Do you judge someone based on how many kids they have?

Why do people always have something to say whether you’re one and done or have 5+ kids or no kids at all! Surely it’s every individual’s own personal decision. I won’t lie even though I would not say it to a person’s face even I find myself secretly judging.

Be honest, do you judge and what are your thoughts when judging?

I put yes judging. I don't necessarily judge every person with 5+ kids but I do if they are struggling/not managing then continue adding more kids. More cos I feel sorry for the kids.

Don't judge people for no kids or one and done.

Im one and done myself and have def gotten shit for that decision. I wouldnt personally enjoy having a large amount of kids so sometimes its hard for me to understand the desire. But the only time I would judge and have judged is if they diddnt have the resources to care for more children, plan on using older siblings to raise the younger siblings, or the justification is that they want someone to love them unconditionally and they just get pregnant again as soon as their child can express their own personality and opinions

(I knew someone who openly admitted this was her plan when she did decide to have to have kids. She also anticipated using her violent and mentally and psychologically abusive mother to provide childcare until the older ones can raise the younger ones)

What does this mean?

It looks like only 1 line but i think it’s the test line not the control line showing? Not sure.

Baby dads new kid

So my baby dad has never been involved or met My daughter he wasn’t intrested and said some nasty things and I think it’s best for her having him not there when she’s older I will tell her who he is as it’s her right to know an when she’s older she can decide on whatever she wants ti do he’s never been intrested but now he’s got a new baby with his gf and is involved and was happy with this baby I and I don’t know how to feel it’s not the baby’s fault or the mums but it’s weird to think m you daughters got a half sibling but I’m scared on how she will feel growing up if she feels rejected or not good enough I had a similar situation with my mum growing up and jus don’t want her to feel the same way and ofc if she ever wants to know her brother when she’s older it’s up to her as he’s still her brother but I don’t know jus keep thinking about it a lot and I’m sorry if this doesn’t make best sense I’m not good at writing things out 😭

Fertility treatment for 2nd child (NHS-UK)

I have PCOS and I am 10 months pp.
Im 31 and I had to use clomid and HCG to achieve pregnancy with my 1st. I have just been diagnosed as pre menopausal as well as having hyperthyroidism. Im still breastfeeding my 10 month old and want to continue until he is 12 months old at least.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do to get pregnant? The NHS wont fund my 2nd and with my body clock rapidly ticking, I am terrified I wont be able to have a 2nd. We really cant afford private fertility treatment 😔
