sad

As everyone knows it’s a long road before you even get to IUI. But finally, in late October, we got the go ahead to start with the process. I was nervous because timing is literally everything and my cycle was scheduled right around thanksgiving. But, the stars aligned! I got my period the...

Just when I thought my 3 year old was beginning to get much easier (I mean, he is during daylight hours), we just had our worst nights sleep for a while. He is low sleep needs, naps only at daycare, and sleeps better on no nap days but last night he woke 3 times, ended up in our bed, kicked...

I’ve just got my period again and have now been trying for 8 months. And while I didn’t expect it to be quick, I wasn’t really expecting it to take this long either. And apparently 8 months is my limit of being able to just brush it off - this is the first time I’ve really cried over my period...

I am 20w5 days and just came from my 20w ultrasound. After taking the pictures, the tech came back and told us she had to do a vaginal ultrasound per Dr order. Done, then after a couple minutes the Dr. came in the room and told us I have complete placenta previa. She told me that it is...

First let me say that I marked this flair "sad" because I currently feel sad about the situation, haha. It's more of a vent, but I welcome advice if anyone relates, so I didn't want to pick that flair. Also, I know this might not be the top parenting sub for this, but this is the only...

Edit: yesterday was the day, I definitely woke up this morning thinking it was the 15th This means it has also been over two years since trying to conceive again, with no positive results. Two years of invasive tests, exploratory surgeries, expensive ovulation kits, fertility doctors...

TW: abortion, mental illness, covid I have a 4yo daughter. My husband had always wanted more, and so did I, ideally 2-3 years apart. I had a difficult birth and PPD/PPA very bad that went untreated due to my inept healthcare providers. It took about two years to feel normal after her birth, and...

My husband and I have been TTC for 8 months. We’ve tired/use preseed, OPKs, track BBT, both take vitamins, no & low drinking, healthy diet, workout regularly, “going on vacation and relaxing”, thinking minimally about TTC, and having positive attitude/manifestation- which lead to more...

Hi all, As titled. I see a lot of posts about OAD by choice, I wonder if there are any parents here like me that are one and done but not by choice? My son has special needs. Kids w his condition face a possibility of lifelong disability and my husband and I only have the means to support one...

I looked it up in the sub and noones posted about it before but I figured with how terrible this season has been for R.S.V I can't be the only one. It's awful. She's had it for almost 2 month now and it's not getting any better. I give her two diffrent types of inhalers ever day. I have to take...

Hey all. I’m one and done because of infertility — I barely got my little girl here. A year of trying naturally, a couple rounds of Clomid, two rounds of IVF: one no mature eggs and a mean doc who told me I’d never conceive and the second with seven eggs, two embryos and one precious girl. She’s...

My son is 19 months old, and it’s been so much fun watching him grow. I’m not a baby person, but most of the time I love being with him! I had SEVERE SPD during my pregnancy, to the point that my hips separated more than someone who went through L&D and a vaginal birth (I had a planned C-section...
