Helllp!!!!! 😫😫
Hello!!! Okay so, my gf and I are planning to start our pregnancy journey again and I’m trying my hardest to not feel overwhelmed with all of the things that we’ve been told to do to get pregnant. Our first try went okay considering we weren’t really sure what we were doing lol. I could feel my body going through all of the changes, which was really exciting, however, the stress of moving shortly after didn’t allow for things to work out as we had hoped. This time around, I want to feel a bit more confident in the process from beginning to end so that we can have the best results.I know that different strokes work for different folks, but I was hoping that I could some basic advice and suggestions for our next try.

Anyone had luck getting pregnant after your peak day?
Hey so my wife and I are trying for our second child. I am wondering if anyone’s had luck getting pregnant with a donor when they are not at their peak ovulation? Last time we did it at my peak days and got pregnant the first try. This time we won’t be able to till the day after my peak. Thank you for any advice or tips!

**TRYING TO CONCEIVE***
My wife and I have been married for almost 2 years, we’ve been together for 3 years. I’ve got two previous children from previous relationships. However, my wife and I have been trying to conceive with a private donor for 5-6 months.We’ve used the at home insemination method, where he obviously gives us a sample in a sterile sample cup, and we inseminate it ourselves, has anyone else done this method? What’s the best way to do it? The best products to use, how long did it take to become successful? We really want to add a baby to our family. Please help lead us in the right direction.

Its been a long since i have posted here
Like the title says its been a long time. So heres the short story. 2020 i was pregnant with twins, babies 4&5 for me. The father decided to bale at around 8 months. My friend Jen who is mostly lesbian decided to step in and help me. We started turning this friendship into a relationship, i have always been Bi but never got into a relationship with another girl. But we did, Jen ended up being there for me throught labor and delivery which was difficult as my first twin came out vaginally and my 2nd one decided he wasnt coming down so they did a c seaction. Anyway after the twins were born. I never added there father to there birth certificates, Jen and i looked at them as ours, we moved in together shortly after they were born. And got married a little over a year later. We live together raising the 5 kids, late last year we started to talk about adding to the family and decided that Jen would carry, we found a donor (friend) we did the dead and now we are 6 months along with Twins lol. We are hoping for a natural vaginal birth, with guaidence from a much more twin vaginal birth friendly doctor, we will deliver in a hospital setting but will not have any medical aid unless we request it, or the babies present a problem (ie premature, flip breech/transverse) even if B goes breech dr. Said we should still be ok as long as we listen when the time comes. We searched long and hard to find a doctor we could trust and like. Right now they are sitting head down right in front of each other, so she has a wide torpedo like shape to here lol.

SCH subchronic hemorrhage
Hello I’m 9 weeks and I have been experiencing SCH on and off since week 6. It kinda freaks me out each time the bleeding or spotting occurs! Has anyone else experienced this? Can someone share with me their experience?! Thank you all in advance!

LGBT family
How easy is it for LGBT couples to have a family? It's a hard question to answer as it depends on the country, financial aid, moral support, resources available and law and legislation.There are so many types of treatments in clinics and hospitals, home insemination, known and unknown donors, surrogacy, IUI, IVF, RIVF... It's all about you!We welcomed our daughter Leyana Moore on 28th November 2023. It was our 3rd IUI.What would you like to read about?

Embryo transfer
Anyone on here doing there first round of IVF and have a fresh embryo transfer? I’m looking for community as these are really rough times and thought I’d hop on here and find people who are also going through this. I’m super nervous about my Beta test coming up Thursday since I just got home from the hospital and my pregnancy test was negative but maybe it’s just too soon. Idk but it did break my heart when I heard it was negative. Maybe it’s just too early and there’s still time and hope. I think tying to stay strong but it’s hard.

What does fluttering/quickening feeling like?
So I’ve been feeling some movement … I think in my lower abdomen. But it’s not as described as what I see online (bubbles, gas, tickles, etc). I feel movement for sure but more so like a twinge, slight cramping almost, not painful at all just a different feeling. This is also my first pregnancy. I’m 17 weeks + 3 days along. What would you say it fluttering/quickening feels like?

Higher risk?
Has anyone ever been told they are slightly higher risk because you got pregnant via IUI?? Our OB is sending us to a specialist for our anatomy scan and I was just wondering if this is normal? No other medical issues otherwise

best time to take a pregnancy test
Good Morning ladies I have a couplequestions! I am 19 and this is my second attempt at trying for a baby with Artificial At home insemination! so I did the insemination process on my peak day and my ovulation day and I did it twice both days My question is when would be the best time to take a pregnancy test? I've been looking things up online and some say between 5-8 days DPO is a good time to test some websites say it may not be accurate enough, some say 12-14 days but the inseminations different from actually having sexual intercourse. I am currentlv 3 days DPO today.

Almost there!
I know how it is to be on both sides of having a loss but also coming out with success and excitement. I can’t help but feel some guilt to share my happiness with some of our family as it has been hard for a few of our women to conceive but I am just so excited but also scared of all the what ifs?. I can’t wait to meet our baby boy and I guess we did a great job picking our donor as many say with his 3d ultrasound he already looks like my wife. Time flew by so fast and I know I’m going to miss being pregnant so advice to all the moms and dads to be take as many pictures and videos live in the moment because I’m already regretting not documenting everything over my guilt. 5MORE WEEKS!
