    Crossing the 6 month mark

    @katrina2017 Agh I know you’re probably right, but the HSG was SO traumatic for me. Have never felt pain like that in my life. RE said based on where the block was (right at the opening to the uterus) it was likely a spasm, but no way to know without doing it again. But it hadn’t even occurred...

    Crossing the 6 month mark

    @christina446 I know you’re right, there are so many stories of it happening after the 6 month mark, it’s just hard to hear that we’re later than 80% of couples and not worry. I love what you said about finding it calming that you’ve accepted you might need assistance. I know there’s still a...

    Crossing the 6 month mark

    @mina6871 WiFi analogy is SPOT ON. I always knew I wanted kids and we want a big family so there’s some anxiety coming from fearing that this longer than anticipated timeline means that may be becoming less likely. But I think a big part is wanting to problem solve and becoming fixated. The...

    Crossing the 6 month mark

    My partner and I just passed 6 months of trying. I know this isn’t long at all in the scheme of things and I know technically speaking anything under a year is considered healthy and normal, but this milestone has hit me harder than I expected. Some of the numbers around conception rates at...
