Anyone else?

I’m hoping I’m not alone. We tried for this baby, we are excited and I have love for him. But for the last couple of days I can’t stop the thought of ‘what the f*ck am I doing’ Why did I decide to have another, why am I doing this, is this a good idea?? I’m really frightened.

TSH levels and thyroid medication

Hello 🙋🏼‍♀️, I am getting very confused by my blood results and actions from the consultant and was wondering if anyone can explain it to me who is in the same situation. I used to have stable TSH levels for years (between 1.5 -2.5) on 100mcg LThyroxine. However, the consultant said it’s not enough and increased…

Fixated on the “extra fertile” after MC

I feel fixated on the fact everyone says your hyper fertile after MC and all those stories of people getting pregnant before first period or on first cycle.

Time for a new OB???

My OB just told me to get the MMR booster (my labs showed im no longer immune) and from what I’ve researched that is a big no-no for pregnant women. She also failed to give me a TDAP with my last pregnancy. Thinking it’s time to change obs, am I crazy for doing it?

When did (or are you) planning to have a second child?

My partner seems to get into the heat of the moment and wants to try for a second kid and I’m not so sure about it. We have a 6 month old girl and he already wants to try for another (a boy specifically).

How many times?

For those of you lucky ladies that have conceived already, how many times do you all do it in your fertile window. I'll probably get a peak tonight or tomorrow. Everything is fine with us fertile wise however I think we might not be doing it enough 😒

10 DPO

I decided to test today even though it’s early because I felt weird . I’m so scared. I had a MMC December last year which I had to do D/C on January because I didn’t miscarry naturally. It took me more than two month after the procedure to have a period and I was scared to try again. We tried this month and I tested...

Wanting baby no.2

I love my baby to pieces 💗😍 I'm already wanting another! Please put me off 😭😂 mine is only a few months! But the dad has said he is getting to 40 in 2 years so won't want any after that and I don't want one exactly now but he's changing my mind because I don't want just one baby but feel like it's now or never 🥺
