I’m a bit confused

I had my daughter a year ago and after about 8 months of having her we have decided to try for another but it’s been about 7 months and still no luck … I thought once you’ve had a baby it was ‘easier’ to conceive I’m just worried somethings a bit wrong/off with me

Norethisterone for inducing a period

Has anyone taking norethisterone to induce a period before starting fertility treatments? Did it work? I've taken it for 5 days and now waiting for my period. This is the second day and still nothing. I'm worried it won't work and then I won't be able to try to conceive 😔

Line eyes please!

Is this positive? Pretty sure I kept within the time frame of 10 mins. Would it look like this even if it went past the time frame? Photo in comments.

Missed a period

Has anyone totally skipped a period with negative tests? Mine is 2 weeks late now. Did your cycle change because of this or did it stay on track with just a month of no bleeding?
