I keep thinking of that lately, that I should be about ready to have my baby now and it is bringing back a flood of tears like it just happened. I will be 30 next May and I never thought I'd be this age and not have kids. Ever since my m/c my period has been so screwed up when b4 it was clockwork so I'm really convinced b/c of that that there is something wrong with me. I just feel like I will nevr have my own baby and it hurts me so bad. My fiance has a wonderful daughter that I love but I still feel like I dont really count bc I'm just the stepmom. What specific supplements work for getting you back on track with your period and also boosting fertility?

Sweetest friend,
I'm so sorry that you are feeling as you do. It's never easy to look back and think of where you should be v/s where you are. However, all you can do it try and move forward in the process. Try and not set any specific time frames in your head, as that only adds to the disappointment and stress. Trust me, in the beginning I would think "I'll be pregnant by March...April...May" and all those dates came and went and I grew very frusterated. Now, at the age of 37, I have resigned myself to allow things to evolve as they do. I realize I can't change any of this.
You have so much ahead of you at this young age of approaching 30 :) I know it seems old in the age of fertility, but you should see what age people are at my fertility clinic...there are ladies that are 40 and over that are successful.
As for your cycle being messed up, how long ago was your m/c? It can take your body some time to get back on track, so don't be discouraged. I drank red raspberry tea, as that was recommended to me. And, Bethany took a vitamin called Pregnancy Prep. However, if your cycles have been eradic for several months please discuss this with your DR and get some professional insight. Also, try exercise if you are not already and get into a routine...if nothing else it helps to clear the mind :)
Overall, just give yourself a break, as losing a child is traumatic and very stressful. Take a deep breath and be good to yourself.
Many HUGS
Andrea
ps you DO count, you will forever be the Mommy of an angel. and I am sure you are a great step mom!

Thank you for your kind words Andrea. My m/c was in January, and since then my cycle is just off, it runs late sometimes.

I just wanted to send you some love. I know the feeling. My hubby has a son and a daughter and sometimes looking at them together just breaks my heart. I am only 27 (my birthday is in may also) and i thought i'd have at least one by now but here i am missing 3 beautiful angels gone too soon. But don't give up hope. NO matter how hard it may seem, keep your hope. I refuse to give up. I am determined to have a happy ending , an expected end and i believe you can too. even when it gets hard just hold to hope and beleive. Sending you love and prayers.
The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. lamentations 3:24
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Jeremiah 29:11
