Over 1 year passed MC ..

[xMillie]

Anyone else still TTC 1+ year passed a MC?

We’ve mostly been NTNP the last few months - I guess - as I haven’t really been tracking ovulation, not Dtd at right times, fell into a bad habit of not taking my vitamins (inc. Folic Acid ), been drinking probably far too much alcohol, little exercise and probably gained a few more pounds than I’d like.

Am thinking of throwing myself back into trying again.. the vitamins, the tracking, maybe smep plan? Or maybe just throwing something new in each month slowly. Not really sure.

Even though we’ve not been trying my heart still aches for that baby we might never have. We have our house deposit almost finished but I don’t want to move into a house where all the bedrooms will remain empty.

Always felt so alone when we were actually trying..
anyone left in the same boat?

So many ladies catch again easily after a MC but I’m still here 1+year on and feeling alone

Hi Millie

MCs are so so hard. I'm sorry for your loss and that you are now where you are.

I lost a pregnancy at just over 12 weeks in 2012, and didn't get pregnant until two years later in 2014. My ex OH had a lot of issues that didn't help with TTC.

If it can happen once, it can happen again... It's frustrating that your rainbow baby didn't come quickly after that, but it's not to say that she or he will never come. If you're feeling ready to get healthier and give it a bit more of a go, then I'd say that's a good sign to restart. Sounds like you were struggling with doing things alone, so maybe this time you could look into getting counseling or finding a group/org that supports for the sort of things that were hurting you?

All the best and hugs xxx
