We definitely want another one but just not yet! I honestly don't know how people keep a toddler and a baby safe at the same time 😂

I'm one and done unless I win the lottery. The housing market and nursery costs and mortgage rates don't allow 🤣

I would like a second but I do have reservations.

I would love to have another baby. But I am not sure my marriage will survive. I am not sure I can go through ppd again. I am not sure I could manage the sleep deprivation without breaking down. I am not sure I could be so lonely and isolated and not be pursuing my career and have such little time for myself another time. But I would absolutely love to x

Definitely one and done. I found it difficult accepting the fact I was having one. I have had severe postnatal depression and am still battling it, I feel isolated and lonely and not to mention the expense. I don't think I could go through it all again.

@Bianca same for me I adore.my son but he is super high energy still doesn't sleep well etc we have no family to help us ever get a break so we can have a date as a couple or anything and his nursery fees full time cripple us!

6 wow! I've heard that going from 1 to 2 feels huge but that children after that just sort of slot into your life easier. I'm guessing that's maybe the same for you x

Confused Over Test Result

My heads pretty blagged about this atm. I’ve had spotting & some cramping but of the 2 tests I’d have expected the clear blue one to be most accurate. Any advice?

Boy or girl?

I’ve just discovered the nub theory and this is my 4th baby. Anyone take a guess?

SPPH (secondary postpartum haemorrhage) due to retained placenta -D&C?

Looking to see if anyone else has experienced this? Currently trying to pass retained tissue ( 4 weeks pp) and finding every day so exhausting just constantly waiting and checking my bleeding. I stopped bleeding on week 2.5/3 then bleeding picked up last Saturday and I haemorrhaged on Thursday morning with a rush to hospital. Everyday since I’m waking up scared I’ll be bleeding out. Worried to go toilet to check, I’m not convinced I’ll be passing it naturally and I’m worried I’ll need a D&C… has anyone had this? My retained tissue is 2cm so they said it’s small but I have no signs of passing it or blood changing colour to show slowing down.

39 weeks pregnant FTM

39 weeks baby hasn’t come yet and I am just full of anxiety. I am trying to relax. I am trying to chill, but I can’t chill. I do not want to be induced. I would love to have her natural. Issue is I am tight down there and petite and baby is measuring big like the head especially. I know that measurements can be off. But I have photos! And she is a chunk. This is so unpredictable. How do I just put my faith forward and trust in God and how do I let go of this anxiety? I am doing fine and then boom it hits me and I want to ball my eyes out. I am trying to treat myself and do little things but driving or doing anything is so hard now and I’m so huge and uncomfortable …I’m at my breaking point 😭
