TTC#2 for 8 years. Looking for others in same boat

Hi Renemorcom5,

Welcome to moomie!

I am so sorry to hear about your loss and difficulty TTC.

It seems as if you have checked out all the possible medical avenues of possible problems. Have you considered that there could be a deep subconscious block perhaps caused by the traumatic loss of one of your twins? Sometimes the trauma of what had happened is still trapped in your body and your brain could be protecting yourself from a future pregnancy due to fear that the same situation may happen again.

My hypnotherapist has told me of numerous stories of women who have battled with infertility and it turned out there was a deep subconscious emotional block and that after this was resolved these ladies became pregnant.

This is just what came to mind when I read your moving post.

Wishing you well. xx

I had my son 8 years ago. Problem pregnancy and lost one of the twins. Miracle the one baby survived in womb until 32 weeks. Stayed in hospital for 3 months to keep him in. Gave birth to a health prem baby boy. Wanted more kids so never went back on the pill and NOTHING! Did 8 months of clomid and shots... still NOTHING! I work with abandoned babies and fell in live with a little girl that I cared for since she was 6 weeks. We eventually adopted her and she is now 3.5 years. We still want another baby and we will give it a year of trying before we look to adopt again. (I am a advocate for adoption. Its an amazing thing!) I really want to be pregnant. To make a life and feel the baby move is such an amazing thing. Hoping this year is my year. Started in January 2014 with the monitoring etc NOTHING. This is my first month of clomid (April 2014). 5 days to go before I can test. However I did not pick up an ovulation this cycle. But I am hoping that I did ovulate. I normally do ovulate.

My husband sperm tested more then perfect and all my hormone test are perfect also. I do know that some months (but not all) I do have a luteal phase defect (only 8 days and the egg does not always have time to implant) However that is not the reason for not being able to conceive. The doctors simply dont know. I wish there was a reason so we can fix it.

Looking for support and other woman to chat to. TTC is a lonely world because its only woman like us that can understand what we going through.

Feeling down and nervous. Hoping for God to give me a break and give me another baby. I am super organised so the spare room is ready... just missing a baby to fill the cot!
