[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I just haven't made peace with the situation yet because I had it so easy the first time around (easy time getting pregnant, easy pregnancy, easy delivery) and then nothing at all for four years.  Everyone else in my social circle is on baby #2 or #3 and it's hard being the only family who is one and done, not by choice.  It doesn't help that my child is now asking for a baby all the time and complaining about being lonely.

And now my Gyn says I'm going to go through early menopause (I'm 41 and my cycles have just gotten very irregular lately).  Gyn says I'll be through menopause most likely by age 44.  This is very upsetting to me, but I've had peri-menopausal symptoms for awhile now that have lately gotten worse.  So the whole early menopause thing combined with the secondary infertility is making me feel miserable.  I already feel like a complete failure and now the early menopause thing is making me feel old.[/quote]

You're not alone. First pregnancy at 37, conceived easily, best experience ever. Nothing but miscarriages since we started trying for #2. It's hard to accept and stop trying; it's hard to keep trying and live in perpetual limbo, holding onto car seats and baby clothes "just in case."
