Is today getting lighter?

I am so terrified that this pregnancy is not going to last. I had my first beta on 9dp5dt thinking the cycle had failed, but my beta came back at 6 (super low). Then on 11dp5dt it came back at 22 (3.6x higher) and my clinic told me to be cautiously optimistic. The last easy at home was this morning, the one above it...

PERIOD STARTED 🎉

I don’t think I’ve ever been this excited to start my period 🤪😅 We are OFFICIALLY ttc baby #2. And I put an emphasis on the officially because I just recently had a surgery that hopefully cured my infertility 🙌🏻 We won’t know until we officially try but it’s so exciting to be this hopeful. It took us 4 years…

Anyone else struggling? It hit me in waves with my first but with my second it's like every night. One night it got bad and I thought I was having heart problems.

Does it look like I will be close to getting my peak soon?

Started TTC baby number 2 this month, and I’m feeling all the feelings. I have irregular cycles lasting 30-40 days on average. I’m on cycle day 20 now so I’m worried maybe I missed it or something.

Are any other ladies feeling called to skip pregnancy tests altogether?

Starting my two week wait:) This is my 3rd cycle ttc, the last 2 I didn't test, just waited for my period to come. I plan on doing that again. If I were to miss my period, I think I'd want to skip the tests still. Something about being in the mystery and getting to tune into my body feels like exactly what I'd need ...

TTC with a irregular period

My fiancé and I have been trying to conceive for 10 months now, and I’m just wondering if there’s any tips that could be useful to help me get pregnant. I’m currently taking fertility vitamins like I did when I conceived my son but they don’t seem to be working this time around so any tips/advice will be grateful :)

Trying for baby number 2

We were lucky with our June baby as she was a surprise so we never went through the trying for a baby phase.

How do people cope with this disa...
