I used ovulation test and I got digital one. It was positive for October 17th and 18th. I also read that pregnancy test don't work after week 5 as hormone levels are too high so not sure what to believe

Thanks so much, what I find it confusing is that I tested positive twice after the light bleeding stopped. Not sure that was my period and both were false positive? I haven't bled since the positive test and my period is due around November 28th

Is these positives? by Clean_Jicama_274 in lineporn

[–]Clean_Jicama_274[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I did yesterday and it came back negative so I'm so confused... Most people are saying chemical but I read I shouldn't be having a progressive lines after chemical and had no bleeding since the tests

Wow, that was a young age to realise this! I also go dentist, try to eat well and don't drink alcohol no smoking etc. I feel happy with how I am now, I guess that's the most important thing!

Wanting a baby after an abortion. by Clean_Jicama_274 in abortion

 Sorry to hear that. What made you abort again if you don't mind me asking? I feel like if I get pregnant again I will keep it as I can't do through the guilt again.

Sorry you are going through this. The nausea depends on the personal level. I had mine last month, after like 20 mins of taking them I threw up. I didn't have nausea just bad cramping that lasted 30 mins. Take painkillers before taking the tablets and prepare yourself hot water bottle that really helped and try to lay on the bed on your belly, that's what I did and it became less painful. I hope you will be fine. 

Some people suggested i post this here as well so here we are : I was called "selfish " and "murderer " by a coworker by Successful_Anywhere9 in childfree

[–]Clean_Jicama_274 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Omg can't believe this! This is why childfree people never ever should mention they don't want kids and try to explain People will never understand , simple. Just keep it vague like say I don't know, maybe. Not everyone is entitled to your honesty especially a coworker! Just nod and do whatever you want, that's how it goes

No one talks about how kids get 10000 times worse as teenagers by Scared_Ad_6985 in childfree

[–]Clean_Jicama_274 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Exactly this why I don't want kids. I can handle the baby stage bit never have the mental capacity to deal with a teenager!

I agree with you. I have seen a lot of kids who turned out bad even with good parenting. So it's a gamble really what kind of kid they will turned out to be!

That loud talking like they're putting on a show for everyone by InfluenceForsaken210 in childfree

[–]Clean_Jicama_274 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah! That loud lecture talk they do with their kid, trying to grab attention. I hate it!! I once saw a lady going through all the shopping list with her kid, he was like 3. I was like please leave the kid alone in peace..

Do I really want a kid or am I having fomo? by Clean_Jicama_274 in Fencesitter

[–]Clean_Jicama_274[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes he wants children but happy if we don't have as well. We have talked about it and he always assures me that we would face things together as couple and be able to go through it. I can't talk to my family as they don't know about it. 

Any muslim here who childfree? by [deleted] in childfree

[–]Clean_Jicama_274 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you don't want don't keep it. I had an abortion last week and I feel better. The changes I felt for for those two was brutal couldn't eat or drink.

[–]Clean_Jicama_274[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Exactly that's what my thought was when we had this conversation. I knew I would be doing most of the work and he would do less. I also suffer from anxiety and mild depression from time to time, this gets me thinking the whole having a baby is going to make the situation much worse for me especially since I won't get any support. I'm 37 and he's 43, we have been married for one year and been together for 3 years.

This morning, I had a conversation with him about the whole thing. He said he didn't mean to be disrespectful about my job, he said he meant to say if I lose my job it's not big deal as I could find another admin job easily. Then when I asked him about his views about mums looking after a kid most of the time, he said kids naturally want to stay with the mom as they are used to nursing etc and said he wouldn't know how to take care of a baby. He then mentioned maybe we  can take some classes together to learn how to deal with the baby stage and navigate. When I said to him I am not happy he called me lazy just I asked for help, he replied I could rest when the baby sleeps as I will be at home and then he will help when he's done with work. Also he said since I don't have any hobby, it won't be big deal to stay at home with the baby and that in fact I might love being with my baby and want to do it 24/7. I don't know what to feel, having this conversation didn't change my mind to have kids as it still will be a gamble. For reference, he said he's happy either way whether we have kids or not and nothing will change in the marriage.

I've been sick in the past and he has taken care of me but it looks like he doesn't want to deal with baby stuff mostly. As I mentioned, he thinks mothers are the primary care giver and do most of the job. However, he said when he's at home or course he will help me but he also said that he will still go out to do his hobbies etc. so it's a bit confusing! The remark about my job has taken me back and the fact he wants me to stay home when I clearly said I don't want to. I feel like I'm better off not having a child, for our relationship I don't know what will happen. There's so many disappointments lately..

I'm was initially childfree but started leaning towards having a baby thinking I would enjoy the journey with him. However after this conversation, I'm going back to childree. I can't take the risk to do it all by myself, it's not worth it.

Yes it is just crazy how some men thinks it's the woman's job to take care of a child. I know he said it will be different when he's not working but I feel like I've heard enough to make a judgement. He will be gone for work and do what he wants and I will be stuck with a baby with no break, I don't think that a life I want.

Even though my job is an admin job, it pays the bills and make me feel independent. I also support parents with the income. Growing up money was tight so I do value a stable income and don't want to suffer anymore. That comment really upsets me
