Positive or Negative?

Done this test this morning. I seen the line pretty much straight away. Pictures taken in the time frame. There is colour but doesn’t look like it in the photo. I’m so paranoid because I have had a lot of false faint positives but this one has had the most colour. I would be around 3 weeks so I’m unsure what to think.

CoQ10/Fertility Supplement Results???

I'm starting CoQ10 for my 2nd retrieval, and I'm hoping it improves our outcome. Thank...

Crazy

Is anyone else as crazy as me to have another baby once my second turns 1. For some backstory I have a 21 month old and an almost 6 month old. Both boys hubby and I really want a girl. And my current mentality is to just get it done now instead of waiting 2-5 years and starting all over with the sleepless nights etc...
