I haven’t had any other sexual partners, I’ve been with mine for the last 8 years, I also haven’t told him how my ...

Sexy time?

I’m having conflicting feelings about it. I want to try (I’m 21+6) and hubby and I have not had sexy time since May due to ivf/pregnancy stuff and I want to try, but I’m scared of what it will feel like and I have read that some women bleed after. Im going to talk to my medical providers this week about it, but want...

Positive or no?

For starters I probably should have taken this test in a few days and in the morning but I was impatient. You can see it better in person but I'm just not convinced I still have an iud I know it's possible but. I'd be happy though we actually have an appointment on the 20th to get my iud removed!! Thoughts??

Grandparents and childcare expectations

Just wanted to see different views about this question. We live very far from family and have done all the parenting on our own. It has been exhausting and childcare so unaffordable that we know we can never have another child. We do dream about "oh wouldn't it be wonderful if we had some help, even if it was just o...

One and done or one more??? Ahhhh

So I’m 40, almost 41. I’m so conflicted going back and forth and back and forth on having one or going for the second. I wish I was younger so I didn’t feel such a pressure to have to make that decision so quickly. I just had my first in May and I feel like I have to do it right away if I’m going to. But it’s overwh...
