Help calm my anxiety!

I just got my BFP yesterday at 4w. What do you do to pass the time?? I’m so anxious thinking of worse case scenario. We’ve been ttc for 1.5yrs, so my anxiety is super high thinking it will end in loss. Just need some good ideas to distract me! :)

I don't have many friends so I wanted to share!!

Found out today! Going thru the motions, as a FTM with my now 22 month old it has been hard but I've learned so much. It wasn't "planned" but it was kinda like if it happens, it happens. Hopefully a girl so I don't have to buy new stuff 🤣. Some encouragement would be nice 🙂

I have a 3 almost 4 year old from a previous relationship and now a 2 month old we know we for sure want at least one more and ideally I want to be done having kids before I’m 25.

Keeps delaying ttc

My husband keeps delaying ttc, it's been three years now. He keeps saying he's not ready and feels anxious about it. I have tried everything to make him understand and nothing has worked.

Best time to try

I think I have peaked this afternoon? If we tried to conceive yesterday would it be best to try again on Friday or would it all be done by then? #GeneralTTC #1DPO

Tips on TTC

I have an 18 month old via a c section and only started trying this month. I'm in my mid-30s. When trying for the first, we fell pregnant without really trying but I don't know why this time around I feel like I'm going to struggle to conceive. Does anyone have any tips or things that have helped them?

I’m out 😩

AF arrived this morning I couldn’t help but ball my eyes out. This is our fourth cycle trying since our MC in October. This came after seeing a vvvfl at 9DPO which ended up being an evap line. Such a rollercoaster of emotions. Not to mention my closest cousin just announced her pregnancy to our entire family. This m...

TTC journey

Remember to be kind to each other. We are all on our own journeys and no one knows the battles we are facing. This is the only app I have faced unpleasant comments to advice which was asked for.

Life with 2 under 2

Absolutely terrified, have missed my period this month. What is it like. Is your partner supportive? Do you get time to yourself? Do you have breakdowns more often???
