Starting end of July/August, and I can't stop thinking about it. We have this big trip coming up before early July (I'm also so excited about that!), so I feel like I'm counting down the days of work left until my holidays and TTC journey!
I feel a bit bad because I love my job, but I just don't feel motivated right now when I have to go to work — I'm just somewhere else mentally. It's fine once I'm actually at work, but the thought of going in feels less motivating than it usually does for me, which I do feel guilty about. I'm trying to focus on the present, but it's getting harder and harder.
Anyone here trying or waiting to try for #3 or more? :)
We have a 5 and a 2 year old already, so aiming for another three year gap. When my youngest was born I was very quickly pretty sure I wanted a third, then early this year sleep regressions hit and I gave away so much stuff and told everyone we were totally definitely done at 2. Whoops 🙃
It's also frustrating that half of the Instagram algorithm promotes three kids, and the other half tells you that you absolutely should never even consider a third.
Anyways, would love to hear from others trying for their third, fourth, etc!
Hi everyone!
As I run out of products in general, I'm trying to be a bit more mindful about what is in the product that I purchase and what I am purchasing. I have severe eczema so I need to make sure I still moisturize daily. My dermatologist recommended products like CeraVe and Cetaphil (which I already use) but I wanted to see if any of you have come across any moisturizers/skin care products that you like.
I'm also open to any other products or things that you've changed in general. I've been reading books like What to Expect Before You're Expecting and It Starts With The Egg so I'm just trying to crowd source any recommendations or products you all may have tried/switched to and liked.
Thank you in advance!

This is our 2nd cycle TTC, but the 1st one tracking my LH levels and BBT. Ovulation day was May 11th… anyone else with the same-ish timeline?

My husband and I have been together 11 years (we’re 1996 & 1997) babies — I want the option to have 3 kids safely and have healthy pregnancies.
We’re going to Greece in August and planned to start trying then … however we bought a house last September in Toronto and since this purchase accumulate 30k in cc debt with adjustment to new home ownership
I really had my heart on trying to start in Greece - but with having to save for mat leave and the credit cards — should we wait?
Or is this something we can figure out while building our family —- is anyone else trying to conceive while in credit card debt?
5/8 positive faint
5/9 positive faint
5/10 digital positive
5/12 brown spotting
5/13 brown + bright red bleeding / clot or tissue like substance passed maybe the size of half my index finger also tested blood and hCG level was 32 at about 4w4d
5/14 brown spotting 2 lines of index finger worth not enough to fill a pad
Anyone have something like this happen to them? I’m going to second hCG bloodwork tomorrow 😅
Update: 5/15 7am negative test still going for bloodwork around 10am

LMP - 9th April
28[F]
No periods till today(13th May)
If pregnancy symptoms are absent and pregnancy test is negative is it always confirmed that I am not pregnant at this point.
Should I consider that this cycle I did not conceive.
My periods were regular from almost January till April and this time it has become somewhat irregular. I tried using ovulation trackers but it added more stress to the process so had to stop it.
History -Iam Trying to conceive actively since December.
My thyroid is normal, my complete blood count is normal , no PCOS , I have a subserosal fibroid of 1cm.
Activity- I walk for 1 hour minimum everyday (sometimes more) . My BMI is 26.
My partner is pre-diabetic and rest of the things are normal.

Hello! I’m hoping somebody may be able to help me here.
My average cycle length is 26 days. I got a positive OPK on Friday and tested daily from Saturday which lightened each day. Fast forward to today (Tuesday) and the 2nd line is almost non-existent.
I’ve been tracking my BBT and have not seen a surge, despite my positive OPK being 4 days ago. I know ovulation can be up to 36 hours after the positive OPK, but surely that would not explain the lighter OPK tests. This is my 3rd cycle TTC and I’m concerned that this may be a cycle with no ovulation :( any help would be greatly appreciated!
I’m going on 6 months with no ovulation. Had 2 normal cycles after stopping hbc and then everything stalled. I feel lost. My OB says she is not concerned and wants me to wait it out. I had one induced period with provera. I wish I would have gotten off of birth control sooner.
Anyone else having issues with not ovulating after hbc?
Trying for 6 months
First time posting on Reddit, kind of a long post, please bare with me. My husband and I have been trying for 6 months now. We started on December 2025 and January 2026 the tests came back all positive and thought how blessed we were. 3 weeks after finding out I was pregnant I started spotting and ended up being and ectopic pregnancy. Went to the ER and got Methotrexate (just one dose). February got my period, but had to wait that cycle because of the MTX. March we resumed TTC and haven’t gotten pregnant yet. Everyone I open to about our ectopic and TTC tells me that it will happen when I stop thinking about it, or stop trying, but how do I stop myself from thinking about how much we desire to start our family. Since January, 5 women around me have gotten pregnant on their first or second try and even though I am happy for them, I feel something on my stomach, like grief for me.
Anyways, it’s a lot but I want to ask, has anyone gotten pregnant while really wanting to start a family? Or do I need to forget about it so I can get pregnant?
I’m mentally exhausted and need some words of wisdom in this situation, thank you!!
