I got some really good advice when we were starting this infertility journey from a wonderful sister and brother-in-law. They had already gone through this process themselves and when they knew that we were too, the first thing they said was, “don’t wait.” Don’t wait for a year of “unexplained infertility” or people saying “it’s normal to not get pregnant for a year.” I know that might be the medical advice but on a personal level, don’t wait for something that you want to do now. My best advice, do what feels right when you want to. If you want to wait a year before seeking help, that is great but if you feel like something isn’t right and you would like help sooner, go for it!
I think the real heartache of this all is all the waiting. So, don’t wait anymore. Seek the next treatment, the next procedure, the next big decision about your journey. Don’t wait for someone to tell you what to do- you do what you feel is best for you and your current and future family.
