Anyone else struggling tc #2?

[swimchick1980]

Had #1 naturally over 2.5 years ago but took a couple of years. DH has low sperm count.

Been ttc since #1 born and feels like everyone that had babies at the same time either has #2 (or #3) already or is pregnant again. Finding it really tough, more so than first time around - really down and can't stop eating, which I know isn't helping....

Got first IVF appointment at the end of the month. Excited and scared at same time.

Any support/advice very welcome

Thanks Zuzy! Sounds like you're going through a really rough time. So sorry to hear about the twins. Glad you are able to take hope from the fact that the treatment was successful, despite it being such a sad situation. Sending you lots of luck and keeping my fingers crossed you are blessed with a baby when the time is right for you to give it another shot.

Take care and thanks for the luck - will see what our results show and take it from there

Hi swimchick


It is really tough to go through this, I'm really sorry you find yourself here.
my sisters and friends have or are expecting #3 too and they started a year after me

To share my story... Im 34 and also struggling tc#2. Was diagnosed with extremely low AMH of 0.09.
I have a 4yr old who was conceived naturally on first try but have been ttc # 2 for more than 3yrs now.

Had first ivf cycle end of April. despite being a very poor responder we managed to transfer one d2 egg and I got my BFP.
Unfortunately, found out few days ago at 8 weeks scan that they (twins) weren't growing

However, this has given me hope that against all odds, I got a BFP at first try.

Wishing you the very best of luck on your upcoming appointment and cycle
