emly replied. I'm very worried about you. That you face trouble in TTC. But the good thing is that you are already a mother of a boy. I think the main problem behind this is your birth control pills. Usually, the birth control pill is the main reason for overweight. Firstly, you should have to lose your weight. If you really want to become a mother again. You take a healthy diet like fruit and vegetables. You have to avoid oily food. When you will lose your weight, Then it will be easy for you to conceive again. I wish your son will become brother soon. Best of luck.

I wish you good luck, & hope you miss your period this time.
Take care

NP replied. Hello Neena,
Well if it goes like 25-30-25-30 since you have been to oman, then go with that one....i wish you have started having intercourse since november started...& keep go on for 2-3 days...as you wish for 30 days this time...well if you haven't missed any of your periods then, you are not pregnant. have you went to gyn?
& there is no problem in having an unplanned pregnancy..look at me, i just got married before 2 and half months ago, & i am pregnant of almost 2 weeks. & as you said, were using condoms.....were your husband was taking condoms, or you both were..have you taken any birth control pills. Or ever you ever pregnant between those 8 years...sorry if i am being too personal...
try couple of months since you are trying for 4 months...& yes, that's true what ever god wishes, it sure will be good...
Good luck
bye
take care
NP replied. Hello Neena,
I can understand what you are going through, & you don't want too much gap between your childrens...
Well i have a question, did you had your periods of 25-30-25-30, when you were in dubai, or when you were not in dubai...
next time try this way, have intercourse for aleast a week if possible, i know it's hard for you noth, if you are working & get stressed...but if you can do that, then sure try for it...& you can also go for alternate days...try having intercourse around lets assume at 25 days so try from 11th to 18th day...if 30 then try from 12th to 20th...that might help you...
Or it might be, that your husband has low sperm...did you get any tests done until now? or are you going to any doctor/gyn...?
Well try doing that this period, and/or have you miss any of your periods until now? or during your periods do you have cramping?
well i have to go, my husband just got back, i wish you will start loosing your weight & try not to eat much food which contains fat in it...
let me know if you have any questions regarding this...& if you don't wish to say it, let me know, i can do something else too.
Bye
Take care
NP replied. Hello Neena
How are you?
How's gym & walking going on?
Hope hope you are fine...
did you found out anything...& did you tried on your 14th day...
I hope you are doing fine
don't overstress

NP replied. Thanks for you lovely complement. & keep that up. going to gym & walking & things like that, if possible don't eat a whole lot of dairy products which contains much fat....

sravanthi replied. i am little late in reading your message..like u i had my first one within one year of my marriage and it was unplanned and i was 55kgs and 22 and gained lot of weight(90 lbs) and it took me 3 years to get back to 63 kgs and i wanted to have second child like you i thought i will get pragnent in one cycle bit after 10 months i saw a ob/gyn and my tubes and overies are normal. and doc told me that women's reproductive system will start to decline from 27 (i just had my 27 th birthday) and weight will also playa factor and she put me on folic acid and a prenatal vitmin . so we decided we will take some time off from all this baby making stress and i continued my regular 1 hour walks and eating right. to my shock i got pranant next month.so to answer to your question weigt and age are factors even though you had one child.
NP replied. Hello Neena

hi,neha,no i have developed this cycle of 30,25,30,25 after coming to oman before 4 mnts.before that when i was in dubai since jan-june i remember it was bet. 25-27 days,never 30.my last cycle was for 25 days so this time i am expecting after 30.my 1st day of last menstrual cycle was 11th oct,and in this mnt.i conceived on following days--20,21,22,24,and25th oct and today did home pregnancy test which again came negative and that's why i am upset today so now i am expecting my periods on 10 oct if 30 days cycle.yes i do get pain 1st to days of my cycle and no i have not missed my periods uptill now.they r very regular.and about my husband's sperm count i don't think there is any problem he is also quite healthy and as i told u before my 1st pregnancy was unplanned and i got pregnant just in 61/2mnts.after our marriage.all these yrs.were taking precaution just by using condom or removing out thinking if any mistake happens i will get pregnant, now when i want since last 4 mnts when i could convince my husband (as he was saying no only for 2nd)it is not happening or may be will take some more time i hope......what ever GOD wishes,it will always happen for good.thnks for ur concern.bye and take care.
