It took us 7 years to get pregnant with Alex and DH is keen to start on no 2 soon as he feels that the longer we wait the harder it will become again do you ladies have any thoughts on this? I had a laparoscopy and all that entails just over a year before A was concieved and I was found to have endo as well as a few other probs that were fixed (unless of course my tube kinks itself again). I want to wait until A is a year old but am not totally bothered on when we have another as my pregnancy and birth were both way to easy but just wanted to know if I can make DH wait or if we should just ditch the condoms now.
Thanks heaps |

my motto is start trying for whatever minimum age gap you want..so if you want at least an 18 month age you start trying at 9 months.
I have often heard of couples taking years to conceive their first but their 2nd was conceived with only a few months. no real other advice to give but all the best :) ------------- http://lilypie.com">

It's totally a personal choice and good luck with whatever you both decide. My sis was in a similar situation. She had DS1 and then waited a year and started trying again. It took 5 long hard emotionally fraught years, 3 mcs and surgery to remove endo before she became pregnant with DS2, 7 months after DS2 was born she became pregnant with DS3 without even trying (literally, it was a lovely wee surprise). You never know what can happen. -------------
