GBS POSITIVE? 😭 Wanting to stay home for 5-1-1 but now I can’t?

Hey Mommas! I am a new mom, 37 weeks and 5 days. I tested positive for GBS. My plan was to labor at home until 5-1-1 but now they are saying that I must come in after my water breaks within 2 hours. I understand that I have to get the antibiotic etc. but would love to hear more experiences.

Any mommas that could share their positive birth stories or natural stories on how you were able to still cultivate the environment you wanted, how early you went in, how was baby and how penicillin affected your L&D?

Is this a positive pregnancy test?

I have taken a pregnancy test and not sure if I it is positive as it is a very faint line. My period is due any day now so if I am it would be very early

Love for an adopted child

I want to start by saying this post is purely hypothetical and meant to be thought provoking. I’d like everyone to please be respectful and not argue or attack anyone for their opinions.

I was curious about the topic because I’ve always thought that one day I might want to adopt a child. I have a lot of love in my heart to give and would love to offer that love to a child in need. As of now I have no plans to make this a reality though, and I have a child who I gave birth to.

I constantly find myself looking at my child with so much love and adoration and thinking “god you’re so perfect I can’t believe I made you” which made me wonder…..could I feel this same type of love for a child I’ve adopted?

This leads to my question. Do you think you have it in you to equally love an adopted child the same way you’d love your other child you birthed?

More babies?

Is anyone else really wanting another baby immediately after having a baby? Like I am wanting to not be able to have my IUD put in at my six week appointment because I want to be told I’m pregnant. I know you weren’t supposed to do stuff until six weeks with your husband, but I can’t help it. I want him to finish in me so badly because it feels good and I also really want to be pregnant again. Am I crazy or is it other people too?

Could I be pregnant?

So I am 37, definitely thought we were done having kids. My husband had a vasectomy a year ago but never did the follow up tests. My breasts were sore so I took a test this morning. Does this look positive? Nervous about having a kid this late in life. My other kids are 9 and 6.

Clear blue digital, is it a false result?

Has anyone had a false result with a clear blue digital test?

I took one on the first day of my missed period and it said pregnant 1-2 weeks but then started bleeding for 2 days, 4 days after this.

Aware of chemical pregnancies, but just wondered if anyone had ever experienced a false positive result? Thanks

What's the likelihood of a chemical

Im 13 dpo i have a short cycle. My period is due to start tomorrow or the next day. With the last test tonight being that strong whats the likelihood of this ending up being a chemical? My last chemical i remember the tests being much lighter at this stage.... what are other people's experiences with this xx
