Positive or not help

my last period was 5 days long then I came off for 5 days and came back on for 3 days ( was light bleed ) I’m now 8 days late and have had cramps coming up to about 2 weeks in a row along with back pain and dizziness here and there. I have done 3 strip tests which I feel like I can see faint lines but the digital says not pregnant. I’m not sure if these are faint positives or evap lines 😫

Husbands reaction to finding out im pregnant

My husband and I have been trying for our second child for 5 months now and yesterday I finally got a positive pregnancy test. I waited until today to tell him as I was in a rush to get to work yesterday. I asked him to pick a hand and had the test behind my back. He did this uncomfortable half smile and commented ew why would you give me a stick of your wee? Like maybe it was a joke but cmon?! Then he commented how i should just test again in a few days as it may be negative next time. Im quite put off by his reaction as I hoped he would atleast smile instead of trying to minimise it. Is that normal?

Adoption

Has anyone had any experience with adoption? I had a very traumatic pregnancy and birth so I am considering adopting my 2nd child. Does anyone have any advice, experience or places to start doing research?

Thanks so much

One and done guilt

My son is nearly 2 and we have decided we are one and done. I know I couldn’t cope with 2 (or more) kids, I am autistic and can’t cope well with noise/being touched all the time/general chaos. But I feel so sad for him that he won’t have a sibling. He is getting to the age where he wants to play with other kids now, we were just at the park and he wanted to play with a pair of siblings but they only wanted to play with each other and I feel so guilty and sad. Age is not on my side to be able to wait until he’s older to have another child. Does anyone else feel like this.
