We were lucky enough to get pregnant on the first cycle of clomid with our son. Has anyone used clomid for second baby and been successful?🤍

Has anyone had the mirena coil. Pros and cons pls. I’m hearing more negative than positives so pls could you share your experiences as the mirena seems like it most suitable for me (instead of oral or copper iud)

Anyone on for more than a year. Looking for pros and cons. Coppper and other IUDs. Please be comfortably as honest and candid as possible. There is no TMI lol

I'm scheduled to get an IUD on Tuesday. Give it to me straight - how was your experience? I hear nothing but terrible things so I am extremely nervous to get it placed.

I got pills, they’re multiplying… and I’m loosing control (mainly of my emotional stability)… Ok, so it’s a bad Greace pun, but if you’re also using humour to stay sane through TTC struggles, and have an imminent cycle drop me a 🙌! I’m on track for FET 4th Feb, and would love to find a TWW buddy 🙏🏻 Sorry for the…

My husband just expressed that he wants to practice abstinence. Bc neither one of want to bring kids into this world. I tried to get an IUD, but it can't be placed bc of scar tissue I have. We don't have health insurance or else he'd get snipped. I'm upset he doesn't want to be intimate anymore.

As part of my IVF process, I've been taking estrogen and progesterone medication and pessaries and have been told to just stop at 12 weeks. was wondering if anyone else has done this and if there were any effects? Thank you
