Baby number 2

Is anybody ready to have another baby yet? Or have you had another baby? We’re thinking of trying this summer when baby is 2. I’m still EBF though and would love to stop and have some time before I start the journey for the second time. But I want baby to self wean when she and I choose so I’m conflicted.

Clearblue

Hi guys, Currently trying for my second and I did a clear blue test. I'm due my period any day. I saw a faint line within the ten minutes but after that time it went like this in the photo. Is this a false negative do you think? I've had trouble with these in the past. Thank you 😊💓

Did I come off too strong or did they find someone else?

So, I applied to this job and the recruiter reached out to me on Monday this week to see if I was still interested and when my availability was. I got really excited and replied as soon as I received the email saying that I’m available between my lunch hours and then I emailed again because I forgot to add that I co...

I’m about to sound really dumb for a minute bare with me…

If you have an IUD do you still have to use the pull-out method as well to completely prevent pregnancy? I’m currently on the pill and use the pull out method as an added layer of protection is the IUD the same? Or am I just being extra?

Positive partosure test?

Hi girls, has anyone had a positive partosure test and not gone into labour 7-14 days after? I had a positive test with contractions but the contractions have since stopped and I’ve been feeling completely fine since. Not sure really what to expect over the next few weeks!

IVF query

We are self funding and obviously we’d love it to work first time but I’m trying to prepare myself in case it doesn’t. If we end up with multiple fertilised eggs that get frozen and used for the second cycle what is that called. I’ve looked at the price list and feel like this would be it but I’m not entirely sure.

What should I do?

Looking for some advice/experiences. I’ve previously been to the GP who has tested my hormone levels, my cortisol levels were fine amongst others, but I have very high androgen levels (basically testosterone!) and they said that this is a key thing they look for when diagnosing PCOS. I of course have all of the symp...
