This is my second cycle of tracking LH so still very new to me. My most recent test is showing as “low” but it’s darker than all of my others so far. Would anyone know if this looks like it’s surging and if this will indicate a peak soon?

I would say keep testing 8am and 4pm roughly....you should see it get darker, and don't stop until it's really low again. It's the only way to know for certain xx

Mine was like this at 2pm one day then 9am the next day it hit 1.24 peak for me keep testing x

Keep testing 2 or 3 times a day.

Id say yes or Vvv close ! Keep testing to make sure it comes down xx

You'll only know if it's your peak when the next test is lighter. Peak is the highest before the drop. And that's what triggers egg release
It’s a boy 🎉 so excited

Good morning all,
I am 41 weeks pregnant and still waiting, I had a little mild pain since week 38 , but still no sign of the delivery, my feet started to swallow specially the right one. Is this normal?
Anyone had similar situation? I am expecting a baby boy. The due date was the 1st of October but I'm still waiting!!

Hi all,
Little ones cord fell off last night, today it looks like she has a little stump. Does anyone know what this could be?
Midwife is due to come out tomorrow so will ask her but intrigued in the meantime to see what you all think

Is anyone else in a similar situation and just absolutely winging it at this point? 😭😂
I have an 8½ month old who has decided that sleep is completely optional. She barely naps during the day and is waking constantly through the night, sometimes staying awake for hours. She’s absolutely exhausted but will fight sleep with everything in her tiny body 😭 I’m trying everything and honestly I’m at the point where I don’t even know what to do anymore.
On top of that, I’ve got quite a few health issues that have been really kicking my arse lately and making it difficult to function normally. And now I’m pregnant again on top of all of it 🥲 I’m exhausted, constantly struggling to keep up with everything, and some days I genuinely feel like I’m barely keeping my head above water.
I love my wee girl more than anything and I know this is just a season, but I’m so physically and mentally drained. I feel like I’m constantly trying to look after everyone while having absolutely nothing left in the tank myself.
I know there probably isn’t a magic answer or much advice anyone can give, but I think I’d feel so much better just knowing I’m not the only one in this boat. ❤️
Are there any other mums who are dealing with awful sleep, pregnancy, health problems, or just generally feeling like they’re struggling to function? How are you coping? 😭

I’m having a c section next week and am hoping dad can stay overnight with me. My last baby was in 2022 so it was still a bit ‘covidy’ and he could only stay with me during visitor hours. It was a nightmare as I was in so much pain and could barely move to get to my baby and when I pressed the button for a midwife it took over half an hour for someone to come. I am giving birth at the JR Oxford.
