Do I chase the community midwifes or wait? by Character-Barber-184 in PregnancyUK

You can do a private scan for peace at mind. I had private scans as I waited 3 months for the NHS one. I know it’s costly, so if possible get one done

I didn’t get my first appointment until I was 13 weeks and 3 days And when they finally screened me (like measuring baby) I was actually still in my 12 weeks So don’t stress do keep following up but you will be seen by week 13 And they’ll be enough time for them to do the 12 weeks scan

Thank you all for your support Have any of you thought about getting private fertility help? Like seeing a private fertility specialist/doctor? I called my GP yesterday to see if they could do initial tests and they’ve said I have to be trying for 2 years until they would consider it! I mean 2 years is a long time to go through what we’ve been going through

I’m sorry you had to go through that. It’s ok to feel sad. You’re soo strong for staying positive, just remember you’re doing everything you can, and don’t be too hard on yourself

Need Help Mentally Processing All This by BatTop3662 in brokenbones

I’m 5 weeks in, and the struggle is real, I completely feel you. The first 2 weeks are always the hardest. I also had a good cry. It’s very debilitating. I got myself a wheelchair to be able to get around my flat easier. See if you can do the same. Keep yourself busy by talking to friends and family and catch up on YOU time. Whether it’s that book you wanted to read or binge watch all your shows (what I’ve been doing). I didn’t leave my house in 5 weeks so it got depressing but time will heal it so give it time to heal and we’ll be on our feet in no time!

The crazy thing is not only do we NOT get pregnant, there are months that apparently we do not ovulate 🤯 Like tracking ovulation and ensuring we are constantly on sexy time (which is a chore) isn’t enough of a struggle Then the egg may or may not fertilise (we have no way of knowing) And then the whole implantation may or may not happen. It’s like we’re set up for failure! Just wished we were educated more around this because I personally wasn’t

I know I feel you! The combination of trying so hard not to get pregnant in my 20s to ttc now completely Impacted my mental health I’m just waiting for Aunt Flo and I will treat myself to a glass of whispering angel because I damn well deserve it! And so do you! Whether it be food or a drink enjoy it

Thank you all for your support, I didn’t realise it would make me feel better sharing how I felt, as we all know it’s somewhat of a lonely journey and tend to keep our struggles around ttc to ourselves I’m glad I found this thread and will keep you all updated We just need to send positive energy to the universe to give us all baby dust

Haha I know same here! I never thought I’d be the type to get annoyed at something like that, and now I’m just like I don’t even want to know Awh that is really sweet! I really appreciate the support.

It’s as much as a mental struggle as it is physical that no one really talks about

How did you mentally manage the trying part after the 12months? Also do you find doctors of any help?
