Anyone else feel our lockdown babies are missing out?

Really at a loss my older two I was always out and about with them at different groups. Now my youngest hasn't been around anyone near his own age... Any one else have mummy guilt?

Yes 100%!! I’m like do you think she’s sad coz she has no friends?! I’ve started taking her to an indoor soft play centre in past few weeks so that she can just get used to playing alongside other kids her age and she’s really enjoying it. Is there anywhere like that near you that you could take him? I’m struggling to find any toddler and parent groups near me which I think would be a great opportunity for her to socialise. Just know you’re not alone in feeling this way ❤️

I take my 2year old to two baby and toddler groups a week and he loves it. Flying around the halls, watching other kids play.
I have an 8month old too and she is beginning to move and become intrigued so I reckon shortly she will be wanting out of the buggy at it too...

Positive test?!

I’m panicking!! I’ve been so exhausted since having my boy as he does not sleep!! Me and my husband had sex for the first time in over 2 years a couple of weeks ago. Only the once. We used a condom as I’m not currently on contraception. No signs of it splitting. I bought a test today just to reassure myself as I’m a few days late for my period. I’m also very run down so was hoping it was due to this. But this has me panicking!!

Adoption

Has anyone on here ever adopted? I’m thinking about adopting a child but I want to know other people’s experience with it. How long did it take? What’s the process? Was it expensive?

Hi is this test dark enough for 4 weeks pregnant?

I’ve had losses in the past and I’m absolutely terrified

Colostrum collecting

37 weeks and managed to get 6ml between hands and haakaa! Anyone else just find it so satisfying to collect?

Ps - I WISH it would send me into labour before my due date. I collected it from 37-42 weeks with my son lol!

For those 34+… how long did it take you to get pregnant?

I am 34 and we have been trying for a while (it did for my first as well which happened when I was 29, but not as long as we have currently been trying) but with my age I’m paranoid that it’s going to be so difficult. I’m so discouraged.
