IVF for Second Baby

Hello!

For those of you that had had an IVF baby - how many rounds/transfers did it take for a second baby? I have two “poor quality” embryos in the freezer and I’m 35 and wondering whether to do another whole round while time is on my side?! Or try the two I’ve got. (5BC PGTA tested) any suggestions welcome! Thank you xxx

I’ve done two egg collections and three transfers trying for baby no2. No embryos left in the freezer so looking to go for another egg collection as soon as I can. I’m 36. I’d definitely say to get started earlier rather than later but maybe try your frozen embryos first? 5BC is an ok quality! I was told it’s CCs and below that they’d class as poor. Plus the grading isn’t everything. You could find those two embryos both stick and you don’t need to put yourself through another collection

I had 1 embryo left over from my first round (where I got my son) and that failed on my first go for a sibling. I did a second round 5/5 made it to embryos but none of them stuck. I did a 3rd and final round and I got 3 out of 7 and it worked on the first one. I was 35 my first time (36 when gave birth) and 39 on the last collection/transfer x

Is this dark enough to be a true positive and not a false positive?

Baby Number 2?

How did you know you were ready for baby number two?
and not the typical saying of ‘you’ll know when you’re ready’. like what other things lead you to wanting another baby after your first?
I have a 15 month old son and I adore him with my whole heart, and truthfully I don’t feel like my family is complete yet but as we all know, having children is the hardest thing physically and mentally in this world, and whilst I don’t struggle, it’s the wonder of how would I divide my time and attention between two, without stretching myself completely thin. I just have all these questions and no one to talk to about it.

I want to hear from everyone that has had two, or even thinking about having another if you’re in the same boat.

thank you :)

Adoption process

Me and my soon to be husband want to go forward with him adopting my son as he want his to be his on paper which is such a blessing and beautiful thing

Has anyone had any experience with this sort of thing and how does it go?

Bit of back story
My sons father is on his birth certificate but has NEVER made any effort, he’s not seen him in 5 years no contact no nothing he now has 2 kids of his own

My soon to be husband has lived with us three years, always been around for my son from the age of 3 months, he’s the only thing my boy knows as a dad, and we now want it official for all of us

Positive

I’m having such a hard time believing my test is positive. I had a period on the 11th that was heavy for the full length and negative pregnancy test. My only symptoms are constant nausea and sore boobs fatigue. I’ve tested a few times next to the max line and it’s positive is that a real positive… I feel like I’m going insane…
