I have one son and have been unsuccessfully trying for a second. I just wondered at what point you ladies with secondary fertility began to have investigations etc?
I've heard mixed stories of what is available on the nhs - I've had the day 21 tests and seem to ovulate, I have fairly regular cycles too. What next?
I assuming I'm not entitled to much on the nhs so how do I start to even approach/choose a fertility clinic when I haven't the foggiest what might be wrong? And would I need to be referred or can I just book myself in?
In addition I had a fairly traumatic c section last time and have a bit of a niggling concern that maybe some scarring or something might be causing the problems, has anyone else had that investigated?
I'm going to give it til the end of the year and try a few more things (we have a holiday planned so maybe the "relax and it'll happen" will kick in ) and going to read up on improving my diet and lifestyle overall but would also like to start researching next steps while I have a few quiet moments on holiday and can talk to DH in a more relaxed environment.
Thanks ladies!
