Colustrum harvesting

How many attempts until you started to get anything? I've tried twice but had nothing yet. Should I be worried and contact the midwife? I'm 37+2.

Anyone struggling to conceive their second child?

Is anyone else going through this? After being extremely lucky first time around with my son, I’m struggling so much with this. I’ve now spoken with my GP as I’m 36 so have been referred for blood tests as a first step. Just feel the age gap getting bigger and bigger now and really want to give my son a sibling 😢

No Baby This Month

I’m really sad. We’d decided to start trying for our second baby and timed everything perfectly. At what would have been 10 DPO, I got my period. Some days, it feels like there’s no way we’d be lucky enough to conceive again.

When are you trying for baby # 2 (if you are)

Hi! I had my first baby in Feb 2025 (this group name) and have been thinking about trying for baby #2 either when he turns two or right before he turns too! For those who are trying or already tried, how long did it take you to get pregnant the second time?
