Community Posts, Tips & Support on Trying to Conceive

How am I broody already my baby is 3 weeks old & all I’m thinking about is having more babies lol. I’m a FTM & also 35 so I know I have less time on my side. When is an acceptable time to start trying for a second?

I am super excited and anxious about it but we already started trying! I was ovulating today and decided to just go for it! I’m super anxious but so happy at the same time. I hope it happens for us. Any advice from mommas with a baby and a toddler greatly appreciated. If we conceive soon, my baby girl will be about ...

I went in for movements yesterday and everything is good. They did bloods too and my platelets have dropped from 187 to 139 in only 4 weeks. I have to have another blood test on Friday and any further drop they want to induce.

I really want another baby but my partner isn’t ready yet 😭 is anyone else in this situation?

I’ve had it for over 4 years and I’m very sad to let it go .. it was there throughout the TTC journey and my pregnancy with my first son however it’s time for trying for baby number 2 . I’ve had a miscarriage in April , and unsuccessful months while trying to conceive since November 2023 , everyday I’m checking Flo ...

Anyone in the dreaded period has arrived club? Seeing all these positive tests is hard, I really want one of my own. My periods are so heavy too, it sucks!

Does anyone else struggle with this? To the point you’re on or have considered medication? I’d love to chat to people in a similar situation x

Just passing the 6 month mark of TTC baby number 2 for me baby number 1 for my partner and another BFN today at 12dpo 😭 I know 6 months isn’t that long but I really thought it would of happened by now 😓 What have you girls done that you thought helped conceive? I’m 27 my partner 25 so we’re a good fertile age…

Mama’s who have had a baby, how did you know it was the right time to have another? My son is 25 months old now and I’d love another baby but on the other hand, I get so so stressed out and don’t know how I’d manage with 2!? But I also don’t want a massive age gap😫

Hi everyone, how long after a surgical management did people’s period return? I’m four weeks since the procedure and desperate for my period to return so we can TTC again. Feels like it’s not over until I get that first period!

Hi all! My LO is one year old and we are TTC again. I have ovulation strips from last time and digital ovulation sticks from last time - does anyone know if these expire? Also, has anyone else been lucky the second time around? Took us 3 months last time to get pregnant in Oct 2022.

I am 11 months pp and I don’t know if I’m the only one. Plus sorry if this is tmi. But after being healed I feel like when I have to go pew that I can’t hold it like I used to. If I have the urgency I better hurry cause a couple times where I didn’t make it and peed myself some and it’s embarrassing.anybody else?

What was your symptoms of pcos? I’m sure I do have it I’ve thought I have since I was younger but never tested for it (will be soon) I’ve always suffered with the worst periods

I just peaked on CD 25. My last cycle was 39 days long. There's so much waiting and I feel like it takes so long to get to my fertile window. Anybody else in the same boat?

I'm 7 or 8 DPO so I know it's still early- just couldn't help myself. I feel like I can MAYBE see something but maybe I'm imagining it! Of course I'll keep testing. I'm 3 or 4 days away from when AF is expected! Help!

This is in no way judgemental, I’m genuinely trying to understand why. Having one baby puts our bodies through so much, and 4th trimester isn’t just 3months, it takes way longer to feel ‘normal’ for most women. I am always amazed+terrified of hearing moms having 2 under 2 (esp with less than 18m between babies). Wha...

I’m really struggling. I’ve been TTC for just over a year (however been wanting to try for many years before that so it feels a lot longer). I’m about to speak to my Dr to start with tests etc, is there anything particular I should ask about? I feel really low and finding it hard to keep positive. I just want it so...

Would love to hear experiences/tips for EC in early early childhood! Was it worth the effort? We’ll be doing a mix of cloth diapering and disposable diapering but definitely interested in people’s experiences with EC! A little context for our situation - First time mom, I’ll be home with baby for foreseeable futu...

Am I the only one who watches YouTube blog videos of families with they newborn baby? I’ve done it with my first child and now doing it with my second to come baby… for me it just makes time go by easier for me and it prepares me for when my baby comes…

Husband and I decided to start trying for our next baby. Figured it might take a while cause it took 6 months to get pregnant with my first and I’m still breastfeeding every 2-3 hours during the day.
