Does anyone’s partner not want a second baby? We had a little boy a year ago and we love him, I would love another baby, to complete the family but my partner is happy with one. I know if we had a girl first we’d have tried for a second to have a boy… We’ve spoken about it a couple of times and he said maybe once bu...

I’m not sure what to do. I’m not ready for this baby. I already have an almost 2 year old. But my flat is a mess. So unorganised and nothing has a home. We are looking at getting big storage boxes but we aren’t in a great place with money. I just don’t want to bring a newborn baby into this mess but I’m already stru...

Hi everyone, my baby was diagnosed with SVT when I was 28 weeks pregnant, treated with flecainide. We gave birth at UCLH in London and straight away our little man had an episode. He’s been on flecainide since, but unfortunately had 2 more episodes since… which has led to further hospital stays and the introduction ...

It's the best and I want my son to have a sibling soon. I took me about a year to get pregnant the first time so don't want to delay! I feel all heal...

Wondering whether anybody else found trying for baby number two took so much longer? My little boy is nearly 3. I fell with him in less than 6 months .. I’m nearing a year for baby number 2 and I’m beginning to consider that it actually might never happen!

How do you know when you’re ready for baby number two? My baby boy is currently just over 3 months and his dad is already ready for baby number two but I’m not. How do you know when is the right time to start trying for number 2?

Where are you in your ttc journey? Also feel free to share if you have fallen pregnant. I was here for 14 months before I finally fell pregnant with my rainbow after ectopic and secondary infertility.

Hs anyone else had Post partum nightsweats, and if so how long did they last? I'm 2 weeks PP and fed up with waking up drenched! 😅🫠

My partner and I have been TTC for 5 months (I know not a long time but it's v frustrating) My partner is the one who brought up the topic of me having my BC removed and start TTC. However, he never wants to BD or even do the do for fun even when I'm not ovulating. I feel so alone at the moment. And I've spoken to h...

Okay. So. My daughter is my best friend, but wasn’t planned. It took one “oopsies” and BOOM preggo. She’s now 16 months, we just started trying for baby #2. It’s a different feeling actually trying (exciting, but makes me anxious) If it was as easy with her, is it similar with baby #2? We’ve been on our game th...

This finally happened on Saturday! We were meant to be having an initial IVF appointment next week and I was supposed to be having a laparoscopy for endometriosis the week after but I couldn’t be happier to have to ring up the hospital to cancel 🥰

Is anyone else struggling to get pregnant second time around? I am 34 and we have been trying since July, taking the tablets doing the ovulation tests and nothing. Just looking for solidarity, I know people are in worse situations than me and that must be horrible but it all just feels pretty 💩

Has anyone done a passport for their baby yet? If so, how long did it take to come back without fast track?
