I think I have made myself crazy with worry already...

Its just so hard isnt it? Sigh! I dont know what to do to help things anymore? The Dr just said to have sex 2-3 times a week and that was it? and if we didnt in a year to go back and we might get treated for infertility! x

It is comforting to have company in the irrational-fear-of-infertility crazy camp! DH does not share this problem and is completely confused my my worries But I am super paranoid about the what-ifs.

I keep trying to tell myself that IF problems fall in our lap on this journey, there will be plenty of opportunity then to stress, cry, worry, etc then and it does me no good to spend this emotional energy now. It works........sometimes.

Yeah I know what you mean! Its the not knowing thats frustrating I just wish I knew that everything was okay and something would happen eventually! I just do not know what else to do to help things really! My OH says I shoukld be positive but it just feels like it isnt going to happen! x

Hey - I totally know what you mean. I was thinking the same thing by cycle 3, I thought "ok, well I'll probs get pregnant this cycle". Now it's cycle 8. But I actually don't think there's a problem. I think it just takes a bit longer sometimes. I think I'd start to be worried once it gets to 12 cycles.

The only thing that worries me is the age of my husband. He's 40, I'm 28. But still, you always hear about celebrity men having kids with their 4th wives at the age of 69!

In my personal experience, I worried more between cycles 3-6 and then kind of calmed down a bit. I guess because by now I think, ok! Well, it's been 8 cycles, surely the chances are getting more and more??!

I do understand how you feel, though. xxx
