I never thought it would be this hard to convince #2. Our first only took two months but we are almost a year into trying for our second with zero luck. I truly don’t know how much more I can stand of getting a negative test. My husband is bummed but it doesn’t seem to bother him as much. I love my son so much and sometimes just wonder if maybe I’m only meant to have one baby even though I’ve dreamed of having 4 or 5 little ones running around. Any encouragement or advice would be appreciated!

It’s also taking a year for us so far! Have you been trying ovulation tests a week before what your app says? The apps aren’t very accurate in determining when ovulation is and I suggest you have sex twice a day when you get that positive on the ovulation test. Hope that helps a little 😊 I just only started ovulation tests this month so we will see!

A close friend of mine had the same problem conceiving second child and ended up conceiving after seeing a fertility specialist. They were trying for about a year by tracking ovulation cycle carefully but it turns out she had endometrial polyps which were removed through a hysteroscopy. It improves fertility and chances of getting pregnant greatly. She’s not the first person I know of to have this procedure and get pregnant shortly after without IVF or further treatments. Maybe a fertility specialist would help? Good luck!
yes I have been using ovulation test. I actually tested every day for two months to really get an idea of when I ovulate so I know when to check. My husband can’t seem to finish twice a day so unfortunately that won’t work for us. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you getting a positive test!

Thank you and also good luck to you! 🥹

Might want to have your husband go in and get a sperm analysis done. We are struggling to get pregnant again. We had issues the first time and before we went in for our big analysis, for both of us, took a test and I was pregnant. We had already been seeing a specialist for a year. We are going to see a specialist in the spring if I'm not pregnant by then.
I have been diagnosed with PCOS.

I'm not sure which ones she used but my friend used essential oils to get her hormones level to the point she got her period after years of it being messed up and got pregnant the month after. If was a true miracle
