Low amh wanting a second baby after having my ivf baby

So in August I went through my first round of ivf which resulted in retrieving 5 eggs 3 of which made it to day 5 and had a fresh transfer which has resulted in my precious baby boy who is now 17 weeks old, this was provided by nhs which I am ever so grateful for, so I have a low ovarian reserve and I'm about to turn 27, having my baby boy has made me realise how much I want a 2nd child, I just really would love to experience it once more and give him a brother or sister as I know the love of a sibling bond and how strong it is, with both me and my partner working we however wouldn't be able to afford a round of ivf privately, has anyone been in the same boat and managed to concieve naturally after having an ivf baby or how did they move past the want for another child, thank you for taking the time to read this and any advice given

Congrats on your baby boy 🩵 We tried naturally for a bit after our first wondering if a pregnancy might’ve somehow reset things or something but unfortunately didn’t work in our case. We had to have further treatment and am currently a few weeks along and anxiously hoping for the best 🤞Could you look at an ivf payment plan/ credit card to try to use one of your frozen embryos? Frozen transfers are not cheap but a lot less than a full round so might not be as bad as you’re thinking. For your recovery it’s probably wise to wait a year so maybe a bit of time to save something and perhaps borrow the rest?
I really do understand your desire for another child but hoping this isn’t absorbing you too much right now and you can enjoy these early days with your newborn x
