It takes a village

Everyone says it takes a village to raise a child…what happens if you don’t have a village? My partners are both deceased, and my partners parents are only able to help when it “works” for them. My siblings make no effort with me, and I have little friends. I really want to go back to work, but my partner thinks it’...

Why is my LH so dark with first AF?

Does this look positive?

I am on day 23 of my cycle and my cycle is usually between 25 to 28 days. I have done a test this morning and a faint line appeared. Does this look positive or looks like an evaporation line. I had a miscarriage last year July and nothing after that. It happened before I saw a faint line but periods next day. Really...

Visitors post-birth

Is anyone else feeling a bit anxious about visitors immediately after birth? It’s the first grandchild for my in-laws and they’re not great at knowing when to leave and my partner isn’t very good at having difficult conversations with them (especially his mum) for fear of upsetting them. I know they’re excited which...

Why am I not falling pregnant?!

My husband and I are struggling to conceive, it’s been over 6 months and nothing. We already have a 3 year old so I know I can get pregnant. I’ve had blood work done and a smear test, all come back normal. I don’t understand why it’s not happening, I’m so disheartened every month with a negative test 😫. I use the…

Parenting

Does any moms feel bad after having to beat their child after talking numerous times about the same thing?? How do you feel about beating? Do you feel they help or not? If so in what capacity? After how many warnings should/would you have the child a whooping? Do you feel gentle parenting work?

Second IVF child

I am doing IVF again after having had a child via IVF. I am 38 and after one cycle we have 1 genetically tested healthy embryo. Just to say I know this comes from a very privileged place of already having a child and we are beyond grateful for them. This makes trying for #2 less stressful but I’m also a realist...

Is this concerning

I took a clear blue test on the 14th at 4weeks 1day pregnant based of ovulation date and got 2-3 weeks. I took another test this morning at 5weeks 5 days and still is showing 2-3 haven’t got a 3+ yet. Am worried as have had a previous MMC.
