[quote=Anonymous]I have an only child.  Got pregnant easily with my daughter, easy pregnancy and delivery, and then started TTC #2 when she turned 1.  Found out I had unexplained secondary infertility when she was 15 months old.

We tried for 5 years to have baby #2.  I never got a positive pregnancy test in all that time.

It was really, really tough since I got pregnant on the first try the first time around and never imagined I would have infertility issues, plus our tests were all normal.  The preschool years were especially tough--everyone was having second and third kids.  Even Kindergarten was tough--lots of moms having more kids.

Now my daughter is in early elementary and it's gotten a little better, most of my friends have completed their families by now so there are no new pregnancy announcements.  But I'm the only one with an only child in my social circle and I am excluded a lot, since all of my friends have a 7 year old and then a younger sibling, and the others get together without me since the younger siblings all play together.[/quote]
