Im curious

So I just watched a video of kids being reunited with their dad after several months apart due to being in the army. 😭 it's so heartbreaking.

And I have a genuine curiosity....

I've never understood why any one would want to join the army voluntarily.

I also don't understand how they can stay when they have kids.

Also the wives, how do they manage all the emotions and emptyness that comes with it.

I honestly think if a partner ever wanted to join the army I would have to leave him. I would never want to go through that or put my kids through that.

I had 2 school friends who joined. 1 left because he didn't like it. The other seems to be in a mentally dark space now.

But guestion:

Why do you think so many join the army????

Trying for Baby No 2

We have an 18m old with our last 2 frozen embryos in storage and think we have decided to try again.

We were a long time TTC and our first baby was via our 3rd transfer so I was trying lots of different things, acupuncture, no caffeine/alcohol/perfume, eco friendly brands, drinking bone broth etc!

Our doctor has suggested the same meds which is natural cycle plus progesterone, but with a toddler on the run I don’t know if I’ve got the headspace or energy to do all the “extra stuff” and if any of that helped anyway?

I feel more relaxed this time but also want to give it the best shot so feel like I need to prepare.

Anyone else been in a similar position?

Hypothetically...baby one conceived naturally, would you go through IVF for number 2 ???

1st baby took 9 months to conceive but we've been trying for number 2 for a few months. Know it can take up to a year. Just wondered if anyone would put their body's through IVF to have a 2nd baby, plus the thousands of £££ of cost as NHS wouldn't cover
