TTC after surgery - anyone struggling?
Hey girls,
Just wanted to see if anyone has had similar experiences as me - feeling very alone right now
I am very lucky to have a beautiful 21 month old and very happy - but have been trying for a 2nd for almost a year and no luck - 0vulation tests seem to indicate that I haven't been ovulating every month.
After a very long and traumatic birth with my first (which ended in surgery to remove my placenta)
Then 9 months later I also then had an emergency surgery to remove my appendix.
I am scared that these 2 surgeries have damaged me in some way and thats why I haven't been able to conceive.
I recently had blood tests which showed a low level of progesterone and an ultra-sound which couldn't identify a problem.
Apparently the next step is 'further investigation' with the hospital but have to wait 6 weeks for an appointment and don't really know what will happen next.
Anyone experienced or know anything about this?
Thanks
