Positive stories of conceiving

Does anyone have positive stories for us fighting through our anxiety about conceiving on their first attempt or shortly after? I know a lot of factors go into it, but it feels nice to hear positive stories.

Could this be a real positive

I suffer from PCOS I’m irregular and don’t always ovulate. Been tracking ovulation this cycle and haven’t gotten anywhere just thought I’d do a pregnancy test I usually get negative results but have just gotten a second faint line

Advise

I am 1 week late for period, I did a test which I think was a false positive 4 days ago because this has been followed by 2 definite negative tests. But, I’m still not on? I’ve had mild spotting on and off, I’m normally very regular so wondering if anyone has had this and tested positive eventually?

Evap or positive?

I'm roughly 10dpo. I had a chemical pregnancy last cycle. I ovulated again 2 weeks after. I did a test yesterday(9dpo) and i could see this very faint like within the 10 mins. 30 mins was a lot darker and noticeable. I did another this morning (10dpo) and can see a very faint line in the 10mins. What do people think...

Anyone planning to TTC in May?

Several months ago my husband and I decided that we would start trying for our second child in May. My period just started today and that means just one more cycle before we start trying! I'm anxiously excited for May to get here. I haven't shared this with anyone in my personal life so I suppose this just let's me ...

Iui

Me and my husband just started the cycle for iui number two. I finished taking 5 days worth of leterzole two days ago. We both feel very confident and have a good feeling about this cycle. We can't tell if it's because we know what to expect with a iui or if our gut feeling is that it'll work. Anyone else have this?

When did you start to find it easier?

My LG is 7 weeks and everything still feels so endless. The rewarding parts of motherhood are few and far apart, it mostly just feels like fighting fire after fire. Some people have said it improves around 10-12 weeks but I don’t know how much I trust it. When did it get easier for you?

Faint positive test

I had a faint positive test around 16 DPO. Is this normal? I thought the second line should be a bit darker. Should I be concerned? I tested in the morning

I have a dilemma

I’m in a dilemma and really struggling with this. How would any of you feel about having to share your nonverbal child with her father and his current girlfriend—someone who has insulted you, mocked your mental health, made fun of your body, and sent so much hate your way? Would you feel comfortable sending your chi...
