At what week did you get your blood drawn and did anyone have experience (or know someone) whose came back inconclusive? I’m 9w 3d and I’d love to go this week! But I’d hate to have it inconclusive.

First and last baby for you?

Hey ladies, I had my first baby this year at 37yrs old and i definitely want to have another. How old were you all when you had your first and last? I want to be done by the time I’m 40 but that’s doesn’t give me a lot of time. Is there anyone that had a baby after 40? If so how are you finding life?

Yet another announcement from our baby group of friends 😫

Mentally, I'm doing ok but I'm getting so impatient! 6 months in and I just want to get that positive and be done with it. We are only going to have two children so this one is hopefully our second and last TTC. I hate that it takes some of us so long 😭

Found a packet of viagra with some missing after my partners been on a lads weekend away

A few times I've found viagra in my partners bag after being on a lads holiday. Once it was an empty packet. I've said something to him about it every time and it's always been " it was for my mate" and "it's just a piece of rubbish in a bag why are you kicking off". Am I being naive in believing he's not cheated?

Each time I've pulled him up on it he's said "it's for my mate" "it's just a piece of rubbish in a bag". Am I being gullible in believing he's not cheated? I dont want to kick off in case it reall...

Baby number 2?

Is anyone feeling really broody and thinking of trying for baby number two? Thinking of when to try and the age gap (around two years) and how we’d manage with that. Anyone else in the same boat? What’s your thoughts? I feel like we are already in the thick of it with naps and nappies so why not continue 😅

How is everyone else feeling?

I’m losing hope. I’m 9/10DPO and at first I thought my body feels different. I had cramps, I had constipation, I had diarrhoea, sore gums, loss of appetite. But no implantation bleeding, negative tests. I’m holding onto hope that it’s still too early. But what if it’s not. We BD all the way through our fertile windo...
