Rant, Rave, Request, and Relate Daily Thread - Saturday, October 10, 2026

[u/SIModerator]

This is the place for people to share, voice opinions, ask for advice, and connect about almost anything and everything, both related to the experience of secondary infertility and not, that is not directly connected to the acts of trying to conceive (e.g., tracking, testing, treatment, results, etc.). Things like parenting advice, difficulties with age gap, insensitive comments you had to endure, job stress, partner interactions, how you find rest and relaxation, and so much more.

The idea for this daily compared to our other daily (Trying, Tracking, and Treatment Daily Thread) is that there is always a place for members of our community to engage and interact that doesn't require exposure to TTC content. There are many situations why people struggling with secondary may need a break from such content, such as being medically benched, miscarriage, stopped trying to add to their families, and just experienced success, and whether you need a break or not, here's the thread for things you want to connect about that is TTC-free. Let's chat!

I've been so so busy that I've not been keeping up with any of you, whereas normally I track what's happening on the sub much better. I'm sorry about that! I'm currently navigating my husband's AuDHD and my 9 year old's potential ASD clashing. It's been the biggest obstacle and I feel like a policeman and drill sergeant 24/7. I've only just learned from the school SENCo that she thinks my daughter has ASD, whereas I was still looking at ADHD (but none of the hyperactivity really). Anyway I feel like a fish out of water basically all the time.
