Tell the doc a little white lie!
Ive come to the conclusion after reading many posts on here that when you go to the docs to get help with ttc you should lie and say that you have been trying for longer than you have! It seems that they are not interested in helping you unless youve been trying for 6 mths to a year so why dont any ladies thinking about going to see your docs tell a little white lie? Do you think its wrong of me to suggest such a thing? xx

We have been trying for 9 months, but only seriously (ie noting cycle times etc rather than the 'just relax and bd lots and it will happen' technique) since christmas, but come Sept, if nothing has happened we will go to the doc & say we have been trying a year and see what they say.
Hope this doesn't upset anyone xxx
Im with SB and dappytart on this one.
Me and my partner are on month 15 ttc and have got our first fertility appointment in a cpl of weeks the waiting lists are unreal here and some people have been waiting 2years just to get on clomid.
So im sorry if i offend anybody but unless you think you have something wrong ie pcos or if you are over 35 then i think you should be trying for at least a year before seeking help.

Wait until you have been trying for a year before going to the doc as there may be logical reasons why you arent concieving. i.e bad timing, not healthy, stress, unwell etc etc.
I think treatment should be saved for people who really need it and definatly have proven problems with concieving.
We have been trying for 7months for our 2nd baby so I know that it will one day happen for us.
