    When I conceived my son I had completely given up all hope of ever being a mum. I thought I was too old (was 41 at the time) therefore I'd been really lucky to have the pregnancies I'd had (although all were short lived).

    Then suddenly I was pregnant again. I used to swing between feeling like this was the sticky bub I'd hoped for or thinking that there was no way things were going to work out well. If you can manage to keep positive when LTTTCing then I'm all for it, but if you can't (like I couldn't) then I really don't think it matters.

    When I gave birth I was 42 - 14 years after I first TTC'd but 9 months after I'd given up all hope. It was a natural conception even though I'd been told IVF was my only chance of a successful pregnancy.

    You just never know what's ahead of you in this life.

    Almost forgot. Re the psychic. My aunt who could "see" things only ever saw me with a girl child. I used to think this meant that I wouldn't have my own child as I had a step daughter. My aunt passed about a month before I became pregnant with Brock - I guess she could only see what happened in her lifetime. Maybe it's the same with the psychic you saw.
