Had my FET this morning. All went well. The embryologist showed us the pic of our blastocyst and said it thawed well. She said in the pic the cells hadn’t filled out yet, but when she checked it later on it had. Trying to not get hung up on this at this point and just praying this one sticks. Had a nice walk in the ...
Do your kids have god parents if you’re not catholic/ religious? I grew up Catholic so I have god parents… but I am not a practicing Catholic, I am spiritual and religious in my own way now… I’d like my kids to have God Parents but feel weird just assigning them without the whole baptism ceremony??? Curious how...
Hello! As a first time mom I am wondering how people are finding ways to bond with their child in the womb?
I had my 36 week midwife appointment today and was advised to start trying to express colostrum. I have given it a go tonight and got the a few tiny beads but I mean tiny, no where near anything I could get into the syringe. How long did take for you ladies to get enough of a droplet to put into the syringe?
Has anyone gone against consultants advice who advised not to transfer, and pushed to transfer?
My baby boy is 8 months and I will not be having any more children. just wondering if anyone has tips on raising an only child? A lot of men I know that are an only child are self centered and not thriving. Ty!
Can anyone give any advice on how to handle wanting baby number 2 but husband being a firm no I’ve bought the conversation up several times over the past year or so and every time I get a no but I would love my daughter to be a big sister. Shall I just leave it and accept that she’ll be an only child or keep brin...
Hi second or multiple children mamas. Im currently pregnant with our second, our first is an absolute angel, very calm, never tantrums. Everyone and I mean everyone jumps on the chance to tell me our second will be a terror and to be prepared. It really makes me down because this baby hasn’t even come into the wor...
My kids father grabbed me in a argument I feel so distant and just not the same towards him anymore
There are absolutely no requirements to raise a child other than a functioning reproductive system (sometimes, not even your own reproductive system). When moms give me advice and I don’t take it they often get offended and say, “This isn’t my first rodeo. I’ve done this before x number of times.” I just kinda nod a...
Hi I’ve been questioned on my mental health so much. The social services want to take my child into a foster placement. I don’t know what to do. I need someone to talk to about it. I feel like I’m in this situation alone. Kindly reach out …
I went to look around a few nurseries with my husband recently for when I'm thinking of going back to work. One of the nurseries seems in line with our values and the staff appeared to care about the children. There was just a feeling inside of me I couldn't shake that having babies being looked after by strangers i...
If so, care to share?
Anyone gotten their “pink” back?.. I swear I feel more exhausted and not myself than I did when I first had my girl. I don’t really have any time away from my girl, I’m a full time sahm. If yall have gotten your pink back, how are yall doing it🫠
I watched a cool YouTube short today that honestly educated me! I guess being in my own country I sometimes forget that labor and delivery is still not open to the dad to be. It’s generally a women’s only space.
Hi ladies, gone anonymous as I have friends in this group 🤭 We already have 2 children, one 5 and 2 year old and we’ve been speaking about baby 3, those who have three children, how did you find it going from 2 to 3? Do they just slot straight in ? Is it harder than going 1 to 2 children… Would love to hear your…
Like a break by giving them a bottle or a break carrying the baby.. it’s like so useless. Then they start talking so much/ asking questions like either be hands on and help or just get out my face.
Did you let the father of your child sign the birth certificate
Did you do KIT days before you went back to work? How many did you do? How many hours a day did you do? Did you space them out or do 1/2 a week to get them out the way? Sorry for all the questions intrigued into what other people have done as I'm coming up to the time where I need to start thinking about doing my ...
What was your experience? How should I prepare.
