🤣🤣❗️ this man really trying to entertain me with having another baby. It ain’t happening YET maybe closer to when he is 2 years old.

Do any other step mamas feel trapped in terms of parenting style, in that you can’t develop your own style with your own child(ren) because there is a style already adopted with your step children and it wouldn’t be fair to parent them in a different way? If so, how did you find/navigate this? I’m struggling with ...

Hi all We took our 3 year old son to an alpaca farm today.. he is the only kid at the farm and is quite excited and restless to go in to touch alpacas and feed them .. my son is quite vocal and is echolaliac .. One of the couple from the group seemed annoyed of him .. and adding to this my son happened to bump in...

Baby boy is now 9 days old, and for some reason I’m really letting it get to me that we’ve received fewer cards/gifts than we did first time around 😢 I know that sounds really shallow but it’s still a huge life event for us, but I guess people seem to think you must be fine second time? My love language is gift…

I can't see but what is the result?

How do people decide when it’s the right time to have a second child, or it your even sure if you want to? Me and my partner want to but we are so stuck on the fence as we have 2 crazy dogs. I just can’t bare the thought of 2 high energy dogs, a toddler and a new born! Shall o just do it and pray we all stay sane...

How do y’all moms handle (emotionally) your child/ children having visitation out of state/ in the state which you live with the other parent that you don’t trust wholeheartedly? When does it get easier? How do you cope with it?

I am just growing more and more in love with my little man. His dad decided he’s already raised 2 kids (my bonus kids are 5 and 7 now) and he wants to step back and let me take on the majority of the baby care. I’m shocked and saddened but feeling stronger and empowered everyday. Keeping a grateful heart! Our God is...

Please can you tell me about your results from an egg retrieval with high AMH 👌🏼 xx

Hi ladies So I was supposed to get my period September 12th. I took 3 tests all negative and all different times. I called the GYN and they are sending me for blood work and I have an appointment October 10th. I never missed a period before (except when I was pregnant) I have always been super regular. I’m one year...

9dpo and 10dpo...I've fiddled with the photo on my camera settings as I'm (pretty) sure I can see lines on both but not 100% convinced and dont want to get my hopes up too soon. An original photo in comments.

That’s it, I officially cannot test anymore. 18 DPO and I am as far as I’m going to get on tests. I’m hoping this baby’s 3 angel siblings are guiding this baby to the world this time 👼🏻👼🏻👼🏻 🤍 🌈 my 7 week scan cannot come quick enough x

I took a test yesterday (26th September) and took one today. Today’s positive line is lighter than yesterday’s. Both tests were took with my first urine of the day. Is it possible that it’s because they’re different branded tests (yesterdays is an ultra early test, todays is a early detection test) I’m absolutely ...

I am STRUGGLING. 8 weeks pregnant with an 11.5 month old and I'm miserable. I'm so bloody tired and feeling disgustingly sick. Is this the hardest bit lol because boy oh boy

Does this mean ovulation is near by??

I only tested because my skin is bad, and I only get really bad skin when pregnant (usually). I feel like I see something real faint, but I'm not sure? My positive early tests have always been a little darker. Can someone help, please?

Hi everyone, This post is more of a rant than anything else… and I am curious to know if anyone else has encountered something similar. My 11month old is the first grandchild of my family. I expected my Mum to be a lot more present and interested than she is. What doesn’t help is that she lives about a 4hr drive awa...
