Sara Dishes on Her 2nd Pregnancy After Using the twoplus Applicator
Interview responses were edited for clarity.
Q: Hi, Sara! Tell us a bit about yourself! How old are you and your partner? Where do you live in the U.K., and what do you both work as?
A: I am 27 and my husband is 29. We live in the Suffolk countryside! I am a HR advisor and my husband is a land surveyor.
Q: Congratulations on getting pregnant with the twoplus Applicator on your 2nd pregnancy! May I know why you chose home insemination over other options like continuing to try naturally or considering fertility treatments like IVF?
A: Thank you! We chose the twoplus Applicator because it was a method we could do in our own home, it was affordable and had good reviews!
I felt as though TTC wasn’t working naturally, so wanted to give something else a go.
Q: I understand you were trying to conceive (TTC) for 4 months. What were the top 3 challenges you faced in your conception journey?
A: The challenges we faced were a busy lifestyle and having a toddler to look after.
We were TTC over the summer and had quite a few holidays so had a busy schedule. Our toddler was also not sleeping well at night at the time so was in our bed most nights!
The other challenge was the pressure of TTC, which made the whole process not as enjoyable as we would’ve hoped for!
Q: Were you diagnosed with any medical conditions relating to fertility by a licensed healthcare professional, and what tests did you do?
A: No, we weren’t diagnosed with any medical conditions.
