My best friend had been going through the same since one and a half year. She had a very tough at the start of her journey, where she had multiple fingers pointing at her for not being able to bare. But then she went extremely chill about it and is 3 months pregnant now. You know least expect it and it comes your way. Believe in that. Divert your mind in other things. Let people speak shit. Its not their life. You know what the reality is. Let them say and You be you. Live a healthy lifestyle and relax yourself and your mind. And see how the good news comes your way.

As for fertility treatments, experts are best poised to answer that but for everything else, just trust your instinct, listen to your body and don’t think about negative opinions and comments. If you’ve made up your mind, it’s your life just go ahead and lead your life normally. Abroad, 40+ moms are very common. Not saying it’s ideal but it’s common. And don’t grudge your body. Send positive messages to yourself. Your body is also trying. Gratitude and appreciation are key for it will soon house another life! Good luck!

I think this is personal for many women. Whether it be focusing on career, finding a partner later in life or not being ready until later in life, there can be many reasons we can be made to feel guilty for not having kids early. I think the first step is to define what if means fo you now. What are steps you are willing to take when you are ready. Either assisted treatment such as IUI or IVF, are you open to sperm donors, would you consider surrogacy or adoption either as first or last resorts? These are some key things to define what your fertility journey would entail if you can't get pregnant naturally. Focus on keeping yourself healthy, not just to get pregnant, but also to manage what life throws your way when time comes, as the first thing to melt away in our health. Wishing you the best!
