Very emotional

I have to put my boy in nursery earlier then expected (September) so we can get funding otherwise we will miss the cut of stage. Im feeling so emotional about this. My daughter is also starting big girl school in September and I'm emotional about this. Feels like I'm losing both my children within a week of each other 😭😭

Collecting colostrum too soon !!!

Hi all I’m a little worried as I was given a colostrum collection kit at my 36 midwife app and she said I could start collecting….im 36+2, ive just collected 3full syringes. I then wanted to do some more research on it to see if that’s a normal amount, and it says not to start until 37weeks. Have I just massively f’d up !????

Do you see the crossing line?

I swear I see a faint line 🤞 but need a second opinion. I tested a few days early, so this is expected but is it positive?!

Is it too early to self refer ?

Hi everyone! Firstly, congratulations to all the new mums! 🥰

I’m currently 11 DPO (4 weeks + 3 days) and have had positive, although faint, lines on both an Easy@Home and a Clearblue test.

I was just wondering if it’s too early to complete my self-referral, or if I should wait until I get a stronger line? I’m planning to take a digital test in a few days, but I’d love to hear what everyone else has done or would recommend. Thanks! 😊
