Peak or not?

Is this my peak for this cycle. I’m cycle day 20. I don’t usually get dye stealers ever on either LH or HCG strips. Usually only lines that match up. Should I take this as my peak?

Anyone used a doula before or using one for this pregnancy? Contemplating using one and just wanted to see what others experience was before making a decision.

9dpo line eyes

I’m 9dpo and think I’ve got line eyes. I swear I can see a slight shadow of a line, it’s thick and in the right place. Can anyone see it? Going to retest tomorrow morning but definitely got my hopes up!

No antenatal appointment until 10-12 weeks

I think it’s absolutely disgusting that down south you don’t get contacted by a midwife until your 10-12 weeks!! All their websites say care from day 1 but where is the care? Unless you’re to book privately you don’t have any reassurance that your pregnancy is going okay.

S3x before 6 weeks

My baby was born on the 1st and hubby and I had s3x around week 2 and I didn’t have any problems or issues with anything. However I’m wondering if we messed up or we might be fine!

Midwife’s MK

Anyone had Melissa as their midwife? Had an appointment with her and she was so rude and unhelpful when I’ve been having symptoms she ignored me and did my measurements wrong etc. Thinking to complain as left & have been crying since as felt so unsupported & had never met her before

Anyone else trying to walk as much as possible through the pregnancy? I've noticed that if I walk lots I don't get as many sugar issues going on 😔 unfortunately I got the beetus gene from birth

So far I've walked outdoor an extra 45 miles more than just regular life walking this month Pro tip buy the belly tape walking is way more enjoyable with the tape 😁
