Would love to hear some of you ladies' stories on your secondary infertility journey. Been feeling all alone lately and beginning to fear my son will always be an only child. How long have you tried? What treatments or supplements have you tried?

Here's my journey.

3.5 years of not preventing as we always knew we wanted a second baby. It took only 4 months for baby #1 so we were blindsided when month after month that second line didn't appear. We started <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android">tracking ovulation</a>, doing supplements, 5 months of clomid and eventually femara, and 1 failed <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> and never once a positive.😭

My progesterone is low and the RE chalked this up to luteal phase defect, although the next Dr believes it is actually lean PCOS. 🤷‍♀️ so medications it is which really make me feel horrible.

My husband suffers from Crohn's disease and has been pretty sick for the past year. 😢We've tried new meds and everything the Drs recommend and although they say this doesn't effect his fertility, his SA came back with 0% normal sperm.😞 We are currently trying to get him into a top specialist in our area to get him reassessed. He's got constant pain and fatigue and that alone has put a huge stress on our family.

I get asked weekly when we will have another and get so many negative or pushy comments. It just hurts so badly because I simply don't know if/ when it'll happen. I keep trying to be strong but feel like maybe its just never gonna happen for us again.

Who else is going through this? What's your story?
