TTC #4. Rude or nah?

Question

Hello glow community, I am currently ttc baby #4. Been with my dh since high school and we both always knew we wanted a large family. But I notice most of the ladies here are ttc #1. I feel like I should join another forum because I feel bad posting my issues ttc#4 when a lot of people here are struggling to have #1.

Answer

Maybe I shouldn't weigh in because I'm not in either boat, no kids nor am I try, but I feel like whether it's baby 1 or 4, the struggle and heartache is just as real. As women we should try to support each other regardless, there are always people out there with worse problems, but it doesn't make your own struggles any easier and belittling someone's problems, like trouble conceiving a fourth child when someone else is still trying to conceive their first, is not going to make anyone's life easier...so please don't feel pushed out of or out of place in a forum just because your problem is different.

Answer

I think the fact that you have had 3 pregnancies before gives you insight to share with those of us who are TTC#1.  I want there to be people like you on here to help answer questions and share your experiences! :) Baby dust to you as many times as you want! Xo

Answer

I've been trying for #1 for over 5 years now. First bfp in June of this year, miscarried in July. Even still I don't get bothered by women who have tried for a month, or two months, or a year. I'm not bothered by women who are trying for number 2 or 4 or even 10. I remember how I felt when it didn't happen in the first 6 months. When it didn't happen after a year. After 4 years. Now at 5 years and 4 months. We all think and feel things differently and I can appreciate and understand the struggle on many levels, not all of them, but many. Your fertility has no bearing on mine, just as mine has no bearing on yours. Post away! This is a support forum. Not a judge someone else journey or play the my journey is worse for x reasons forum.

Dont do that. Dont let them get to you. We are TTC #2, and you #4. We all may have some issues and any advice and help is a good thing. Please stick around, you never know what you might read that might help

Answer

I feel you i have 3 sons and mc twice this year. I am pregnant again with #4 .when i would join ttc group i sometimes felt bad because i already had kids and some were trying for #1. I kind of felt sad at one point because after i had my first mc and posted that i wanted to try asap. some females were like well you already have three. Im trying for #1.

Tbh i never thought i have mc or it would be hard ttc my 4th. Some females like advice from btdt mothers but some are mean. Im in the june pregnancy board on another site and i comment but dont post because everyone on the board is expecting number 1 or 2 .i feel like if i say im with baby #4 I'll get shunned lol.

Answer

I'm right with you. We have 3 and are currently expecting our 4th and last. Im glad you asked this question because I feeling this exact same way.
