Pregnant with 2nd baby

Hello everyone! I’m currently 6 weeks pregnant with my second baby. My son is 16 months old and I was wondering if anyone had advice for the transition into 2 kids and helping my son transition with being a big brother and sharing his mom and dad.

I’d love to get information too. I’m 6w pregnant with second baby and my first baby is 18 months old. I don’t know how it’s going to turn out

I was super worried. My babies are age gapped pretty much the same. I would cry a lot thinking about the change number 1 would go through. But in the end, the love just grew for all of us. We introduced more baby dolls to number 1, included them in the pregnancy (tummy talks, tummy rubs, practicing names), we got her big sister books, and let her help set up baby gear and furniture. So she prepped with us. Then when the baby came. I was shocked she was so gentle. There were moments of jealousy. But we made sure that she knew she was just as much number 2s big sister as we were her parents.

Chemical pregnancy or too early ?

I did a test last night and straight away the positive line came up. When I tested again this morning it’s negative. My period isn’t due until Tuesday but feeling really crap and pregnant for the last week

Ovulation

If I had sex yesterday (Saturday) n my ovulation date is on Tuesday is it possible I could get pregnant?

Anyone had a super early postive ?

Hi am i seeing things ? It's only 6 dpo. I had a chemical pregnancy start of February then a period then a positive ovulation strip a week ago Could this be the left over after the chemical ? It just seems so early. This is an early detection test. This came up within 2 minutes of dipping and it says to wait 3 minutes. I've taken two after that arnt as early detection but still what I think are faint positives ? All appeared withing the recommended time frames xxx

At 8DPO negative test result

At 8 DPO not even a faint line , a straight negative test . So does that means it’s a no pregnancy for me this month . Or there are future chances for hcg to rise

Could this be like my ovulation is about to start from this ovulation test

I had my period on the 15 of march and my cycle is 23 days from the picture will be that I’m ovulating

I'm so not meant to be a mother.

My kids won't listen to me get into stuff when they know they aren't supposed to. Telling me no all the time. Only listen to their dad. Laughs when I correct them. I spend most of my time yelling at them because they don't want to listen to me at all. My husband said that I shouldn't have kids. And I am believing him on it. I was never meant to be a mother now. I won't hurt my kids I just want to disappear and make everyone else's lives better without me.
