One and done?

Seeing a few posts about Baby number 2, anyone else in the one and done club? The idea of going through it all again fills me with anxiety and dread rather than excitement so while I mourn the idea of a sibling for my baby, I would rather be a halfway decent mum to one than a substandard mum to two.

Negative and positive test

Hi girlies, I just posted my positive but I’ve done another test an hour after (a second HCG and Clearblue) and they’ve both come back negative within the space of one hour. I’m 14 dpo and period is one day late… I’ll test again tomorrow but has anyone experienced this? I was so exited for all of an hour 😞

Ovulation?

Hello so I started metformin last month, I've been having problems trying to track my ovulation. I've seen people have super dark ovulation tests and I've never gotten close to that.

Difficulty getting pregnant

Hi everyone! I have a 1 year old, and have been trying to get pregnant for around 6 months now.
