Why is it so hard to conceive baby #2

Ashley

Anyone else find it more difficult to get pregnant with your second? I'm so bummed today. My period is due tomorrow and I have spotting. Been ttc since May but tracking since August. My first we weren't even truly trying. We just stopped using bc and said if we get pregnant then great. Now we really want our second but it hasn't been so easy. When did you all finally get your BFP? I know everyone is different.

My cycles are long. Typically ovulate late between CD 17 and 24. And have a 15 day luteal phase. My dr wants us to keep trying until we hit 1 year. We are going on 10 months now. Which I know is much less than some. But it feels like it should have happened by now. 😕

I try to stay positive for the most part, but sometimes its easy to just be bummed out. Just like to hear similar stories and know that there is hope or if anyone can relate.
