Baby number 2

Is anybody ready to have another baby yet? Or have you had another baby? We’re thinking of trying this summer when baby is 2. I’m still EBF though and would love to stop and have some time before I start the journey for the second time. But I want baby to self wean when she and I choose so I’m conflicted.

32 day cycle girlies out there?

I’m 9DPO on a 32 day cycle. Not due AF until the weekend. Did everything right this cycle, LH and BBT tracking, perfectly timed BD. Feel like I’ve been having implantation symptoms since Saturday but not sure if it’s just phantom/hope. Anyone else in a similar boat?

Trying for 2nd baby

Is anyone else at the stage where they’re thinking it’s now time for another baby but also having a gut feeling that it’s a bad idea?? I’m sure it’s normal but I’m so scared! We have such a nice routine with our toddler right now. We want to give him a sibling for when he’s older, but the thought of having another n...

Is this the start to getting a positive?

So I’ve been ttc for almost 3 years and never gotten anything like this due to pcos but have been frequently taking conceive plus ovulation support and the first two lines on my ovulation stops appeared. So my question ladies is this the start of me leading up to my peak or have I missed it 🤔😬 more photos in comments

Here we go again! TWW 👶

Time will tell, hope we did enough. Trying to stay laid back about it and not get too caught up on scheduling in BD on certain days, don’t want it to turn into a chore. Hopefully we have done enough in my fertile window? What do you think?? Positive vibes 🙏🙏✨🤞🤞
