Has anyone ever had a fake positive with the 1st response pregnancy tests? It’s the 6 days before missed period one, my period is 2 days late but I wasn’t expecting a positive… My husband is going to buy more tests, my heart is beating so fast right now

Ovulation

You know if you get a positive digital ovulation test. Does that mean you’ll ovulate on that day? So if I got a positive today does that mean I’ll ovulate today?

Should I feel bad about having a negative test

I have a 4 month old and on birth control, had a pregnancy scare but it came out negative. I feel relieved that it was but at the same time I'm a little upset about it. Is it normal to feel like this?

If you saw a toddler running towards a busy street and his 8 month pregnant mother running after him yelling his name and for him to stop but she clearly couldn’t catch up to him, would you stop the child or let him run by you?

This happened to me this morning and my neighbor wouldn’t even help. I couldn’t help but think she is racist because she’s Asian and I’m Black. She looked right at me as I ran by her and wasn’t even phased. I’m so disgusted by people who are racist. I wanted to punch her dead in her f****** face. UGH 😤

Been testing at different times of the day to try and get a feel for what works best, but they seem all over the place. Thought this mornings looked s...

I recently started ovulation testing but I’m confused because I didn’t get a peak..

Got my BFP yesterday (DPO 12)!!

What a whirlwind I’ve experienced. In August I went to a new OBGYN to get labs drawn due to a few irregular cycles. I was diagnosed with POI (FSH 60 AMH 0.03) and started to explore my sisters as donors. My husband and I (getting married Wednesday) figured it was worth trying on our own. I pulled out all the stop...
