Thinking about having baby #3

How hard is it going from 2 to 3? Keep it real!

So my nexplanon expires in 5 months(3 year) and idk if that has anything to do with anything but I don’t have those weird periods where I don’t have them at all or have them the whole time I’m on birth control, in the beginning my periods used to be like 3 months apart but for the past year I’ve had one every month and I’m 3 days late, I’m not having symptoms except for the fact I’m super irritable, tired and sometimes nausea but the first test was 100% negative but I took it before my period was technically supposed to start and I just took the second 1 this morning and it had a super faint line pop up for a few seconds and then disappeared! Idk what to think!

Starting IVF

I need advice, please let me know if I’m overreacting!! My husband and I have been TTC for a while now. We’ve had a few miscarriages and an ectopic pregnancy ultimately leading to IVF being my only method of contraception. I’ve struggled for a few months with this idea and I’ve finally came to terms with it.

I’ll be starting our first round of IVF within a week. I was speaking to one of the nurses and she gave me hope by saying “you’ll be pregnant by the summer” and although I know that may or may not be true it felt good to hear. When I told my husband about what the nurse had said his response was “we’ll see”

* definitely not the response I was hoping*

When he seen my demeanor change. He basically told me that I shouldn’t expect him to say what I want him to hear however, he’s still being optimistic. I just need to know was me getting upset by his response normal I was just looking for him to be more supportive or have a more positive outlook then “we will see”.

Just for a little bit more context, this is not the first time that I felt like I didn’t have his support. One day I was creating my “IVF must haves” and he told me that I was doing too much and that I’m overthinking everything. We had a conversation and I ended up letting him know that I didn’t feel supported by him and he said he will do better and then he said what he said today.

Morning after pill

Hi all, I have a question as need some advice! I recently had to take morning after pill as my fiance and I had a little slip up and I still haven’t got my period, I took the pill at the end of march and my period is now 16 days late, I’ve taken 3 pregnancy tests and they’ve all been negative. Do I need to see a doctor or should I just wait it out a bit longer?? I know it can delay it by 3-7 days but I’m thinking 16 seems a little excessive 😂 thank you for any help you can all give!! ❤️

Thoughts on Stay At Home Dads?

Do you respect them? Do you love them? Do you think they are shirking their role in the family, or do you think they are stepping up? Do they make you uncomfortable in child focused spaces? Would your partner be comfortable with you and your kids spending time together? Would you go on playdates with one? Should they be welcome in SAHM communities, or do they need to make own communities?
