I’m tired of hearing the constant nagging from grandparents on how I take care of my baby. Shit is annoying! Sorry venting 😡🤬

Do you love your parents more or your children more?

Had anyone tried mucinex and it had worked

Hi all! I don’t know what I’m doing or what anything means lmao when I got pregnant with my first I just got pregnant and now he’s almost 4 and we’re trying for another one! Ran some tests today, what does the ovulation one mean? Should I try or wait? Thanks!

Took this today, after being late, I check it looked negative, left and came back after a while and had this, seems a lot thicker then other evap lines I’ve had but I know it’s out of the window to read it. Is that normal or should I test again in the morning? The line is all the way up, just hard to get a good pho...

Hi everyone. Tomorrow I go back to work and it’s the first day my parents have my son (age 1) for the full day. They raised me and I “turned out fine”. They were good parents, but things have obviously changed a lot in the last 3 decades. Things that you would think are common sense about looking after a baby so...

Hi random question has anyone helped a step parent with getting parental rights in order to help their partner with their step child? We are thinking about this for the long run . But the step parent does above & beyond for the child, even attending appointments etc . Can anything like this be arranged?

I feel like I can see the tiniest shadow (more so on the bottom test) but it may be Hope making me see things 😂

Am I unreasonable for not wanting my 3 month old passed around family members to be held, at a party? Being made to feel as though I am paranoid and too anxious?

Why do I feel like I always see a shadow of a line on these tests? Is it just my bad line eyes or do others agree?! It drives me crazy!

Has anyone else had bad indents on the wondfo test strips? The past two days I’ve had two different indents both from different packs?

This is my ovulation test from this afternoon, i pictured it a couple times as the lighting wasn’t great and kept getting different readings but they were all high. (My morning one was high too just not as high as this afternoon) I’m assuming I’ll be peaking soon? When’s best to BD? Thanks

How many days did everyone test positive on a pregnancy test and when did you get symptoms??

Hi guys. Sorry if the picture is not very good, I did a pregnancy test this morning about 7am, now it being the afternoon this line has appeared, the bottom bit is colour but the top is faint. Would you say this is an evap line? Any help is appreciated. I am going to carry on testing anyway as my period is currently...

I downloaded this app to try and track my ovulation date. The purple circle is the day I ovulate according to the dates of my last period, the pink flowers are fertile days and the hearts are days me and my partner had unprotected sex. Looking at these days is it likely I could get pregnant this month?

Bought my ‘forever pram’ in early November decided we were going to wait a few weeks to open it as we were in the middle of moving and all that crap so we waited to open it together in LO room we tested it out I loved it and so did my partner the moment was special until we tried getting through the door to our hom...

I’m going in tomorrow for my retrieval and am quite anxious about the health of my eggs at 43. How soon do you find out what they are graded at? And any success stories with more mature eggs?

Hi all. I’m currently recovering from the flu which has had me in bed and barely eating for a week. I’m due to have a frozen embryo transfer later this month. Should I consider postponing? Worried about reduced chances of success because of my illness. Thanks

I'm not sure if anyone can offer advice please. Currently ttc my second. I have been using clearblue advanced ovulation tests for a while now with no luck. This week, on Thursday, I got my first flashing smiley this month, so high fertility. On Friday I got a static smiley, so peak. I tested again last night (Saturd...

Is this definitely a positive?
