Is it true that my husband and I did? Yes but that’s hard to really say because with our first I was coming off of the pill after like three years of use and with our second I had an IUD removed, your body takes longer to regulate after the pill. Realistically we were lucky both times, with our first it took maybe 3-4 cycles and it only took 1 with our second

i know some people that conceived naturally with first and had to do ivf with second.. it really just depends

We did but I know plenty of people who suffered with secondary infertility.

I conceived my 2nd the month I came off contraception. 1st took about 6months. 3rd wasn't planned as was in contraception. So for me yes it was quicker with my 2nd but will be different for everyone

Whoopsies both times

Early scan

I only found out I was pregnant last Wednesday but it turns out I could be between 8-12 weeks gone 😬
I get to go for an early scan today so I’m super excited but I will also be on my own so I’m a bit nervous encase there’s anything wrong. Either way, I’m wishing myself luck 🍀

Feeling ill

I’m 4 weeks post partum, had an emergency c section. Currently pumping and supplementing with formula but I just keep feeling underlying feeling of flu like symptoms, aching bones kind of thing. It never manifests into anything but I always just feel a bit unwell. I’m wondering if it’s the expressing that’s making me feel like this !? 🤔😫 Anyone else feel like this?

Balloon catheter/ Induction methods

I’ve been offered an induction tomorrow at 41 weeks but baby is fine. I’m considering getting the balloon catheter but I’m wondering if they will insist I do other induction methods after 24 hours if I don’t go into labour naturally?
Would they allow me to wait a few days and see if anything happens before discussing further intervention?

I don’t want to do it then end up cornered into getting more forceful methods that have painful contractions because nothing is wrong with baby.
