Did anyone get pregnant naturally after trying over 12 months?
Me and hubby have been trying for 14 months now (this is our 15th), and I was wondering if anyone on here got pregnant naturally after 12 months of trying.
The Dr said that the chances of it happening now naturally are low and I was just wondering if many people had beaten the odds?

They both fell pregnant using agnus castus for 2 or 3 months, taking it up until ov.
hope this helps xx
I think there is plenty of hope and know of a few people who have conceived naturally well after a year.
I was trying for 16 months and got my BFP about 3 weeks ago - We were actually planning a baby well over two years ago but had to have operations before we could even start trying.
I felt as though my chances of conceiving naturally were slim as I had ovulated every month and surely it would have happened by now if it was going to. We had all the tests and were awaiting the next step of IUI or IVF when I got my BFP.
In that time I tried everything but felt that the acupuncture and Chinese medicine I had in the last 5 months may have helped.
Wishing you lots of luck and hope you get your long awaited BFP soon xxx
Can I ask what chinese medicine you had? I'm getting to the stage now when I'm prepared to try anything.
I'm so so pleased for you! Enjoy every moment of your pregnancy

Good luck! x
Good luck!
xxxx.
Good luck!!!! xxx
Glad to hear your feeling more positive....ttc is such a rollercoaster of emotions!
I was prescribed some Chinese medicine by my acupuncturist called planting seeds, I think they concentrate on the implantation stage. For me it was a case of getting my periods more regular and settled. They found mild polycystic ovaries with me but we had no other obvious problems.
I think the acupuncture and medicine helped, but I also started jogging every day, I was a normal size anyway but I think even a little extra weight can effect your fertility. It's hard to pin point if any of these were responsible for my BFP or if it was just my time. The whole "relax and it will happen" did not ring true in my case....I was still using CBFM, pre seed, temping and pulling my hair out when I got the good news!
Wishing you all the luck in the world and like you said...it is so so special when you finally get there xxx
My CD 21 bloods were ok, just waiting for my DH to do another SA at the end of Nov. We were told that the sample wasn't big enough to test the first time around. I'll be glad when we have the results because at the moment I feel like we're TTC with little of hope of getting a BFP as I'm now convinced that there must be an issue. All the waiting and hoping is so hard, I was really upset last month so this month I'm not temping or using the CBFM. I'm just going to bed regulary and enjoy my time with my hubby.
Hope you get your BFP soon hun, its nice to know that people on here have manged to do it after the 12 month mark. What is your next stage in the TTC process? Are you waiting for any tests? x
I'm currently awaiting some blood tests results to check my hormone levels to see if I have mild PCO in my left ovary. However, I had a scan today for my follicle tracking and I have got a follicle on my left ovary! So excited just wish it would happen. Me and hubby are both taking multi-vits now and I've ordered some bee pollen, bee propolis and royal jelly as I found by chance a post saying that someone had seen that it was meant to increase fertility. Anyway I googled it and there is so much stuff about pollen/propolis and royal jelly and improving infertility. I'm not totally convinced that it will do anything, but at this stage I'm willing to try anything to be honest. We have gone de-caf aswell, so are going to try and do everything right for 3 months as in January we hope to start IUI. I'm just hoping that we all get a BFP soon! I just can't wait to see and hold my little miracle I know we will all get there in the end....x
