I’m feeling terrible about myself as I haven’t been eating the best during this pregnancy. I have a 2 year old and I work and I just have no time to think about myself 😅 I guess I’m just looking for a bit of reassurance 😭
So my step daughter is 10 and ya I need some advice please. Her mom decided that because her “stomach hurt and she had headaches” that her period was going to start soon and of course it had to be a time when we would have her. The mom has told my husband that the doctor thinks the girl will start her period some ti...
Hi guys Just wondering if anyone else has had this result with their urine test at a midwife appointment ? I just met my midwife at 22 weeks and she dipped my urine and it contained small amounts of blood and protein. She is sending it away to test for a urine infection. It’s got me a bit worried 😖 anyone else had…
Anyone else lost weight during the first trimester? Only talking a few lbs but I’ve had no sickness. However I’ve gone off so much food, nothing tastes good so I guess that could be why
Hey! So I’ve got my glucose test tomorrow 8:45. However I’ve not been told anything 🙃 Can’t get through to the midwife either. I’m wondering if anyone can tell me… 1. When do I need to start fasting? 2. Can I still drink water? Thanks in advance 🥰
Is this my pregnancy hormones?!! I have a two year old who attends childcare. Were due our c section soon and absolutely terrified she’s going to bring home some bugs before hand that are going to make me and my husband unwell. Does anyone have any advice, it’s keeping me up at night 😂
So I've finally had my telephone appointment with the doctor regarding my elective caesarean. It was a very positive conversation and made me feel like I'd made the right choice. She was lovely! I'm booked in for this Friday (due date today). Mine is a grade 3, which means I'm sort of in between emergencies and ele...
to try to overcome my anxiety of tearing/manage expectations, I wondered if anyone could share their experience of labour and tearing / episiotomy and how it was for you?
I’ve been so positive this pregnancy. My last ended in a loss and I was stressed so much from the moment I found out. This time I figured why stress, it’s not going to change the outcome So I’ve been quite positive but this morning I’ve woke up with bad anxiety thinking the worst. Does anyone else go through these...
I’m so worried about the first few weeks after the baby will come, my husband is the only support I got and we’re first time parents so no previous experience. I started to prepare some freezer meals and stock up in grocery but don’t know what should i do more to make this time better for all of us
Are there any mommas who can share what this was like for them? My girl is about to turn 6 weeks and I have never felt like more of a failure than I do as a mother. Shes so fussy, fights her sleep… I am changing her formula to nutrimiagen because maybe it’s silent reflux. But I feel so defeated because I’m overwhelm...
Feel like I’m doing everything wrong, I had my 2 week old laying on chest last night and went to sit up, forgot to support his head and his head flipped back and forth and now I’m scared of shaken baby syndrome, he’s been especially fussy today and I’m not sure if it’s related
I'm currently 9w3d & have my first ob appointment on Nov 4th when I'm 11 weeks. Did anyone get the NIPT test at 11 weeks?? & if you did , did you choose to find out or wait? I'm thinking about doing the NIPT but waiting until after birth to know the gender, but then again I may get too impatient and decide to look a...
Hello everyone! I just found out I failed my 3 hr glucose test today and have been officially diagnosed by my OB. I have been crying on and off about it all day 😭😭😭 but I’m grateful to not be alone in this and I hope learn a lot and find solace in this group
Is this normal As a first time mum to be I am always anxious about my baby and if it’s growing and doing well I often get really worried and feel as if I am going to have a miscarriage and get really anxious and my head starts to assume the worst despite only having a scan and baby was happy and healthy a couple o...
I had a horrible time with nausea, vomiting and fatigue during first trimester. It’s now back at 34 weeks. I shouldn’t worry much right? 🤒.
I’m having my first period since giving birth and it’s super heavy and going on 10 days now. They only used to be 4/5 days long. When should I worry?
I had my glucose test today and the results came back with my sugar at 57. Has anyone else dealt with having low blood sugar? I felt absolutely horrible for hours after the test. Any advice is welcome.
Any other mom has like extreme anxiety over RSV.. I keep freaking out because alot of signs are common baby actions or is it just me…😅😅
Well after being a few days late on my period, I took a test and looks like I am pregnant with baby #2!! (almost 8 months postpartum) I have so many feelings. On one hand I’m happy and feel so blessed, and on the other I’m SO nervous, apprehensive, and shocked etc. I’m nervous about how friends and family will reac...
