Hello! I had a baby in October and my period is late (2-days). We have done the pull-out method so unlikely to be pregnant, in either case, just did a test it seems negative but there somehow seems to be a line there (just ordered another test just to make sure). Do you also see the line, or would you say this is ne...

Been trying since October 2023 😞 I’ve had 2 MMC, both at 11 weeks. Last one was August 2024. I’m actually getting very tired of TTC. It’s so emotionally exhausting. At what point do we give up? 😢 Period due this week and negative test this morning

I took a pregnancy test last week because I was feeling nauseous all day and when I tried to eat food it was all unappetizing to me. It came back negative so I let it be but I also did test at night when hcg levels are low and I hadn’t missed my period yet. Now my period is late 3 days but I’ve been cramping the pas...

I'm only 8dpo and I'm assuming this is a BFN. A tiny part of me wants to see a vvvfl... but I could be going mad. Thoughts? X

I'm only 1 DPO, and I'm going out of my mind already, googling everything, or using Chat GPT. How do you keep busy? I have work 3 X this week so that's something but any tips to stay occupied would be great 🙏🏼

What are your thoughts on ‘soft parenting’? Personally, the only children I’ve known/seen being soft parented have been right little sh*ts! Simply are left to get away with bad behaviour and don’t face any consequences. Now everyone in this day and age wonders why children and young adults have no respect.

Hello I’ve had an egg collection today and only 3 eggs were collected. I have low ovarian and reserve and am 39. I can’t stop crying. I feel like there is no hope of it working.

Anyone who’s applied for child benefits still waiting? I applied on the 4th of Feb, and haven’t started receiving it yet

Never taken a non-digital one before?

Hi, I’ve tested positive this morning after having a miscarriage last month. Miscarriage was on the 15th Feb. Could this positive still be from last month? Tests last month were no where near as dark as this one. So confused 🤯

Top one took over five mins to show bottom two are extremely faint

Any words of wisdom, tips, or advice for someone about to start the IVF process please?
