First time mums - Might be too early to say, but is anyone "one and done"

I know our babies are only 5/6 months but just wondering if anyone is definitely one and done? This is definitely a lot harder than I thought it would be, I love my LO so much and I know it's so worth it but like could I see me doing this all again? I dunno 😅 also other circumstances come into play with a second…

How quick

Hi guys, just been told I have an under active thyroid so I’m 50mg of levothyroxine, how quickly can I get pregnant since being on this? I already have a baby boy. So been ttc for 7 months but feeling hopeful now I’m on this? But how long did it take you all to conceive once being on this?

When to BD?

Happy February All. This will be cycle 7 of TTC baby no2. Can anyone advise which days to BD? I’ve read it’s not good to do it daily due to sperm quality? OPK is very low today so and blank circle on CB test. Is it worth starting tomorrow so 2nd, 5th & 6th maybe?

Trying for second baby?

Is anyone else thinking about trying for a second baby? We had issues conceiving the first time so I don’t want to wait until the “perfect time” because life doesn’t work that simply! I loved being pregnant and absolutely love being a mum, so can’t wait to do it again to be honest.

TWW

Oh lord, here I go again. 5dpo and I’m hoping I can hold out for another week until I start testing. This two week wait every month is killing me. Just wanted to rally up the troops, cause I know I’m not alone in this. Let’s talk about how much we’re driving ourselves crazy with ifs ands or buts. Baby dust to us a...

Has anyone ever used this product?

TTC

Hi everyone, I don’t know if I’m using the correct term of ttc or if posting in the best group for this. I know some people have a long journey of ttc and I don’t want to be insensitive.

Feeling deflated

This ttc business is hard work, I feel down, deflated and like it’s consuming my life. Another negative today and it’s just such a slow process. Another two weeks to ovulation and then another 2 weeks to find out it’s not worked again. I literally can’t think of anything else
