Second baby

Just curious anyone who has had a second how long it took you to conceive? It happened straight away last time which I know we were very very lucky for so this time I've started tracking ovulation etc and it's already stressing me out because I know I really want this 🤦🏻‍♀️ I had a pretty tricky birth with 3rd/4th degree tears and I am just worried it's not going to happen for me and I'm damaged 😭 I know I have a prolapse already but everything healed pretty well. Don't know what the point of this post is for but needed to tell someone!

Took my 3 years to fall pregnant with my first. It took me a couple weeks with my second. One hell of a shock 😂

I also had a pretty tough birth with my first. However, I got pregnant with my second the first time trying. We were very fortunate 🙏

@charlotte thank you for this reassurance this is what I needed. I accept it isn't going to happen immediately but just worried I'm broken this time 😢

I got pregnant two months in a row when trying for a first, the first and second month of trying (first one was a chemical). We tried for 6 months for our second then I had a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks, now on our first month of trying again. We started trying for our second in May 2024. I thought it was going to be easy as it had been so easy the first time x

Got pregnant second time with my first and then got pregnant second time trying for my second but turned out to be chemical so now in the two week wait again 🤞🏻

Got pregnant the first time of trying with the 2nd but unfortunately miscarried this week 💔

@Elizabeth I'm so sorry to hear this 💔

@Jessica sorry to hear that. It's horrible the 2 week wait 🤦🏻‍♀️ sending baby dust this time

@HL sorry to hear 💔 really hope you get your baby soon 😘

Thanks, you too!

Both took 6 months to conceive, despite being regular as clockwork!

We conceived on our first try after my period came back. I was breastfeeding so didn't come back until May 2024 and baby born this Feb. Good luck with it all. X

I just had my second 8 weeks ago, birth was so much easier, just a second degree tear this time but the recovery was so so much easier. I saw a perineal midwife while pregnant about my scares/damage and she really reassured me that birth is so much easier second time and unlikely to tear nearly as much. Conception was a couple of weeks for the second, 9 months for our first. Good luck ❤️

Took me a year

Took about 6 months with my first (May 2023 baby) and then got pregnant first time trying with my second but sadly that ended in miscarriage. I then got pregnant straight after the miscarriage (no period) with my baby girl who was born in January x

@Chloe this gives me so much hope after our miscarriage this week 🥹 xx

Well have had the worst nausea now for the second day in a row and still negative tests 🤢 only 11 dpo. I never get nausea before my period so not sure what to think but I hate it

Straight away with our first 😳 then panicked when that didn’t happen with the second 🙈😂 Think it was 4 months but we’d decided we were going to wait a few months as we had a holiday and two weddings coming up. I do wonder how much my stopping stressing had to do with things! Good luck 🤞🏻❤️

@Elizabeth so sorry for your loss ❤️ Stay hopeful, I hope you will have your rainbow baby soon xx
