If you want one and are having a pleasant experience, why not?!

Your little boy will love a sibling there’s no doubt, and it’ll be good for his development and throughout his life he’ll always have that other extension of you to be able to relate to, confide in, etc.

I say go for it and best of luck 💖

I had my second right before my first turned 2 and even have a third now and am loving ittttt

Definitely taking a hotttt break until number 4 though because potty training but it’s been pleasant for me too and am loving it!

Also us moms are not getting any younger so it’s best physically to knock em out while we’re as young as possible!

two days ago I got hit with the "wow. we did it. we got through infancy and are having a blast." and knew I was ready for another. but we are waiting until we can have two kids and be financially stable!

When it got easier and I hated work lol But soon as I got pregnant the terrible 2s started and is still on-going. Every stage is hard it's in own way so go for it.

Girly if your ready then do it lol my little just turned 18 months and I’m 5 months pregnant with number two we did the math and if I go to my due date she will turn two six weeks after I have this baby lol

My baby is 10m and once she’s potty trained that’ll be my time to decide for a second lol

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

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?

Compression Socks

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