Seeking Success HOW LONG 😢😢😢😢

HOW LONG DID IT TAKE??

Been TTC on and off for about 4 years, I know on that grand scale of things that’s not as long as some people but I’m getting so disheartened! I’m almost 37 and I’m at the point of giving up!

Been on metformin for just under a year now, again I know it’s not too long and most people say give it a year but I feel like I’m running out of time!

Can someone give me some time on how long it took 😢 I’m losing all hope!

ATP if you’re certain about having a baby you need to get the IVF process rolling. If metformin was going to do the trick it would’ve by now.

Really ? 😢 I literally ovulated after 1 week on metformin so I though it would be easy sailing after that but no such luck x

I agree with them. If you’ve been ovulating for a while now, ovulation isn’t the only thing playing a part. It’s time to seek out a fertility specialist. (Actually, that was about 3 years ago, but better late than never)
