I’m 27 weeks and mines came with a warm welcome literally…. I feel like I’m on FIRE sometimes what are some symptoms my fellow 3T mamas are having

I’m constantly worrying about getting severe preeclampsia. I can only think of the worse. I haven’t yet been diagnosed with it, however I’m at higher risk of developing. They prescribed me 150mg of aspirin to take every day which I have been but the worse thoughts are still playing in my head. First baby so extremel...

Hi all, I had an appointment last week Wednesday where my fundal height was measured at 29cm and then today (8 days later) at 33cm(!). Both times it was done at the GP so not midwife/specialists. When I expressed worry about such a jump she said it wasn’t anything to worry about but it is starting to freak me out. ...

I have my results but I don’t know if I passed or not

For first time moms or previously FTMs that have had their little ones with no intervention did you go over your due date? Everyone keeps saying because this is my first I’ll be over due, I’m over being pregnant and just want to meet her already. My due date is 2 weeks away and apart from the odd braxton hick I have...

Hello, I am day 3 on trying to get colostrum. For those who weren’t blessed with copious amounts, how many days did it take for you to reach like 0.4-0.5 at one go?

Is anyone having one

Can you see the nub on this scan

Would you count this as August's period or September's?

This is my second baby after 9 years, and therefore feel almost like a first time mom. I found out at 6 weeks pregnant, set up an appt and all they did was the urine test (did not confirm results) and a blood test of hcg 124k. I have another appt next week for an ultrasound, but this past week has been killing me bo...

I keep accidentally bending over and I’m worried I’m harming my baby- it’s not painful for me but I’m worried I’m like hurting them. I’m 22 weeks

I am having problems with my Nuby. Brand new and just out the box. Did exactly what the instructions told me to do but it’s boiling hot to touch when I shake it. I have to hold the lid and it doesn’t ever change colour. It’s always green. But the water is fresh from the kettle and just boiled. I have reset it - l...

Hey lovelies! I’ve just been told by the doctor that I have a UTI. I’ve had it for a week now and they’ve only just told me. The doctor prescribed me with Nitrofurantoin but it states online it shouldn’t be taken in the 3rd trimester. I know UTI’s can start early labour… I’m just abit worried now! If anyone has h...

Hi beautiful ladies. Wondering if you can predict the gender using Nub theory? It personally confuses me. Hope everyone is blessed ✨ I was 12 weeks in the scan ❤️

Hi! Is anyone planning on doing / has anyone done an early gender reveal blood test? I don’t think I can wait until 20 weeks to find out 😂 I’ve seen they’re 99.9% accurate but still slightly sceptical and wondered if anyone had any experiences!

I have my glucose test next week and I’m not to sure what to expect what was everyone’s experience? I heard you can feel sick and dizzy during the 2 hour wait ?

Girls, when did you start buying everything? Like moses baskets, beds, bottles etc… My mum said 32-35 weeks but that feels so late! When did you guys start buying stuff?

Bang on 12 weeks, just curious!

I’ve just looked at my pregnancy notes online from my booking apt. and seeing high risk has made me nervous

I’ve heard both ways. So if you have been very low on blood pressure during pregnancy and now it’s higher than normal but not “bad” high just higher than normal? Does it mean it could be preeclampsia if it’s higher than normal ?
