Heaven help us, but we've been trying to make a little sibling for our surprise miracle 21 month old. I got my periods back about 1 year ago, and we sort of started after that, but I haven't been reliably ovulating until recently. We've been pretty systematically trying for several months now, and I'm around CD 26.
The first time, we were together for 2 years, and I had a history of infertility (same relatively rare issues as his first wife, believe it or not...) and we didn't want to get crazy about it, or get our hopes up, so we just decided to let nature take it's course. Still can't believe it worked, with my history! Anyway, hoping that our little peanut will have some company--we feel bad that she's only got one grandparent left, and her older half sister is 20 and not really around...it would be so nice if we could get her somebody to go through life with, since we're not going to be around forever! (her dad is 10 years older than I am!)
Anyway, we haven't tried any medical interventions, mostly because we just don't want to get too crazy/disappointed/caught up. But, I don't know..maybe we will look into it if this doesn't get going, already!

hi. I wanted you to know that you are not alone. my husband and I are trying for number two for our family because I hate the thought of our son growing up alone!
I have only been trying for about 4 months and I am tracking everything!! I hope that both of us will have good luck in the coming months!
