What do you find the hardest about 2 under 2?

I'm about to join the 2 under 2 club in august/September, with a 13 month age gap, I'm hearing from a lot of you that it's hard but it's worth it and I'm curious as to what you find the hardest ? ...xx

Cycle buddies?

Why have I never heard of Silent Endometriosis?

I'm almost at 10 years TTC and have just been told asymptomatic endometriosis is a probability. Why have I never heard of it? Do you have any information about it? BTW I've booked the appt to enquire but while I wait I thought I'd ask the community.

9dp5dt beta - 101

Trying to be hopeful, but not feeling great about my beta today. I know this is a perfectly strong number, but I worry as it’s a third of what my last beta was with my daughter and my pregnancy tests have looked basically identical 7dpt-9dpt. I know about later implantation, but I got a vvvfp 4dpt, so I don’t think it’s that :( anyone else not see progression and have a successful pregnancy? I’m worried it’s a chemical and my beta is already going down and 101 is just the start. Ugh. Feeling so down and stressed.

2 under 3..

Is it really hard? I need words of encouragement, me and my husband have decided to start trying in October, our daughter will be 18 months which means we could potentially have just over a year age gap. (It may of course take longer to conceive)

Positive stories please? Incognito as I don’t want friends and family to see and know we’re going to start trying

Trying for Baby No 2

We have an 18m old with our last 2 frozen embryos in storage and think we have decided to try again.

We were a long time TTC and our first baby was via our 3rd transfer so I was trying lots of different things, acupuncture, no caffeine/alcohol/perfume, eco friendly brands, drinking bone broth etc!

Our doctor has suggested the same meds which is natural cycle plus progesterone, but with a toddler on the run I don’t know if I’ve got the headspace or energy to do all the “extra stuff” and if any of that helped anyway?

I feel more relaxed this time but also want to give it the best shot so feel like I need to prepare.

Anyone else been in a similar position?

Looking for the real, raw advice/ hacks that has worked for you as a mom of 2 under 2

Hey guys I just welcomed a beautiful babygirl December ‘25 and expecting a baby boy in December ‘26. Was it planned? Absolutely not. Is it happening? Absolutely. I’m not new to motherhood as I have an 8 year old daughter but I am new to have multiple children and learning to be there for all parties and myself as well. I am also looking for advice on how to juggle two under two, any hacks that worked for you, advice on what helped you and your marriage/partner navigate through this chapter of life.
Thank you guys in advance 🫶🏼🫶🏼

How long did it take you to get pregnant with baby number 2?

So I’ve been told I have pcos

Not had a period since may this year , went to a&e on Monday with pains had to stay in and wait for a scan , they told me I had pcos and both ovaries was bigger than they are meant to be but the only sign I’ve had is no periods , not ovulating properly and gained a lot of weight and getting more spots than normal would just like some information how people are dealing with it and how hard it to have a baby

2nd baby

So my parents have both told me today that I should have another baby to benefit my little girl, I would love for her to be a big sister but I have one problem 😂 I don’t have a partner (been single since December 2025), what am I supposed to do in this situation?

Anyone else have any weird random reasons to have another baby? 😂

My husband and I just got erberts and gerberts sandwiches for lunch and I told him it makes me want to have another baby just because the post baby sandwich while in the hospital hits so hard. That thought made me wonder if any one else has had any sort of thought like that as well or some weird reason to make you want another baby.

3rd child

50/50 to try for a 3rd. Please if you have a 3rd let me know how it is would you recommend. Finally getting comfortable with 2, is it time or just get a pet
