What do you do to stay positive?
After almost 3 years of trying for number 2 i am barely holding on. I am so so so grateful for my son. I also have this urge for a second one though and it kinda breaks my heart not being able to give him a sibling. He is so caring, loving but also lonely. It’s one thing to play with your Mom and a completely different one to play with another child. 🥺

I have looked for that but I don’t have it close by. He is 4 1/2 Thank you 🙏
Hi I'm in a similar situation to you my little boy is 4 and we've been trying for number 2 for a few years now , we're accepting that it might not happen for us . I'm so grateful for the little boy I have but it hurts that we won't have a second baby
We have done multiple iui’s and will have an ivf consultation soon. We have unexplained secondary infertility. Are you seing a specialist?

I am so sorry you are going through this, it's such a prickly feeling that would pop up whenever I was with my oldest. Have you tried an abdominal massage therapist? It definitely helped me but she also was so amazing at helping me appreciate the journey as much as it was not ideal. Being on the other side of this wow how much I miss playing with my oldest and having the energy for all her shenanigans. You don't mention how old is your son, I am assuming 4 or 5? What helped me at that time is getting into activities that were either challenging for her and fun for me ( as much as I could tolerate the whining) or going places that triggered her sense of awe and in term for me. It wasn't bulletproof, I would still get triggered by seeing families with siblings, but it helps to have those memories.
