1st time and my hcg levels just werent rising
then a 9 month long wait of being upset, trying to concieve, taking hpt was taking over my life... i threw it out of the window and got pregnant straight away
im only 20 yrs old and have already had 2 miscarriges my heads all over
ive had fertility tests, a laparoscopy to check my ovarys etc and every thing is fine.
i am waitin now for a period as i still havent come on after the miss.
my doctor is sending me for a progesterone test on day 21 of my period (hopefully i will come on soon) i want to keep positive but its very hard
im scared if and when i get preg again that ill have another miss
i dont think my partner understands how hard it is for me as he already has a 9yr old
weve been together 4 yrs but the past yr has been the hardest due to all the upset and worry ...

Dana is very right.  It can take a healthy couple up to a year to conceive.  Sometimes these things just take time and I know how terribly hard it is not to let it stress you out.  I know it's hard to hear, but don't give up hope because it will be very worth it in the end.  My DH and I have been TTC for 3+ years and we just finally got our BFP through the help of a specialist.

(the only caveat to that is if you are over 35, and you don't have your age listed.  If you are over 35 and have been trying of 6 months; it's perfectly resonable to go to a specialist to help move things along).

Aw honey...I know EXACTLY how you feel.  For my son and the pregnancy I had the m/c i conceived on the 3rd or 4th cycle.  To get pregnant this time it took 10 cycles and my cycles were painfully long so it was almost 11 months.  It is frustrating and depressing, but chances are, there really is nothing wrong.  I was just about ready to call the dr. to start investigating if there wasn't an issue I wasn't aware of, but then I got my BFP...  I wish I could tell you when you will get yours...I did so much crying and stressing about it, it was the worst year....  It's especially hard after a m/c because you keep thinking about the little one you lost, month after month, at least, I did.  The m/c can do strange things to your body and so can stress.  I am not going to stay STOP WORRYING because I HATED when people said that to me and you just can't help it anyway because you are involved in the process.  My only word of advice is to not give up hope...there were times when I wanted to but I somehow found the strength to keep pushing forward, and it finally paid off.  Good luck to you.. :)  Feel free to talk to me anytime!!
