Community Posts, Tips & Support on Planning for a Baby

Hey girls, I took a pregnancy test this morning and I don’t know if this is positive as I can see a faint line? Or am I just seeing it? I will take another test on Monday so maybe it’s more stronger and I might be testing early.

My son (almost 4 months) is half white (his dad), half Korean (me). I have heard that it’s important to teach a child about both parents’ cultures. I see the value in this but I have a dilemma. I was adopted as an infant and raised by white parents so I know very little about Korean culture. I guess it just feels ...

I’m currently 13 days late, period was due on the the 8th. There are absolutely no signs of a period coming and I’ve tested multiple times this week all tests are clearly negative! What should I do?

Is this test dark enough for 21 DPO?

Has your partner got a vasectomy? Were you both 100% sure?We have 2 boys already but was wondering if i should hold off first. However i know he is about 98% sure. I am maybe 75%. But i want to support him coz he seems ready to get it done. What would you do?

Does anyone have any idea why Ive got a missed period and took 3 pregnancy test, all negative. My lower right side is a little painful but not unbearable. Just uncomfortable. almost like a cramp on one side but it comes and goes. 2 yrs pp if that matters. and im now 9 days late on my period TIA💕

I’m almost certain that this is a positive and I’ve got loads of symptoms with this but not due on for another four days so it’s super early still I used an ultra early test

Positive test or evap line? Test from first thing this morning. Don’t want to get my hopes up 😢 11 DPO. Took a test yesterday and was negative. Took another one at lunch and can see a very faint line I think.

11 collected- 6 mature, 6 fertilised and no blastocyst.. Clinic mentioned that they were slow to grow and were of poor quality since the beginning. Does anybody know how to interpret embryo report? How do you move forward from this, it’s devastating. 4 yrs ttc , 3 early losses, mild endo on ovary and left ovary stuc...

Does it actually helps in conceiving quickly?

Hello everyone, I just wondering how long of trying is normal at this age! I’ll turn 40 this June and we are trying for a second baby for months now ( I really can’t have more s*x than that 😂) and nothing happens. I start feeling I shouldn’t be trying at this age but I really want a second child. I am just looking…

So my period isn’t due for another 8 days however yesterday I did a test and it was positive and then this morning I did a digital and it’s come up positive, I just didn’t expect to see a digital positive so early considering I haven’t even missed my period yet

Okay so I’m about 8dpo and got a positive on an early detection digital test today but then before bed I got curious and wanted to test again 🙉 it was just a regular clear blue text no early detection and no line came up! Wish I didn’t retest now 🙉 is there a big difference between the early detection tests I’m…

Hi I had a natural pregnancy in my early 40s. Baby wasn’t planned. Do you think it’d be as simple to conceive again at 44 once / if we start trying ?

Not sure if this is the right forum. My probation ended a couple of days ago but I've not been explicitly told I've passed. My last 2 months haven't gone exactly to plan (some factors out of my control such as being the only one left in the team etc) 1- can you assume you've passed probation if you've not been t...

Hey, trying not to get hopes up as we’re only 9 dpo but wondering if this classes as a “faint positive line”? And if so, any recommendations of a more sensitive test? TIA!

I swear u need a degree to work out ovulation tracking! So had a static smiley on the CB ovulation digital test. Day before that was just the circle (so no flashy face… is that weird?) And then today (4days after the positive test) I get some ewcm, when on earth did I ovulate? Does the discharge come after the p...

HCG levels at 1830 and in roughly 4/5 weeks are these really low or not?

We were given the go ahead for another round of IUI! First resulted in a loss, husband's sperm count more than doubled and motility is 75 percent. God is soooo good!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 This whole process is so humbling. A sincere good luck to every one of you ladies.

I wondered if I might be able to ask this lovely community for some help! I am about to complete my Master's degree in Psychology and need to complete my dissertation. Inspired by my own experiences, I have decided to explore the topic of finding belonging as a stepmum in an attempt to understand more about the ch...
