Just need some positivity <3

my daughter is 15 months this week and since she was born I never went on the pill as I always wanted to have 2 siblings that are close in age. I got my period back when she was 8 months although I had cramping around my period time of the month for at least 2 months before that, my husband and I have regular intercourse each month but still nothing has happened.I feel a little selfish complaining especially as I have a daughter already and many people on here are struggling with conceiving their first. Don’t get me wrong I love my daughter more than words can say, just recently I’ve been getting a little disheartened as 15 months have gone by now (it took 2 months of trying to get pregnant with our first) just feeling like I need some positivity in my life now and some good news!

Are you breastfeeding? Are your cycles regular again? you've only had your period back 7 months so it hasnt been that long even tho your saying 15mth with no contraception.

Thank you for your reply. I was breast feeding and went down to 2x day at around 8 months then completely stopped when she turned one. My periods were coming one a month but not always the same time each month but recently it has gone back to the same time each month..

I think part of my down is that I keep on hearing of everyone pregnant/having babies and feel like in the only one (even though obviously in not!) 😩 my cousin just had a baby this week and my sis in law and another cousin are all due within the next few months

That could be why if your periods have been abit off, have you been doing ovulation tests to check your ovulating or when you do?

I’ve never done an ovulation test before but I do track my periods, they are usually 30days apart.

Thank you for listening even just writing this post and knowing someone is listening already helped me I feel much better thanks 😊

Hi,

I think all of us have right to feel anxiety, and to have ideas how our family life is structured. So the moment we see some delays with our plans being fulfilled we just worry and get sort of upsetting feelings.

I think the fact that you have a baby (I do have to!) already doesn’t change much if you always wanted few kids yourself, I think I know where your worry is and this is the same with every dream like! I guess(in my case) my baby helped me a lot to go through wen TTC second, he gave me also in time sort of acceptance that I may never be a mum again, and this is huge thing!

But you are in right place and I think you will get lots of support here from other ladies going the same experiences.

Just wanted to wish you well and I hope soon you will became mum again, surely having one baby there is lots of chances this happen again to you in own time 😘😘😘
