There are some kinds of pain that are almost impossible to put into words.
On February 1st, 2026, I found out I was pregnant. For a moment, I let myself believe that maybe this was finally our time. But a month later, that pregnancy ended in a missed miscarriage. It was painful, traumatic, and incredibly lonely.
I wish I could say I knew how to carry that grief, but the truth is, I’m still learning how.
Then, a week ago, I took another pregnancy test. There was a faint second line. After everything we had been through, that tiny line brought back a hope I was almost afraid to let myself feel.
But it ended in a chemical pregnancy.
And now I am grieving my second pregnancy loss.
Infertility has already taught me what it feels like to want something with every part of your soul and still not be able to make it happen. Pregnancy loss has taught me that sometimes hope can hurt just as deeply as heartbreak.
I am tired. I am angry. I am sad. I am scared to hope again.
But I am also allowed to grieve these babies, even though I never got to hold them. They were loved. They were wanted. They mattered.
And so do I.
Right now, I don't need anyone to tell me that everything happens for a reason or that it will happen when it's meant to. I just need a little grace while I learn how to carry the weight of two losses that changed me forever.

I honestly feel like i really over packed with my daughter, i went home in my pyjamas because honestly i didnt even care about that i was discharged the morning i gave birth. So far I’ve packed two pairs of pyjamas one short pair one long pair, 2 packs of maternity pads, witch hazel foam, spritz for bitz, toiletries, frida mom pad wipe things, bikini top as i want a water birth, flip flops, 5 pairs of big pants and a spare bra. I need to add in my towel, drinks, a pair of tracksuit bottoms and a top but i honestly cannot think of what else

33 weeks, due October 12th but they are saying my stomach and her head/body are measuring October 4th, weighing 4lbs 10 ozs. Are these things usually accurate? Shes also my third so wonder if that will factor in coming early or not.

Hiya - just wondering whether anyone else has experienced this. I had my baby mid June and am not almost 10 weeks postpartum but still not had my period. Theres no way i could be pregnant as not had sex yet.
Don’t know if this is normal or okay or if I should be concerned.

First time pregnancy here, pregnant with mono di twin girls 🥰 I've been noticing this debate between vaginal birth's and C-section's. I'm seeing that a lot of people only see vaginal births as natural and not C-section's. I personally see them both as natural births. I'm scheduled for a C-section but may have a vaginal one just depending on which way the babies are turned. My husband and MIL wants me to deliver vaginally and I'm like I just want my babies to get here safely regardless.
Is it just me or are people too damn invested in vaginal deliveries? All respectful opinions welcomed!

Anyone taking any GLPs? I started 3 weeks ago but I dont see a difference. Is that normal? I have an appt with my primary on Friday to discuss it but I'm not sure if she'll raise the dosage or keep it the same.
Looking g for other mommy's who are taking it and can relate and share their experiences with.
