What am I doing wrong not being able to get pregnant for the second time?

4 days before your period you're not guaranteed to get a positive test, I got a definitie positive early response 3 days before my period was due. How long have you been trying? The NHS guideline is if you've been trying unsuccessfully for 12 months then seek help from your GP. I can imagine it must so disheartening getting the negatives every month but I'd wait and see until your period is actually due before stressing. A lot of people say once they relaxed and decided to just let it happen when the time was right is when it happened for them x

Super super hard to do when you know it’s all you want but try to get distracted by it, self care, have sex when you know you’re ovulating but don’t base having sex on trying for a baby. Overdoing it is the worst thing you can do depending on your body. Definitely seek advice if you’re getting no where after 12 months as their also could be an underlying problem. I really hope you get your little miracle. Sending baby dust 🤍🤍🤍✨

I agree with @Ebony Rose! Overthinking it is the worst thing you can do when trying to conceive. Both times, I have got pregnant when I wasn't massively focused on it. There are pros and cons to close age gaps! Easier said than done but try to go with the flow!

@Terri exactly!! I understand she wants a small age gap but bigger age gaps are great too. I have a 4 year age gap and I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way 🤍 My little boy is starting full time school September and I’ll have a 7 month old 5 days a week just me and him, exactly like it was with my first born🤍🤍🤍

I will just say that I tried a clear blue 6-day early test TWO days before my period and it came up negative. It didn't show until positive on the day I was supposed to start my period. So don't lose hope just yet. All this to say, I'm sorry this is hard for you and I hope you guys conceive soon ❤️ remember if you're over 35 and have been trying for 6 months to seek help, or under 35 and one year.

I got pregnant both times without trying (was told I was infertile for 10 years and there was no chance for me) by getting really drunk with my partner and getting it on with him then a few weeks later missed my period both times and there was my positives. The worst thing you can do is force it to happen you need to relax and have fun and it'll happen. If you've been trying for 12 months or longer then you need to get tested as infertility after pregnancy is actually fairly common

Try to relax and try having sex every other day instead of everyday as the semen will be of better quality than if you were doing it everyday x

Would you like to message me? I’m in the same boat TTC no 2 and it is devastating xx

@Tausy you probably don’t mean it to sound rude but it really does. It’s not easy to ‘chill’

@Tausy Please learn to write properly if you’re going to bother to spread inaccurate and unhelpful information.

Thank you girls, I'll try to be more relaxed about it it's just that I feel like I am running out of time, even I know I am not, it's a weird one because I am just 31, so I do have time but I really wanted to give my little one her sibling 💗 I think I try for another month or 2 and I'll speak to my GP about it. And sorry to all of you for late response I was working all day. @Shannon did I miss on something?

She deleted all her comments she was rude!

I really hope you get what you want. If not this month, then the next. Don’t give up 🤍

Hey 👋 Just remember your egg can drop any time from day 5 to day 23, and both mine dropped at day 7 which i was shocked about. Try and have sex every other day from when you finish your period. This means the sperm is better quality. I also recommend using a fertility lube it helps the sperm keep alive and gets it faster to the cervix. Plus it's more fun lol 😆 I've tried for 3 years and this is what finally worked for us. Good luck xx Also buy the karma sutra book. Have fun experimenting it really helps to alternate between evening and morning sex too. As sperm can be more alive in the morning for some people. I've done so much research and help people struggling on my tictok page. I just can't say rude bits so openly on there lol 😆

@Ebony Rose I agree! My son is 8 so he'll be at school come September and it will be just me and his little brother during the day. I'm looking forward to having some 1 on 1 time with the baby before I go back to work. Each to their own and everything but age gaps aren't so bad!

Hey girls, I thought it would be nice to check in. So I've got my forever loved period 2 days ago (early). @Katie I'll definitely keep trying for another 2 months or so the way you've said and after that I think it's time to speak to GP if unsuccessful ! Thank you all for being here for me and spending time to try to help me, I appreciate it a lot! 💗 @Shannon I wish for both of us our second little miracle comes soon lovely 🫶
