I have been searching the internet for exactly such information and your posting has been the most helpful personal information I have found so far. My husband and I tried nine years before being blessed with our son three months ago (I have high FSH). I recently experienced several days of EWCM, my first postpartum . I got excited and was disappointed when I did not ovulate! Your story is encouraging; I am breastfeeding fulltime and will try to be patient to wait until he is six/seven months and starting to eat solids to expect ovulation. Thanks for posting your story!

I have other things that have to be sorted out too but the bottom line is we try again in about 4 or 6 months time with scans to check the size of follicle etc and go from there. We have applied for adoption but not with bated breath - it is going to take a long time. Sorry for getting the name wrong - I read it too fast!

Sorry to hear you've had bad news at the clinic. Are you going to stay and do some sort of treatment with them? But great news about the adoption. Have you started the process yet? I know what a long, hard process it is in this country, especially at the moment. Very best of luck with everything. Lorna – thanks! Sorry to hear you’ve had bad news at the clinic.

But great news about the adoption. Have you started the process yet? I know what a long, hard process it is in this country, especially at the moment. Very best of luck with everything.

I went to Kilkenny Clinic and found out a lot was wrong in fact but we're getting there. I'll write again when I have more time but have started a new blog too - a positive one recording our journey to adoption although we haven't quite given up yet on having a natural baby but still intend to adopt, which ever way it goes. Not going to do IVF/ICSI simply cos of the emotional toll. Have a wonderful Christmas, when is your baby due? Fiona,

Hope you are ready for the sleepless nights again or have they ever ended? Hope you have the little fella home for Christmas day, what a gift! The boys are brilliant, Rian is such a gem. He is so happy all the time, I swear the child is an angel sent to me. He has no clue about Christmas (he's 9 1/2 mths) but big brother is excited enough for both of them. Really looking forward to Christmas with TWO kids!!!! Please post or have the hubby post when the little man arrives, I will be checking in all the time. Best of Luck Fiona!
