Hi, I’m having a glucose tolerance test this week - how have people felt afterwards? My midwife has said I might feel rotten afterwards
I am having my glucose intolerance test today .. guys what the feeling of having that test and hope not as painfully or will react on me or my baby
Has anyone done the test this early? I want to have it done before we announce it… assuming all continues to go well.
I took Kaopeptate which is just like Pepto but different flavors, I forgot to google weather it was safe for pregnancy and I found out it is not recommended. I only took 1 dose but of course I'm panicking that I messed up. All because of my damn pregnancy brain...
Boy or girl ?
I started considering having a second baby after somehow putting behind my traumatic birth experience due to my anterior placenta previa. I bleed through a majority of my pregnancy and swore I wouldn’t do it again but I’m starting to consider maybe having another. I was wondering if anyone had another baby after the...
Heard this is only tested for in certain NHS hospitals and private - is this true?
So I posted on here I believe last week about baby girl stomach measuring small. And I found out that my placenta isn’t producing enough nutrients for her like it’s supposed to. I did have the gastric sleeve last July so I don’t know if that’s the cause of it... Always struggled with fertility so I didn’t think I wo...
Hi, has anyone been on antibiotics during pregnancy and how did you/ unborn baby get on with them? I’m 33 weeks and for the last two weeks haven’t been able to hear out my left ear due to ringing and inflammation in my ear. Doctors say it’s from a viral or bacterial infection and two different types of ear drop a...
I just got my NIPT results in today which I thought I was not gonna get back until Sept 30th! I'm super excited and found out we are having a little boy! Also no chromosome abnormalities! Though my other test hasn't come in yet. This was done at 10 weeks and they said it's like 94% accurate at that time! So I think ...
So this is my third pregnancy but my only one where I am carrying twins! I have never felt so drained in all my life I am nearly 6 weeks and honestly I don’t know how I am gonna cope surviving the first trimester! Has anyone got any tips on how to get through this?
I know that braxton hicks are expected in the 3rd trimester, but I’m 32w & for the past week & a half I’ve been getting them daily at least 5 times a day without fail.. not so much painful just uncomfortable as my stomach tenses up and gets really firm. Anyone else experiencing this?x
I'm almost 39 weeks. FTM. Never done this before... And there's no "plan". Like I feel like I'm just waiting for nature to take it's course. Is this normal? I've worked in a medical setting before which I appreciate is very different to having a baby as that's so natural. But a medical setting there's always a plan...
Today for the first time I’m away from my baby girl to go to a dental appointment.. she stayed with her daddy and I know she’s in good hands and it’ll only be for an hour or two but I can’t help it I just feel SO anxious that I’m almost sick 😭 is this normal? She is nearly 9 months. I was even about to cancel the…
I am always anxious about the baby’s movement. I already went twice last month and I always want my baby checked. How do you handle this? Yesterday my baby was super active. Today I can’t feel her at all and I woke up on my back so I really don’t know whether I should head to triage or not.
Hey. This is my first time being pregnant and I am 6weeks + 2. How do you manage your excitement ? I want to start finding out everything about being a mum, looking at cute baby things online (not buying) and just feeling positive about it all. But my worry is obviously it is early days and I know it doesn’t always ...
Second baby first trimester. I cannot drink any water whatsoever. I can only drink fizzy drinks with ice and eat pizza or Chinese. I vomit when I don’t eat but will continue to eat. My first trimester was the complete opposite. I couldn’t keep anything down anyone feeling like this? Im wondering if this baby is a di...
We had a few lh tests lying around and I thought I’d take one just for fun, I’m 9weeks 1 day and this is the lh test not fully developed yet
