Getting Pregnant

Our Story About Getting Pregnant
Our first baby just happened along pretty much when we were ready for her, which was wonderful. But when it came to conceiving for the second time, things went differently. Months went by, a year, two...plus two early miscarriages - and still nothing.

For the first time in my life I started living by the calendar. Getting pregnant became the focus of my life. There came a time when no-one dared ask any more and each month my husband tried so very hard not to cross-examine me as to whether my period had arrived or not. Eventually, after many hours spent sitting in waiting rooms and just when we were about to foster, I got pregnant again. I was very lucky and this time I knew it. No more taking fertility for granted!

Because of this experience, and the many stories of friends and acquaintances, I know that a huge number of couples go through just this, and that many haven't had the comfort of an earlier pregnancy, like we did.

How I wish, then, that I'd found a really good source of information on getting pregnant. A friend of mine recently discovered an Ebook (for details Click Here! ) that has encouraged her enormously. Having read it myself, I think it could be tremendous help to many people out there.

Other couples, no matter what steps they've taken to try for a baby, often find that it's when you relax and stop worrying about it (not easy!) that things start to happen.

The most important thing, though, is that we shouldn't let the issue of whether we can have a baby or not affect the way we rate ourselves. You are still just as valuable a person - in fact, probably more - if you end up adopting or fostering instead of having children of your own.

I wish you and your loved ones every happiness in life, whatever your way forward reveals.
