TTC

Finding ‘life’ tricky with TTC in terms of time when we are both so tired with work and our first (3 years). I’m on day 10 of my cycle, we haven’t had sex since before my period and my fertile window is opening which I’m going to try and have us be active for, but is anyone else struggling with the same? Also, is it ok to really only give it a go during this time and not like straight after my period?

If you're tracking your ovulation accurately, you only "need" to have sex the day before ovulation for the highest chance of conception. Every time I've fallen pregnant has been with only one attempt on the day before ovulation.

We are very lucky obviously. But if you are too tired for regular activity during your fertile window, then aim for that one high chance day ❤️❤️ xxx

Aim to have sex, a couple times, around day 12-14 if you're not tracking.

Always happy to chat, it's such a minefield and can be really lonely xxx

i'm a young mum and it annoys me when older mums...

when they think its so easy to look after a baby and yet their situation is so much worse than yours 'financially, emotionally and physically', i'm a young mum (early 20's) but my baby was planned we were in a good place financially and i knew i would have full support from my partner whether its with housework or the baby whilst hes also working and i am a sahm. but a older family member is having a baby soon and when i explained that yes it would be hard and try to give advice and tell her she needs a village as her partner is not the helpful kind and is unemployed, she acts so ignorant i honestly do not wish her any harm and have never but i thought the advice would be appreciated coming from someone who has gone through pregnancy and postpartum however she acts completely unfazed, they have no money and live by borrowing money that they never return. I have never been rude nor arogant but simply gave advice and warnings and she just acted like i was the problem and had no idea and a sh*t mum. and that she would be the perfect mum.


JUST BECAUSE SHES OLDER DOESNT MAKE HER WISER!

What do you tell your child when your parents aren't around?

My dad died when I was young and my mum and my stepdad badly abused me. I left the county at 17 and have only seen my mum once since. She didn't even try and meet up with my after I left. I had therapy in my 20s and I'm very happy in myself now with a good life but my 3 year old has started asking questions.

Negative right?

I’m 11dpo I’m pretty sure this is negative. Guess I’m out this cycle. Feel like I’m going crazy.

Is it multiples?

Tested faint positive 8dpo because I was feeling symptoms - strong sense of smell, some light nausea. 3 days later and the symptoms and test line are strong, still 3 days before missed period. Could it be multiples?
