Anyone else struggling with secondary infertility?

[waitingforarainbow]

We started TTC#2 last July and soon discovered we were facing secondary infertility (male factor). By some miracle, we conceived after 13 months, but lost that baby at 6 weeks - my third miscarriage (I had two before my DC).

Is anyone else in a similar boat? I know I'm so lucky to have my DC but it doesn't take away the longing for a second child, and I would love to give my DC a sink

@Rowrowboat - can you post the link or a pic as there are loads on amazon. Will help 😊

These are the ones www.amazon.co.uk/Fairhaven-Health-FertilAid-for-Men/dp/B07R9553XL/ref=sr_1_1?crid=WMQ994K086N4&keywords=fertilaid+men&sprefix=Fertilaid%2Caps%2C135&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&qid=1571227254&sr=8-1
It was a good few months he was taking them for, as well as doing all the other things.

Thank you

Hi all,

So sorry to hear you’re all going through the same but it does help to know that other people do that thing of analysing age gaps of stranger families! I feel secondary infertility is turning me into a resentful, jealous person.

We were just about to go for egg collection in our first ivf cycle when the sonographer spotted something in my womb - turned out by some miracle I’d conceived naturally but the 5 week embryo is not viable. Now it’s just more delay and waiting for this miscarriage to happen and my cycle to go back to normal before I can try ivf again. And I’m so upset about those wasted eggs, because I have low ovarian reserve and can’t afford to waste any. So much emotional energy.

Meanwhile I so desperately want to give my son a sibling. I can barely think of anything else.

Good luck to you all.

I'm so sorry to read that @Quarry1. We try so hard and that's so cruel 💐
