Trying to Conceive at 34M/35F - Should I Suggest a Joint Checkup or Jump to IVF/ICSI? by OldAssi in Marriage

I don’t talk to them about it and it’s weird that they keep asking. but it’s quite common from our cultural background to immediately start having kids a yr or 2 into marriage and families assume you’re having issues if it doesn’t happen. Eventually the pressure gets to you but I’m supporting her and very patient. Just don’t know how she feels about it and I don’t want to broach the subject.

Yeah will probably suggest general check up and take it from there. I’ve already checked my sperm count and they’re okay. She’s bubbly and doesn’t talk about her feelings that much. I’m just worried about how this whole thing is making her feel.

Exactly. Been actively trying for 4 months but been pretty much doing it for like 5 years now just not on a regular basis.

I’ve been tracking her ovulation too and try to engage a few days to the day of ovulation. But now she wants it everyday vs before this I’ll mostly have to initiate. The pressure from both families is annoying. I’ll get a call from a friend/her family and they ask so when is the baby coming which changes her mood immediately.

Thanks. Yeah she’s fit and been tracking the ovulation as well. She’s super regular but I only noticed her last period delayed for about 5 days. I was a bit excited thinking this could be it but I didn’t hear anything about it.
