@Jess i know the feeling... it sucks a lot. I wish we can make it easy on ourselves. Im already mentally preparing for the disappointment. But each month is sadder and harder. Sometimes i get angry with myself for not startinf sooner but i have to remind myself that it isnt always the case of age either.
Same I personally didn't want any kids over 35 and here I am 35 in April and trying for another. I have all the baby stuff ready just not sure whether to sell it and make space for 19month old who wants a proper toddler room now. I always prefer myself and convince myself my period will come hate the not knowing
@Jess im seeing 36,38,40,42 year olds posting about their pregnancy here and other social media platforms. People who were diagnosed with pcos too! All having babies so age and weight isnt the main factor here. I mention weight because i am plus size and seen tons of high bmi ladies pregnant too. I wish i knew the delay :( if its something i gotta eat i will!!! Have you went for a check up?
I have an up and down thyroid so wondering whether it would be worth having a check up with bloods. I might do after Easter if nothing happened by then. I still had a belly after my youngest so decided to get fitter and lose a little weight so I'm hoping that helps. Same it's so hard if someone just told me what to do I'd do it
@Jess thyroid can be an issue from what i heard. Check that and go from there. Maybe i should focus on my weight too and see ? Its just so sad 😭 i just saw someone post their pregnancy photo and i had to skip it!!' I want to feel happy for them but it reminds me of my current sadness
Ohhh I know I'm so happy for others but also so upset and jealous. Then I feel guilty as Im lucky to have 2 healthy girls already which I am just I ache for one more. I think I've been focusing on strengthening my core and losing my previous baby weight which in turn has helped me feel mentally stronger too. Don't become obsessed with losing weight just fitter/ healthier and stronger in general and hopefully that'll help.
@Jess having to stress over weight would just be another disappointment lol so i focus on better choices. I hope we get our babies by the end of 2025💗 i feel the exact same way as you. I think if i just got pregnancy my anger and "jealousy" would go away too. Ifs not even a bad jealousy either.. its more like comparing. I dont wish anyone harm obviously. May all that want a baby be blessed with one.. just dont rub it in our faces until we get ours jehe 😆😆
Yes same totally get it. Better choices is good 😊 fingers crossed we both get our babies this year 🤞🤞
I get these feelings each month we've been trying for our 3rd for almost a year and it's hard 😭
