[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I feel similarly.  However,  we are actively trying for 2 with donor egg.  I had nothing left from first IVF 5 years ago.  I have found the second time around to be easier.  I am familiar with the process, to busy to care about the details and Google search everything, and basically just following the instructions.  Also, mentally seems easier since we feel sooooo lucky to have number 1.  If to works we won the lottery twice.  We've had one failed tranfsfer so far.  Logistics and care for current child are hard while i am in treatment.  Otherwise,  it is OK.  [/quote]

OP here. Thanks for this. I honestly feel like I only just recently (like in the last year) emerged from a fog that had overtaken my life for about four years. I had wicked Post-partum depression and anxiety too. I love my daughter and she is the light of my life but maybe I don't even really want to go back to having an infant again. It really wrecked me. Maybe I'm done. [/quote]

If you don't want an infant, what would be the point of trying for a 2nd naturally? if it works it would result in an infant...[/quote]

NP.  Because infants aren't infants very long.  I have 2 kids and fought really hard to have both of them.  And I also don't enjoy the infant stage.  Both those things can be true.[/quote]

OK. But it comes back to the question whether OP really wants a 2nd child or not.[/quote]
