intro (older child mentioned)

in Trouble TTC
Hi everyone. My husband and I have been ttc for about 2 years now. Our dr thinks we are having issues because I had my daughter at such a young age. I was 17 but I also was a late bloomer. He also had a reversal so I'm sure that plays a part. I did my 6th iui last sunday and am in the dreaded 2ww. I am trying not to symptom spot or even think about it this time. I got my hopes up last time. After 5 I just am so negative about it working this time. Only 1 more week to wait.

    Welcome! So sorry about your struggle with IF. Isn't it tough both to have our hopes up or to feel hopeless? Totally unfair! I hope the rest of this 2WW goes quickly for you. :)
