We got pregnant within a year with our first, and then tried (and tried and tried) for #2, finally giving up when she was 6. My hubby is diabetic, I had a tumor on one ovary and had to get it removed, the cards were just against us. Dr's basically said to count our lucky stars we had one, and not wanting to spend her whole college fund on another we gave up.
2 years after we gave up I thought I was diabetic (peeing lots and SO tired), went to the dr and found out that not only was I diabetic I was 8 weeks pregnant. Surprise! Insulin dependent from 9 weeks on, 2092 pokes later our spitfire was born. Hubby had lost about 30 lbs within a short period of time when his insulin was under control finally, and boom got pregnant. I guess my point is insulin levels for the dad can also play a huge role!
