DH and I have a 2 year old with in the process of trying for baby #2. It took 5 months to conceive the first time (10 mth off pill, 5 months with no protection and it then happened). We have tried for 4 mths so far and still nothing 2nd time around.
This time around it is different because since my first, my cycle is different and I can tell by all the signs and symptoms when I am or are and about to ovulate. So we have sex during those times and nothing.
I just dont understant how some can have one night stands or try for the first time and suceed right away. Then there are others that cant conveice and have problems which need assistance from doctors, etc.
All I want is to have our second child and live our lives happy as a family. I'm not getting any younger and my daughter will most likely be 3 or close to it if it were to happen now. I just want them to be close in age and be done with baby # 2, work on my weight and figure again before slower metabolism and gravity takes over (LOL).
Any suggestions on my next step? Any in store items that are useful? Such as ovulation kits, etc? I tried the temperature thing for the 1st one, made sure we had sex when my discharge was like egg whites (read it was when ovulating), I've bought ovulation kits and none worked. I would buy enough one time to last me my whole cycle (got rather expensive and a waste of money) just to make certain with no positive results. Then I would buy and take a pregnancy test up to 2 days before my period. Nothing. Then when I was actually pregnant, I said I wasnt buying a pregnancy test because I would waste my money again. My pants seemed to fit snuge and thought well, its the bloating again because my period was coming... and what do ya know, I was pregnant.
Some always said be very carefule after your first, its much easier, etc. Come to find so fare not true.
