TTC 6 months

Hi mamas,

I am 37 years old and i have a 3 and half years old son who was delivered through emergency c section. We have now been trying for a second baby for about 6 months now.
The first time around with my son i managed to fall pregnant quickly within 3 cycles.
So far i have been checking my cycles and fertile window but so far we haven’t been lucky

Has any of you experienced this? Do you have any tips ?

I was in the same boat. 3yo after emergency section and tried for 10 months before falling pregnant (now 10 weeks so early stages)
What I did differently the successful month… I bought better conception vitamins online and I had sex every single day of my cycle! (Bar 2 or 3 days due to being busy or tired). I was so fed up I told my husband that’s it we are doing it everyday haha.
Good luck and I hope next month is your month! It’s so hard when it happens quickly the first time but I think it’s common to take longer the second time round x

Hi, I got my BFP today, so early days.

I am 34 and it happened on month 7 for us, my first 2 children happened first cycle both times so I felt really strongly like there was a reason.

I had bloods due to ovarian surgery and I did have high FSH and tbh I felt like it wasn’t going to happen. This month my youngest had surgery the weekend I was ovulating so we did it before but we didn’t track or time and it just happened. Didn’t do anything special other than not focus on it. We also bought a 3 bed house 🤣🫣. It’s so hard and every month is harder I really hope it is your time soon.

Congratulations ☺️☺️. I hope all goes well. I had my hormones checked today as well and all come out to be normal.. same as you i feel something might be wrong as the first time it happened quickly.. now that the results came out ok i wonder what other checks i have to do.. or wait a bit more and be positive.. this month it will be 7 months so lets hope number 7 will be lucky for me too 😀

Ovulation

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

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.

One and done… or not?

32ftm. I’m starting to feel so much pressure to have another baby soon as I wean from breastfeeding so they can be close in age and be friends, but I don’t feel ready for pregnancy and newborn trenches again 😭 my husband and I are all we’ve got. Having just one baby without a village has been really tough. Am I being unrealistic wanting another one soon?

Tests

So I had a blood test at the drs bc I keep getting positive tests when the blood test was negative what could this mean? Hubby says the tests are negative and said he can’t see anything. Negative image down below.

Am I pregnant?

I lightly spotted almost 5 days ago, which is not common for me before my period.
My period was supposed to come today. I should have tested in the morning but its 5:30pm.
Is there a second line??
