Community Posts, Tips & Support on Planning for a Baby

I’m feeling so sick, exhausted and sore. Been told I have a cyst on my ovary the size of a tennis ball, so emotions are all over the place. Would love to have something to cheer me up. We had a scan a few days ago and would to know what you amazing people think it could be?

I’m seeing things aren’t I? 😑

This is by no means meant to be about xenophobia, but I’m genuinely curious if there’s a scientific explanation. I notice when I’ve been going to my fertility clinic for routine appts as well as all my IVF monitoring, the waiting room is always filled with Asian and Indian couples and I’ve only seen a handful of C...

First photo taken at 7pm - 2nd (in comments) take this morning with FMU

Are my eyes deceiving or can anyone see a faint line? This is my 3rd test and all test have been faint line.

Someone please bring me back down to reality? I swear i see a line more than an indent. First pee of the day and photo taken at 5 minutes.

Good morning. How many days should my ovulation test read as ‘positive’? I had a strong line equivalent to the control line yesterday and today it is a bit weaker. It’s still strong but not reading as ‘positive’. Thank you in advance!

This is my first baby if it’s there💗 I have had 3 chemicals so far so I’m a bit anxious this time around. The other times I didn’t even miss my period but this time around I’m 5 days late today (My period is usually like clock work) I have nausea all day long so I’m hoping💗 The uploaded picture has made the lines…

I have not been able to keep anything down all day . I just threw up my water and stomach lining and a little spot of blood came out also….Should I be worried ?

Is this test defective because of how the dye looks near where the test line would be? Photo was taken within the proper timeframe.

Hi all, my period isn’t due for 5/6 days but took this ClearBlue early test and got this result yesterday? But it didn’t come up initially, only when I checked later on so thinking it’s probably an evaporation line? Happened again with the test this morning, nothing when I timed it, but when I went back after an hou...

Sometimes me and my partner use a bit of lube if we are being adventurous in the bedroom and I read the tube the other night and it contains spermicide and says can slow sperm down (great 🤦🏼‍♀️) I’m trying to find a basic normal lube I can discreetly replace it with that isn’t aimed at conceiving but won’t prevent…

Hi all is this a positive or an indent line? Thankyou xxx

Still BFN on clearblue ultra early digital though… 😭 i am 11dpo today, I got a BFP on digital on 14DPO last time… I just won’t believe that these tests are actually positive until I see it on a digital… any advice?

Hey Ladies, I've just done a first response pregnancy test and has come back negative. My partner and I BD on the Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday and I had ovulation pains on that same Thursday. I've never had any issues and have had 1 baby and conceived in the first month of trying. This is our 3rd month of trying but...

Hey - I’ve got my egg collection on Wednesday. Other than taking the meds prescribed, any tips on how I can get some of my tiny follicles to grow big enough to collect between now and then? Thanks 🙏🏼

So my ovulation strips were darkest on 30th May, only as dark as the control line not darker. Yesterday I had stabbing pains in lower left back but ovulation test is so faint today its barely there. Hcg still negative but could this have been the start of implantation? Anyone had anything similar?

I had a miscarriage in April had a period 4 weeks after then Ttc again how long did it take people to conceive after a miscarriage? I’m due to start my period in few days again :( x

Indent/evap? This is 3 mins after taking. I see a very white line on the very left that seems like an evap but the one in the middle has a dark color and it's curved? Weird. What do you make of it?

Please can someone respond by the way? I never seem to get anyone responding to my posts.. 😞 Hi ladies looking for a bit of advice here please? Yesterday does it look like that was my peak? When I tested yesterday at 5pm it started dropping and now it remains low. I’ve also had lack of EWCM, should I be concerned…
