Problems Trying for a Second - Support Groups or Forums

[Anonymous]

We have a beautiful almost 3 yo. We've been trying for a second for a year now with one ectopic requiring surgery, one chemical - perhaps more that I wasn't aware of - and now starting diagnostic consultations with an RE. Honestly, this has been a very difficult time both physically and emotionally. Just wondering if there are support groups in the area or online forums?

I'd be happy to join in, I'm sort of in the same boat. Have a 4 year old and after 2 years of trying both unassisted and assisted we haven't conceived yet. It is quite heartbreaking.

Me too - our son will turn 3 in 6 weeks, and we've been trying for 1.5 years for another. We are starting our last chance IVF cycle in a couple weeks - no more money to do more than that.

I've occasionally seen some Resolve groups for secondary infertility, but they never are near me.

I too have a 3.5 year old and have been trying for a second for close to a year now. I have been pregnant twice in the past 8 months, but miscarried both times.

I'm in. We've been TTC # 2 for 1.5 years; our son will turn 3 in October. I'm 40 and had two failed IUIs last year and one failed IVF cycle just two weeks ago. Getting ready for transfer of a frozen bastocyte. Am a bit hopeless as two weeks ago they transferred 3 and none took. I had never imagined that this would be so difficult this time around. If we keep this going we'll be in a financial crises. So frustrating...and I can't talk to many people about it but my husband. Urrghh! Sending baby vibes to all of you!

in the eact same boat -- almost 4 yo conceived naturally with virtually no effort; pregnant naturally a year ago that we had to terminate due to fatal chromosonal abnormality. after several failed IUIs now going on my 3rd IVF, hoping 3rd times the charm because we're running out of money -- and time -- i'm 41. good luck to everyone. you're not alone...

Hey ladies, maybe we can exchange emails to chat, give daily hopes,dreams, crushes? I know there are tons of IVF boards out there but some are hard to navigate and it would be nice to have a sort of "local" group to chat with- even if we never meet!
