How long did it take to conceive?

I’m worried that I’ve had 6 cycles now since being cleared to TTC after my ectopic treated with methotrexate. My cycles are regular but getting shorter and nothing happening. How long did it take you after an ectopic with methotrexate?

Conceiving!

Can anyone give me tips for the best ways to help conceive? Our first daughter was a surprise but we’ve been trying for another for a while and haven’t had any luck. Staying anonymous as I know lots of people on here and don’t want anyone knowing we’re trying yet! Tia🤍

Sigh

We have been trying since June. It’s December, and I just feel defeated. I guess because my son was so easily conceived, I’m feeling this way. Is it too early to think “something” could be wrong?

How often?

How often are you having sex when TTC? Every day, every other day, twice a day, something else? And what worked for you? I'm still waiting for my BFP. ☹️

PMS

Anyone else get so much more annoyed around that time of the month than they used to? I also have PCOS so never actually had periods before, these have returned in the last 6 months and oh my god! I am either super emotional or I want to kill my husband for literally everything!

How hard is baby no2?

I’m thinking about having another baby. I struggled a lot with the first, I had post natal depression and found everything so difficult, my Mat leave was a year of trying to survive. I’ve just got to a place where life is ok but I like the idea of my little girl having a friend. Everyone tells me the 2nd is easier…....

There were some red flags like asking me if I had kids during my interview, or if bc I had kids do I have reliable child care or would I call off alot, and it was a bunch of older women and 2 doctors. I didn’t get the job. Proba...

Mixed feelings

Is anyone else wanting another baby even though their first isn’t even a year yet ? I don’t know how to explain the feeling it’s like I do but I don’t, I also don’t wanna wait too long if I am going to conceive again…

Not currently ttc, but sad…. anyone else feel this way?

I feel heart broken knowing every month I have the chance to get pregnant but I’m not💔 Hubby agreed to start trying this spring but I can’t help but feel this sense of sadness and disappointment until then. I’d be ready to start trying now, until then, this is going to be hard

Should we go for number three?

We have two boys, one 2 and the other 12 weeks. We were over the moon when we found out we were having another boy, however there was a small part of us that said it would have been lovely to have a girl however, it didn’t really bother us, just happy to have another healthy baby. After our son was born, we were ...

Second babies

Anyone finding second baby more difficult? I don't know whether it's because I had more time to do things and get out easier with my first. But the second baby seems harder to settle and more demanding! Anyone else?
