When do dads start to feel more connected to babies?

I’ve been struggling a bit with my partner. He had his doubts about having kids before we had our baby who is now 4 months old. He recently said that having our baby confirmed all the doubts he had in his mind that led him to not want kids (loss of freedom and flexibility, impact on our relationship etc) which are a...

Positive

looks like I got my positive this morning. I had tried a few days ago but lines were so faint I thought they might have been evap lines maybe. But this morning there’s a clear plus sign there. I’ve got a 7 year old and a 1 year old so now I’ll have 2 under 2 😖 how do people manage

I’ve done consistent ovulation tests using the premom strips and my levels keep going up and down however with the digital blue digital sticks it kee...

IVF cycles and cost

I really hope this question makes sense…. If you have IVF and they get a good number of eggs and they are all fertilised etc but only put one in you and you freeze the others, if that first cycle fails would it make another cycle cheaper as they’d be able to use the spare eggs? I’m very aware a round of IVF is expe...

Can your peak be really short?

First month tracking LH after an ectopic. It was high this morning then back to low by 5pm, could my peak be that quick that it could’ve happened between the last 2 tests? Confused 😕

Failed FET/Chemical

I just finished my 3rd egg collection, after having 0 euploid embryos last round, and the first round having two 5AA embryos that resulted in chemical pregnancies. Does anyone have history of iVF chemicals before having a successful pregnancy?? If so, what did you do different?? (They tested for antiphosfillipid, ...

Should continue with the process?

I just started the process of my second IVF transfer, I should have a transfer sometime in the next 10 days or so, but my partner and I decided to split and I was told that she doesn't want another child with me (she does a shitty job with the 1st one anyways) Do I continue? Do I just do it and accept that I will be...

Metformin For IVF

Just wondering if anyone has been on this medication during a frozen embryo transfer. At what point did your doctor put you on the medication? And what was your experience with it. Thanks in advance!

First Positive 💫

We got our positive today on our second round of FET. My clinic will scan me at 6-7 weeks but wondering if anyone actually called their own GP and started that process before being discharged from the clinic? Our clinic is private so also not sure if there is a difference? Have you been treated as high risk pregnan...

EWCM day 6

My period finished yesterday and today I have EWCM. I usually ovulate on day 15, haven’t been using lh strips as I usually start around day 10. Is it possible to be ovulating this early?!?!

How long after a frozen transfer did people get a positive on a digital test.

I've had positives on line tests. I'm 10 days past a 5 day transfer today. Just don't want to waste a test they are so expensive 😩
