anyone considering baby no2?

anyone considering trying for baby number 2? We want another but not sure if we should wait or just start trying now as might be nice having a closer age gap so they can grow up together.. However I am also feeling guilty if I did! TIA xx

Honey

My sons about to turn one and I’m having a hard time of thinking that honey will be okay then! It’s been such a big no no I feel panicked - I know I don’t have to give him it but I’d like him to try everything so would like to get over the anxiety

Anyone have less cm and get a BFP?

Has anyone had less cm rather than more after ovulation and gotten a BFP? I’m feeling super good about this cycle other than the fact that I barely have any cm. The last time I was pregnant I had a ton of cm, but then last cycle I had a ton and was sure I was pregnant but wasn’t.
