Sorry it's so hard. I think most women here can relate, most have been trying for a while. It's hard when you see people around you getting pregnant so easily and you expect it will happen right away for you, too. There's no explanation. But you aren't alone here.

I am so sorry it is taking longer than expected to be pregnant and for your loss. I've sort of been there before with it taking longer than I wanted to become pregnant. It took me 10 cycles to become pregnant with my third child and some of who have been trying for over year may consider that to be short.

The good news if you can call it that, is nothing maybe wrong. It can take a healthy couple with no known issues 6-12 months to become pregnant. I think I have heard every cycle a woman has like a 25% chance of becoming pregnant that cycle.

Hi, I am sorry that you are struggling. My partner and I were trying for 7 months before we fell pregnant.
The way my doctor explained it to me is that trying to get pregnant is the same as rolling two dice, the chances of rolling two sixes and getting pregnant is a 1 in 12 chance. Some people are lucky and get two sixes in month 1 whilst it takes others to re-roll for a few more months.

This may sound like a load of rubbish to you but it really helped me.
