Just ranting in a space where people understand…

Not looking for advice or anything, but we’ve been TTC baby #2 for 5 months now and I’m feeling very defeated. Trying not to stress about it and remember that we’re already doing everything right but it’s so hard 😩 I also don’t have anyone else to talk to about this (besides my husband, of course) and it’s very…

Does this make sense to anyone?

The 0.39 and 0.70 were from yesterday. Today, the line is so much darker and it's reading 0.18. Does this make sense to anyone? Is the premom app wrong? Please let me know. Thank you!

Confusion

Hi, I’ve tested super early but I got two positives (faint lines) with the clear blue early indicator test. One of these was even in the evening. But I’ve done the red line test and it’s negative.

Positive or negative? 👀

This picture is from this morning when I took the test. I’m most likely around 8-9 DPO, so I guess pretty early. It came up within 3 minutes or less and is faint but pretty visible.

RhD Negative and a sweep?

Anyone had a sweep with negative blood type? I know they say to expect spotting/some bleeding after a sweep, but how have you found it and were you told to get an extra Anti-D injection? I’ve had so many of the injections at this point, I’ve lost count but I wasn’t sure if it was the same process for a sweep?
