Ready?

Hey everyone, I’m 37 +4 and have a two year old. I have not felt the urge to nest at all (I was the opposite with my first). I am too busy taking my son on days out and enjoying our time together plus I clean anyway but it gets messy again. Has anyone not packed their hospital bag and washed all the baby clothes? Wondering if the urge to nest will kick in (I will have to get it done just wish I had the feeling lol)

Same here.

I can hardly even put anything together or clean anything.

Hopefully I finally get to do something before time 😒

Pushed myself to wash all the clothes although I’ve not managed to get the urge to actually put them back away yet 😴 no bag packed either I’m yet to even buy the sheets for the next to me I feel like I had everything packed and ready with 10 weeks left to go when I was having my daughter 😂

I'm still working and don't finish up til I'm 38 weeks next Friday and nesting hasn't kicked in because I only have the energy to show up for a shift (I work from home , well bed these days 🙈) and I'm too tired to do anything else after work. I'm even napping during my lunch hour and getting nothing done. Trying to sort baby stuff on weekends! But it's soooo tiring when you're this far on

I’ve only just packed my bag 🙃 feel like I’m in a bit of denial that my baby boy is going to be a big boy 🥹

Same. I’ve only managed to wash all of his clothes (not put away though) a hospital bag isn’t packed and nothing is down from the loft, I’m freaking out but at the same time I can’t be arsed as I’m so drained from being this pregnant in this heat with an 18months old 😂

So glad I am not on my own! Hopefully will sort this week 😂 thank you all for making me feel better lol x

Life is great as older single mom of 1, baby 2 at 45?

I’m 44 with a 5 year old and life is amazing. I’ve been raising this kid alone the whole time and I’m living a dream life where I live between the US, Thailand and Spain. I own a home, have a good remote job, keep my kid with me all day.

I want to have a second child. But not desperately. I’d need to borrow some semen from the bank and while I think it’s unfortunate to not know the origin of the semen and the possibility of 100 siblings , I’m open to it. My insurance covers IUI and IVF through my next birthday.

Would you start over as mom of an infant at 45 years old?

Am I pregnant?

Hi everyone 🤗 I got a really faint line yesterday at 10 dpo and this morning I tested at 11 dpo and I can't see a line 😭 is there still a chance I could be pregnant ?🙏 and my HCG is fluctuating because it's so early? This test was from yesterday

Pregnancy test

I took this pregnancy test and then a few days later I looked at it again and noticed a very faint line but then I took 3 more on different days and they all came out negative. What’s going on? I’m tripping out because I see it but my husband says he doesn’t.

Positive test?

Do yall see it? There’s the original and another one that I added sharpness to and stuff to see the faint liner more better. I took more and they came out negative. So I’m so confused. Also that line didn’t appear immediately I noticed it like the next day.

Any ideas what’s happening with my temp?

Thought I had ovulated but now I’m not so sure, I didn’t record my temp on a couple of days because I’ve been unwell with a fever so it was a lot higher than it should of been

Compression Socks

Hey, for how long did everyone keep their compression socks on? I am also on blood thinning injections for 6weeks. Many thanks
