Is there a right time for another baby?

We have always said we would love another one. I’ve only just got my period back last month 🥴 I finally feel like me again and not just a mum which I’m worried about losing again.

Is the 1 to 2 transition harder than 0 to 1 ?

Partner has just turned 40 and I’m 35 so we are aware we aren’t spring chickens anymore 🤣😫 x

Honestly, it’s just when you feel it’s time.
We have a 3.5 year gap between ours (though I did have a MC inbetween)
I was 34 and my husband 41 when we had our second.
It’s harder in some ways, trying to balance everything (it all feels a bit chaotic) and going back to those baby days BUT it’s easier in the sense that you’ve already adjusted your life to cater to having children.

Is this baby not sticking? Help/advice

Hey guys, I have been taking tests for line progression. The top test was two nights ago and the very bottom is tonights. I got a positive clear blue digital this afternoon (1-2 weeks)but then my evening boots test seems a lot lighter? Can this sometimes happen or is there likely something wrong. I will say too the second bottom boots test was only taken this afternoon! Would hcg drop so much in a few hours or is my urine just not great tonight? I’m panicking so any help would be really appreciated 🥺😢

Grandparents helping out

How much do grandparents help out?
Or do they not offer at all?
Interested in working parents, do they help in reducing days baby/child needs to be in nursery? Kids school holidays etc?

Do people think the boomer generation have the wrong reputation in not wanting to help with grandkids?

Pull out method

I’m 2 days late for my period. I’m going to go and buy a pregnancy test in a minute. Has anyone actually got pregnant from the pull out method.

Does anyone know of a good book that speaks about adoption

We have no adopted children but my son's cousins are adopted, my mom was, and my best friend's son.
Recently my 4 year old has been asking questions so I lightly talked about it with him, but I'm looking for more resources so I can make sure I'm phrasing everything correctly.

Conflicting results

Had my first positive test yesterday with a clear blue digital. Took the test this morning to see how far along we are and it was negative.
Did another digital one this morning and it’s positive so have had 2 out of 3 positive. Any one ever experienced this with the digital tests?

Background is that I got my coil removed after 8.5 years end of April and didn’t have a period between then and getting the positive so not able to count from first day of last period
