Find a shelter near you and visit! The best way to find a good fit is to meet in person before applying or settling on one. They’ll help you through the whole process once you find one! :)

I rescued my male staffy mix when he was 4m (born 10/2020) old from a local rescue. I attended a few of their adoption events and we decided we'd do a foster with the option to adopt because my female staffy mix is dog selective and hates most other dogs. We're in MD, he came from a bad situation in Louisiana. 5 years later he's stuck with us.

Find a good shelter and they'll help find a good fit. Or I got my dog from people I know off Facebook, had him since he was a baby. Older dogs need love too though

Baby #2

So I am 6 weeks pp and already thinking of baby number 2😂🙈 it took us 8 years to convince our baby girl and as hard as it has been I can’t help but think of giving her a sibling.
Question is when should we start trying? I did have a c section so know not any time soon to give my body chance to recover. Curious when other women had there next baby after a c section
Thank you ☺️ x

Did you find a ‘right time’ for baby number 2?

Anyone with multiple kiddies, did you feel a ‘right time’ to have baby number 2?

Baby boy is 17 months old and we know we want a second baby and that we wanted not too big of an age gap between them so we have discussed maybe trying in the next few months but at the same time I feel like right now might not be the ‘right time’?

I basically feel like we’ve only just properly got in the flow of being parents, I’ve started back at work and we have a good little routine going on that we’re all managing and happy with - but then I’m thinking will there ever be a ‘right time’

From your experience did you feel a right time for baby number 2?

TW -

How do you explain the concept of passing away to a small child (3yo specifically)? My mom’s dog, who my son adores, suddenly passed away today. They live in the US but we visit a lot, so when we go there & her dog isn’t there he will definitely be confused so obviously best to get ahead of it. How do you explain the concept of dying/death to a child? I’m not good with this sort of thing 🙈💔

Evap line or early positive?

So, I did a test with my second wee of the morning at 11:30am and i saw two lines within the time frame, although the test line was faint (i thought this was bc Im only testing one day after a missed period).

So then i did two more tests, one digital and one line test at 3:30pm ish and they were both negative.

I’m not sure if the first one was an evap or if it’s positive but the other two were negative bc i’m really early?
