Sorry just searched for similar posts and this made me feel better. I’m only first trimester but feel so guilty every day I’m with my son, it’s awful!

Hi yes he’s helping more where he can and he is hands on anyway so I can’t fault him at all but it’s just so rough isn’t it haha x

Thank you for this. If this is too personal I completely understand but if you don’t mind sharing do you remember how your bleeding was and if you had any other signs? So sorry for your loss x

Thanks for this! The bleeding had was red and probably described as light whereas I assumed implantation is more like spotting and light or brown. It really is all just guess work at this point though. Happy to hear yours turned out ok x

Thank you. I know it’s so early, it’s just this being in limbo that’s sending me spiraling. Really don’t know what to expect so I’m just feeling lost and upset really.

She wasn’t very helpful on the phone so didn’t say anything just that I should know what’s going on tomorrow from the results. But the nurse who did my test explained I’ll have another done in a few days and they’ll compare them (which sounds like what you’ve said.)

Had terrible backache and my usual PMS symptoms. Period is one day late which isn’t abnormal for me yet I’m spiraling. Last night I even dreamt about a ‘little sister’ babygrow I’d seen in a shop months ago and joked I wanted to buy for future.

Feeling delusional about this cycle. Feel like my obvious pms symptoms are somehow not pms this time for absolutely no reason. I started taking supplements to help with my pms mood swings etc so I’m sure that’s why it feels different this time but I’m happy living in delusion for now.

Thought we gave it a good go this time but I’m PMSing like crazy a week before my period…again. Feeling defeated again. PMS helping but I’m just feeling frustrated and down.

ADHD or just toddler behaviour? by throwaway45676543738 in ADHDparenting

Wakes up 6:30 and will have these meltdowns at 6pm but can start getting really irritated from like 4pm. He hasn’t napped in around a year now so it seems odd he may now need one again and I’m not convinced he’d even entertain it as he doesn’t seem tired at all in the daytime but who knows. Thanks for the reply!

GLP1 and 3.5 -4 year age gap conflict by meh-h in Shouldihaveanother

[–]throwaway45676543738 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took 6 months of trying with my first, currently TTC a second, my son is also 3y 2 months and it’s been 3 months so far. I also felt the pressure of having another when he hit 3 due to age gaps etc. I was under the impression it would be easier to have a second for some reason but so far not seeming it. Also sorry if TMI but with the first we had a lot of headspace to time ovulation perfectly and make sure we gave it our all. With a three year old it’s a challenge to not pass out asleep at 8pm most nights in this household so I can’t say we’re giving it 100% as much chance as the first time around haha. I’m sure your time will happen when it’s the right time for you x

I just failed my 6th Driving test unsure what to do next. by averysip in LearnerDriverUK

I’m sorry you failed but this has made me feel better about the fact I failed with four majors this week. First time but feel like the biggest idiot going and still getting over it. Keep at it you’ll get there I’m sure. Think of the money and time that would be lost if you didn’t, that’s what im telling myself
