Never even knew this board existed....

in Secondary IF
But I'm glad it does! Someone from my local board referred me here. I read some post and I can definitely relate with the majority of you. We've been trying for #2 for about 7 months now and it's been very frustrating considering #1 was somewhat a surprise and happened only a month after we got married. I have PCOS and on Met. Supposedly, per the RE, DD was pretty much a "fluke". I don't have many people IRL to talk to about it because they don't know anything about PCOS and think because I had DD, then I just need to relax and it will happen. And then, I have some friends that are trying for #1 and not successful, and so I don't talk to them about my issues because at least I have DD. I'm very lost and sometimes feel guilty that I'm being "greedy" for wanting another kid.

Re: Never even knew this board existed....
I felt the same as you many times sitting in the RE's office over the past year...I'm here trying to have #2 while so many are there trying to have #1...but that doesn't make my desires any less or hurt any less.
Welcome to the board and good luck with your treatments! Make sure not to be a stranger and keep us posted!!
I will definitely try to be a "regular".
What do we call ourselves? Bumpies or nesties?
Bumpies wigs me out, personally! I still use Nesties. But welcome and GL- I totally could have written your post- DS was a "fluke" and knowing what I know now about my body, I have no clue how I ever got pregnant without help! Glad to hear you're working with an RE- hopefully you'll be getting a BFP soon!
We are so happy to have you, although we wish you were not going through so much. Many of us here have felt how you do!!!! Unless you have Secondary IF I just don't think folks can understand. I remember my first IF journey I was like: "if I get one child I will never want anything more" but our hearts don't work that way! Oh and don't get me started on people's "comments" like: just relax
Welcome welcome!!! Hope you don't stay here too long!
Hey, I was told to go camping and I would get pg. Yes, because getting my arse bitten off by bugs, sleeping on the ground and having no decent ablution facilities around is bound to make me horney as hell. As well as fix my MEDICAL issues. Idiot.
You are right. People who have never been through this do not understand.
Welcome to the board. While it's always great to see a new face it sucks that it has to be because of IF. Good luck and I hope you get your BFP soon!
Welcome!!!
I totally get where you are coming from about feeling "greedy"....lol.
We really aren't greedy, we just want more children and there is nothing wrong with that. It is very admirable to respect your friends who are still TTTC#1. I was in their position not too long ago, and being there was one of the worst experiences of my life.
Being here is no picnic, but i am in a much better place having one this time around. I just hope that i can have a # 2 too:)
Good luck!
