AF due in 2 days according to my flo app. and 14dpo. this was afternoon testing 🤷🏻‍♀️

I want to try for another baby already but my sister and her partner have said they’re going to try in July for a baby. I think if I get pregnant again before her she might be jealous… should I wait?

Had 2 faint lines on clear blue but know these are not trusted!

I don't feel I'm bonding to my second child. He's incredibly difficult and isn't easy to settle. he's probably colic and has reflux. Often cries when not feeding or asleep. Today I literally ran home from the supermarket because he was crying and people were looking. (yes I do care what people think, no I won't sto...

Hi guys, I’m a first time mum and have a bit of a dilemma. I have been late for almost 4 days and I decided to get a home test and it was a very faint line. I decided to get 4 more tests all from clear blue and it turned out I’m pregnant. However, I went to the hospital to confirm my pregnancy and the doctor said th...

Hi! I am currently TTC- I go to a fertility doctor and am undergoing IUI. I was told I cannot get my heart rate above 140 because they want to promote blood flow to my uterus. Has anyone been told something similar? For me this basically means only very short slow walks…

...Other than the obvious. I have PCOS, I've never caught an LH peak and have periods every 5-6 months. My BMI is high (40). We've been TTC since Feb 2023. I can't have IVF help due to my BMI. OH sperm analysis was pretty normal. Has anyone been in this position and conceived? What did you do? I understand weight l...

Might sound like a stupid question but how concerned should I be with letting my children play with other children that live in a homeless shelter? They are their cousins who they've never met before but are now coming into their life. I'm asking because every time we have a doctors appointment we are always asked i...

Is anyone going through post partum months later ?

Is this definitely positive?🥰

Does it look like I’ve hit peak yesterday?

Do tests reach a point where they don’t get any darker? I’m 5+4 and my test this morning was no different to my test 2 days ago.

This is such a long process, and gets harder every month. It took 2 years with my 1st with 2 losses so feel like ttc for so long, and really affects relationship. Sex is just for baby making.

You know that movie scenes or jokes when someone is searching for something while holding it? Well, personally, I've already thought it is a bit exaggerated and not realistic! Well, not anymore! I have a 7 weeks old, I'm breastfeeding him, and he suffers from very bad acid reflux! I've lost count on how many times I...

I’m 20 days late took the bottom two test first I see a faint line but idk?

How do I know if I am ovulating each month if my periods aren’t always the same length every month. They change between 5-7 days in a month

Looking for advice: if you could go back to the beginning of your fertility journey, what tests / doctors would you visit first, to save yourself time of trying. I am very inexperienced and only started reading about fertility. I used to have high testosterone and had a diagnosis of PSOc in the past, but haven't bee...
