Thoughts ?

Ok this was a digital but I got curious and wanted to know what the test strip looked like. PLEASE DONT SAY ITS INVALID lol I know it is but I’ve seen many other women do this and find out they’re actually pregnant because it will only show 2 lines if you’re showing trace amounts of HCG. I’ve opened many and only se...

Family wanting to see baby but not you

Since having a baby, one family member wants to see my baby. They never visited me before and now, they just say “I want to see the baby.” They would never ask to meet otherwise. How would you feel?

I can't believe it's real!

This morning I tested to rule out pregnancy as I was 3 days late but we suspected I had an early loss last month that was never confirmed so I thought my cycle was just off. We've been trying for over a year for baby #2 and a line showed up so faintly before I even put it down.

Ovulation test

I had some spotting for 2 days and I tested 4 days later (not morning urine) it was negative and I feel worried now because that is abnormal for me to have that type of bleeding.

Did I test too early?
