Do you spank/agree with spanking?

I live in GA USA and a lot of people around where I live seem to support spanking. Half of the people that I know are completely against it. The other half are for it. I have even met some who have changed their minds about it after they had kids. Some use to be against it until after they had kids. And some use to be for it until they had kids. Also, in my state it is legal as long as it does not leave marks and as long as it is from the parent and not from a school teacher or daycare worker or foster parent.

When to try for another baby?

My son is 6 months old and I do want another baby. When is a good time to start? Or what a good age gap? Was it hard was it worth it?! Here is a photo of my handsome boy 🥺

I want a baby sooo bad

Do you see a faint line or is it just wishful thinking you can be honest I’ve been trying for a really long time and nothing’s happened so it’s OK if not, but I swear I see something

“People really don’t want kids, they want babies”

Thoughts?

Different shades

I have two boys with my husband- one is darkskinned/black and the other is light skin/ mixed race like. I am mixed race and my husband is black. We make the joke that people may be thinking that I am the step mum to my first born because my second born look so much like me. My second born is the lightest in my husband family and my first born the darkest in mine.
Truthfully I am just patiently waiting to deal with my children questions and also a bit scared. How can I support hem both to grow confident?
Some people in my family joked that my second born will have it easier in this world which make me eek. It made me very protective of my first born.
Oh dear, is anyone else in this situation?

Hi!

Hi! I have pcos, and when I take lh tests I get my peak very suddenly and the next day it disappears straight away I have been testing this month and have had a stronger than usual line, and I’m wondering if I could have actually peaked that night?

Does anyone get annoyed with non-parents giving unsolicited opinions/advice?

Usually the over simplified or idealistic kind?
