Hi Hoop 1981,
Ik snap jou helemaal...mijn eerste zwangerschap 10 jaar geleden kwam vlot na 2 maanden. Toen was ik net 20 jaar. Met 29 jaar gingen we het opnieuw proberen. Na 2 maanden was ik weer zwanger! Dit eindigde helaas in een buitenbaarmoederlijke zwangerschap. En pas 8 maanden later was ik weer zwanger. Ik dacht dat ik gek werd! Heb alles geprobeerd...uiteindelijk ben ik volledig ingestort en een maand 'rust' genomen. In die maand kwam ik Path to Pregnancy tegen. Een boek dat je online kan krijgen. Met veel tips die ik in mijn maand rust heb gedaan. En toen was in ineens wel zwanger! Nu 20 weken en we krijgen een zoon!
Ik voeg hier een stukje uit dat boek over de kansen om zwanger te worden. Toen ik dit las, kon ik een hoop los laten...ik besefte namelijk niet hoe klein de kansen eigenlijk per maand zijn:
Formula for Fertility
The path to pregnancy can be a bumpy ride. There are no guarantees and a million things that can affect your ability to conceive. Approximately 80% of women under age 35 get pregnant within the first year of trying. But for the remaining 20%, half will go on to get pregnant within two years after addressing some mild issues, while the other half will need medical science to intervene on their behalf. That‘s great news for you – that means there‘s a 90% chance you can conceive on your own! That‘s what this guide is all about – and to help you determine when is the right time to find out if you happen to be one of the 10% of women who need extra assistance. Your age will have a lot to do with your chance at conception. In a society where 20% of all first time moms are over the age of 35, more and more women are dealing with the problem of not being able to get pregnant quickly and easily. Odds of getting pregnant in a given month, by age:
? Early 20‘s: up to 25 percent
? Late 20‘s and early 30‘s: up to 15 percent
? Late 30‘s: up to 10 percent
? Over 40: less than 5%
Number of women who achieve pregnancy within the first year of trying, by age:
? Early 20‘s: 94 percent
? Late 20‘s and early 30‘s: 70-85 percent
? Late 30‘s: 65-70 percent
Average number of months until conception, by age:
? Early 20‘s: 4-5 months
? Late 20‘s: 5-7 months
? Early 30‘s: 7-10 months
? Late 30‘s: 10-12 months
12
One thing I just want to point out in case you missed it. Women in their twenties (at the peak of their fertility) still only have a 25% chance of conceiving in any one cycle. That means, when put another way, there‘s a 75% chance you won‘t get pregnant in a particular month even when you are in your twenties and at peak fertility. It‘s important to point this out, because I think many women put too much pressure on themselves each month. They think that something is wrong if they don‘t get pregnant in just a few months. But as you can see from those statistics, it is perfectly normal for it to take several months (up to 12) to get pregnant. Surprisingly, even race plays a small factor in conception. African American women have a 10.5% infertility rate under 35 years of age, while Hispanic women have a 7% infertility rate and Caucasian women deal with 6.4%. Keep in mind that when we talk about numbers and percentages, they‘re just statistics. That doesn‘t mean your case will strictly adhere to any certain group or timeline. So often I hear women who are struggling to conceive complain, how come other women who are overweight or smoke, drink or use drugs, or don‘t even ?try?, seem to get pregnant so easily, and yet I can‘t? No one is saying that if you don‘t follow the tips in this e-book, you won‘t get pregnant. It‘s not as if those habits are ?contraceptives?, but they will reduce your overall fertility. So if you are having any difficulty at all, it‘s best to do what you can to maximize your chances. Anything is possible, and with the tips you learn here, you can increase your odds.
Als iemand graag het hele boek gemaild wil krijgen (kost anders ca.€30) kan je me gewoon een email sturen naar: [e-mail verwijderd]
Liefs en veel sterkte!
