I have a beautiful, healthy 19 month old DD, I know that I am incredibly lucky to have her and so grateful. It took us 2 and a half years to get pregnant and then I had a pretty terrible pregnancy which ended in me getting admitted to the hospital at 36 weeks with preeclampsia(sp?) and getting induced at 37 weeks only to have to have a c-section 24 hours later. But it was all worth it and I want to do it again so badly (maybe a little easier this time, but I'll take whatever I can get). We have been trying to give her a little sister or brother for 14 months with no luck. Unfortunately AF only visits about 2x a year I have had numerous tests done and the dr's could never find a reason. They say everything is, or is doing, what it should be. So we are taking the next step this month Aug 25 and going to see my obgyn and getting put on clomid. I was really hoping this next step wouldn't be nessecary as AF was due in August (if you can call it due, before my DD they were 6 months apart, but the last 2 were 5 mos apart) so we have been BD'ing(I'm new here I think that's the abbrev.?) everyother day to make sure, but tonight I started spotting just a very little but I'm afraid now it's hopeless and we missed our chance. If anyone has any thoughts or similar stories I would love to hear them. I am so disappointed.

I feel almost bad for wanting another one so badly, I really am grateful that we got my DD, I am a SAHM and she is my everything. One of the big reasons I want another one is for her. My sister and I are very close and I can't imagine my DD not having that it breaks my heart.(Just what I need another reason to feel guilty).

AF arrived a little while ago. This stinks!

I wish you good luck! And don't ever feel bad about wanting another one.

Sorry AF showed. Good luck with the clomid though!

Sorry to hear this wasn't your month. I know how you feel when your AF only comes every so often you try so hard to try and get pregnant on your own and try to time it then it shows up anyway. I have been TTC my first child for over a year now, and like you AF shows up either every 3 months, 4, 5 or 6 months whenever it feels like it basically. I just went to see a new OB/GYN because my tests results all come back normal as well and he diagnosed me with PCOS. Did you have to go on medicine to concieve your first child? Well good luck and I hope your stay is short I know how frustrating it is! And don't feel guilty for wanting another just because we may not be able to concieve on our own doesn't mean we shouldn't be able to have more than one.

Thanks so much. I actually got pregnant with DD naturally, we pretty much gave up and we were not preventing. It was my 7th month with no AF and that's the longest my dr would let me go so she gave me a prescription for provera and I just had this funny feeling about taking it so I waited 2 weeks and then called my dr and asked her to order a pregnancy test just to make sure. I used to work at the lab where I had my test so I was telling my friend what was going on and she asked if I had any symptoms I said my BB's hurt alot but I didn't think it was anything. I called a little while later to get my results I spoke to someone in the lab cause it was a friday and I didn't want to wait to call the dr till monday. It was another friend of mine and she said it's negative and I was sad as always but then she said wait you better sit down, they just changed it to BFP. She had them run it again and it was BFP (it was weak). I ran out and bought 2 tests they both had a very light line, anyway it turned out I was 2 and a half weeks pregnant. I love to tell this story! If I tested right away when the dr gave me the provera I would have lost my DD-the thought terrifies me still.

Anyway I hope you get your BFP too!!!
