Child name change?

Hi all! I’m in a bit of a predicament. My son was born and took his father’s last name due to his request. I tried to speak about double barreling which wasn’t an option. We have since split up and he has tried to stop me changing our sons last name (despite the fact I have made no attempt to) I’m unsure if I actual...

TTC while breastfeeding

Does a faint line on ovulation test mean I am ovulating or no? I’m 11 months postpartum and don’t have a period yet. Trying to see if I’m even ovulating.

My 6 rounds of letrozole failed & we were awaiting IVF referral…
