Doesn't seem like many people are on this forum. Does no one talk about secondary infertility? I have a son who will be 9 years old in December. We have been trying to give him siblings since he was 6mos old.

Most of the action happens in the cycle buddies threads.  Otherwise give it a bit of time, I'm sure you'll see some people around

Thanks Meary!
Well wishes on your pregnancy!

Best of luck with your Beta. My son was about 8 when we started trying for a sibling, and we ended up adopting when he was 11. He's now 15 and was NOT excited about this IVF (concerned we were wasting money etc) but now that we're almost ready to deliver, he's better/more into it. And his little sister (who we adopted) is TOTALLY into having a baby sister.

 

Secondary infertility sucks a$$. It's super hard. Hope it works out well for you!

Hello!

My DS is 4. We have been trying for 2 years. SI sucks.

I hadn't talked to anyone on here about it - right now I have a SI group on FB, but I'm branching out onto here!

Hi and welcome.

Sorry to hear you have SI too, but it's always nice to talk to people who can relate. My first IVF cycle was a bust. Waiting to start again. What are your plans? Hope you find this site helpful. Everyone is really understanding.

Hi, as some between you know, English is my 3rd language son...sorry i made alot of mistakes...

but I reallly want to share with you my happinnes and maybe give you a little bit of hope .. yes finally after 2 years triying for baby  sibbling  ...and 3 m/c (last one after a uii in may)

I get pregnat naturaly....at 6 weeks, I started to bleeding and I was devastaded watting for the worst...I had a ultrasound that showed a living pregnancy ...bleeding stop at 8 weeks, I have been follow for my gyn. every week, he has a little portable ecography thing...so we can see the baby, I also have done las week  my  12 weeks ultrasound and harmony test and everything looks  perfect.

 

 

 I haven't been  worry because as my friend says (the faith is the opposit to the fear...and i'm full of faith as never before)...but we keep super calm, don't say to anybody until 16 weeks , don't make any plans, no thinking about names  so....we'll see..

 

What I do different this time... my best friend in my country had a m/c, and her doctor told  her about take baby aspirin even before  try to get pregnant...I ask my dr in McGill and he said (that is nothing in my test that let him think   that it can help) but if i want i can take it without problem...so I have been taking baby aspirine and  as my friend does i will do it until 32 weeks ...I don't know it this made the difference but  even doctors don't konw..

 

So if someone there is looking for a baby sibbling ..I just want t to tell you..keep the faith and do everything that is in yours hands ...at least  in the future  you won't have any regrets.

 

good luck for everybody

Hi. I'm a fellow secondary infertility sufferer. We've been trying for our second for two and a half years. As you can see in my signature, it's been a rough go. My son is starting to ask for a baby sister and wondering why he doesn't have one. My one wish is that we can give him a sibling one day.
