Second baby taking much longer :-(
Is anyone else finding that their 2nd baby is taking much longer to concieve than their first?? We were amazingly lucky to have concieved our little boy first cycle and I naively thought it would be just as easy this time. Tested last night BFN so on to month 4 for us. I know it's a relatively short time it just doesn't feel like that when your living it everyday.
Wonder why it is taking longer?? I'm 30 and my hubby is now 40 (we were 27/37 with my son) and
I had a section (apparently the scar tissue can cause issues) so I've been googling "secondary infertility" god the Internet is an evil I convince myself of alsorts!
Is anyone else finding the second baby a longer process than the first time round?

We conceived DD straight away so I am too finding this really hard ttc no 2. We were 27/28 when had dd and now 30/31.
We started ttc in Nov 11 and I have just got period today 5/6 days early, which worries me slightly as didnt detect ovulation this month so im now worried something is wrong!
CD1 today for me, and this will be month 6 for us.
I have no idea why its taking so long, but it' s taking over my life and that upsets me , I have a beautiful daughter and I feel like i am wishing my life away waiting for a bfp, people tell me not to worry and it will happen whilst others (who dont know we are ttc) are asking when we are having another
I have also googled secondary infertitility and a whole host of other things , and you can really scare yourself!!!
I am more worried about why i didnt ov, or ov d early or late, and also why af is 5/6 days early than why im not preg this month as i knew we pretty much wouldnt be as we only dtd 3 times the whole month as i had a water infection and was told not to ttc whilst taking the antibiotics, which i had to take cd13- cd16 and also wait 24-48 hours after to get it out my system so if i would have ov'd at "normal" time for me that would have been right in the middle of that time!!!
No idea why its taking so long and Im even thinking of going to doctors, i keep panicking thinking what if i have PCOS or something...arrrrgggggghhhhhhhh I can honestly say this is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life, all the not knowing!!!!
Sorry hun my post turned into a major rant , sorry XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Maybe like u say on ur other post try the clearblue digital OPK (I used both just to check the cheapest worked) but what worries me is that even if u get a positive OPK it doesn't necessarily mean your ovulating it just detects the surge. On the other hand, I read reviews on the Internet cheapies saying they didn't get a positive OPK then turned up BFP same month??
Totally off topic is ur DD date of birth 06.04.09 as in your screen name?? My DS is 04.06.09....so the other way around...spooky!! X
I'm due to start clomid next cycle but for no medical reason, the fertility specialists have classed us as unexplained infertility. So desperate for our bfp now, it just feels like our life is on hold.
Mummy2grace, can't believe how far along you are, hope you are well x
Hubby thinks that we will get pg again really quickly (only took us 3 months)but I am not so sure - especially seeing as my cyces are now so irregular.
Good luck though hun - I am sure it's nothing to worry about and i've heard its a common thing.
Whats SMEP mummy2grace??
Mrscox - my dd waa due 06/04/09 but was born 04/04/09 would have been spooky if they were 0604 and 0406 !
Our stories defo sound v similar.
How are you feeling ,hope af stays away xxxxx
Ended up getting pregnant on the 2nd cycle of using CB OPK, and 1st cycle of using AC and Vit B6 x
