Someone posted on here a few months ago with same problem, would be worth trawling through. I've only had one child 16 months ago so can't comment, apart from saying only 70% get pregnant in the first year so there's still time, worth going to GP though for fertility tests. Good luck!

We have been trying for over a year and I know how disheartening it is every month when you realise you are not pregnant. However on average it takes a year for a couple to get pregnant if everything fertility wise is ok so therefore about half of couples take longer than a year. When you get to a year I would see your gp and they can carry out fertility tests as things can change since your first pregnancy. Good luck!

Not what you're looking for?
