Rant/Vent Feeling pretty bummed

My daughter is almost 4.5, and all she wants is a sibling. We got pregnant with her first try. I guess I was naive for assuming it would be the same with the second. I’m feeling resentful, and bitter. I don’t understand how we can spend all this time “trying not to get pregnant” when I can’t even get pregnant when I’m trying… doing all the things. I’m 8 DPO and emo.

I was the same. I ended up diagnosed with Ashermans from my firsts birth. Have you done any testing?

Interesting. No, I have actually never heard of that. I did have a 72 hour labor with my daughter so I wonder if that’s a possibility. How did you get diagnosed?

I had an ultrasound that showed bright spots on my uterus, followed up with a HyCoSy that didn’t work then hysteroscopy confirmed it and removed it.

Same here. Pregnant the first try with my son 3 years ago. Now we have been trying for a year this month and I have been pregnant twice. One ectopic that needed surgery and one early mc around 6 weeks. Good luck and baby dust to you! Hopefully this is your cycle
