Community Posts, Tips & Support on Trying to Conceive

I have high blood pressure and PCOS, after back to back babies (2022 and 2023) I’m looking forward to feeling better, curbing cravings, and starting new habits!

Anyone else faced repeated disappointment to the point that they’re almost too afraid to test?! It’s 15dpo and AF is due today (but absent…so far) and I’ve got a myriad of symptoms that could either be my period, or pregnancy. And I just can’t bring myself to test. I’m scared of another no. I’m scared of the crush...

What do you guys think? Been getting cramps. This is a Clear blues ultra early test. We’ve not been actively TTC we’ve just not used any protection and taken the more “leave it in Gods hand” approach - we were worrying ourselves silly. I will test again tomorrow. The line is blue although it’s not clear from the ...

Is anyone finding it/found it harder to connect to or be excited by your second pregnancy? Maybe I’m too preoccupied with my toddler but I just don’t feel that pregnant and can’t really connect to the idea that there’s a real baby in there that I will meet and love. Perhaps once I start to feel more movement it will...
