waiting for baby

Why do I get nervous making my own posts lol So to first give context, I moved around a lot growing up. I didn’t attend the same school for longer than a year until I got into high school, so my whole life was just a blur of houses that never became homes and people that never became friends...

Hi I'm a researcher interested in Women's experiences with Pelvic Floor Disorder. If you are expecting or a new mother we would love to hear what you think through this anonymous survey. http://vuw.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_0uDddFZpVa8JkaN

(sorry.) I might not be able to drink beer next Canada Day so I'm rippin it HARD this year! I know most of you ladies are in the states but you can still celebrate too! We are BFFs after all. Consider this your July 4th weekend warm up :) Some recommendations to celebrate with your northern...

My partner and I are finally shopping for a house after 8 years of being together (and 7 living together). We've talked about marriage and kids abstractly but I finally told him that I'm at the age (33) where we need to just schedule out when we're going to have kids. He agreed that we could...

I meant to post a comment on this thread the other day, but I was having a hard time thinking of a song. My mom texted me this morning to wish a Happy Valentine's Day to her "first true Valentine." I had a flashback to when I was a kid and she sang "G'night My Angel (Lullaby)" by Billy Joel to...

I'm (29/F) currently on HBC (sprintec) and have been for over 10 years. I've always wanted to be a mom, but my boyfriend (27.5 y.o.) and I of 3.5 years are not in a place in our relationship yet for getting married/having kids. I imagine it'll be a good 3-4 years (if I'm lucky) until we're at...

Hi there! Just recently found y’all and happy that I have! My husband and I have been married 1 year this October. We’ve been together for 6, 6 years of hardcore traveling, (we met when I was 18) and since meeting have hit over 30 countries, most oceans and majority of our continents. Our big...

The amount of comments yesterday was amazing! I hope you all enjoy these as much as I do! Today it's all about the dreaded wait that brought us all here. Why are you waiting? How long have you been waiting? When will you start trying? How does your SO feel about waiting and trying? What are...

So I'm 33 years old, and I've been waiting to try until I graduate in April, and get off all the meds and substances that might hurt a baby when I make one (vaping, prescription ADD meds, Alcohol, etc.) I'll still be under 34 when I graduate and hopefully can come off the substances in a few...

Hi y’all! Okay so, I’ve been doing FAM for 3 years now. I’ve been using the Tempdrop for the past 2 years. I just replaced the battery for the 2nd time, I did it perfectly and it won’t work. Support doesn’t know why. The same thing happened last year, but last year it was still under warranty so...

Well, I guess you could also say it was my brain that did it, and it wasn't on purpose either. Instance #1: I had just gotten out of the shower and was standing in front of the mirror wrapped in a towel combing out my hair. He snuck up behind me, hugged me, and kissed me on the neck, then...

I feel like I've been waiting to try for forever. I've always wanted kids, so over time, my ideas of what exactly constituted "ready" to have kids have changed. I would be really interested to hear how everyone else's "We will start trying when ____" statements have changed! Before I met my SO...

Does anyone ever feel grief about waiting to try? I think sometimes waiting to try can appear as a choice (which sometimes it is and sometimes it isn’t), which causes others to misunderstand the grief associated. Like, there’s so much out there about infertility and grieving that. And there...

Hey WTT! I know there’s been some discussion on what happens at a pre-conception appointment, so I wanted to give an update to mine this morning! My timeline: I’ll finish up my last week of active pills of orthotricyclen HBC this week, and will use barrier methods and track my cycles until we’re...

Hello all! I Posted in a different subreddit and they led me here. I (26 F) didn’t realize how incredibly sad it would make me feel. Im married & we both want kids but are waiting for the right circumstances to do so. We are more than an hr drive from our families and know we will need their...
