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...

Does anyone know what dates do in pregnancy? I know you’re supposed to have around 6 a day from 36 weeks, but does anyone know what they are supposed to do? Can I start eating them now at 35 weeks?

Is anyone experiencing alot of pressure in there bottom? 37 weeks

Any first time mums who went into labour early 36/37 weeks - what did you feel the 2-3 weeks leading up to it? Anything specially stand out?

This week been testing blood sugars to see if I may have GD as babys tummy is on bigger side, these are my results so far I think they all in normal range but I'm just basing that off Google cause was only told when n how to test so been going in blind pretty much😅

Not finding out… just for fun! I don’t think there is a nub showing but skull theory? Thanks so much for any informed guesses!

Feeling very anxious due to having fluid on baby’s neck and having a high results coming back for my first blood test. I have now had a NIPT test done and waiting on the results in 7 days. It’s consuming me! Just looking for some similar mums out there in the same situation ❤️

I’ve just gone for my first lot of bloods and my glucose drink - they sent me home saying I can wait there instead. But I’ve just been sick from it and have only been able to keep it down for an hour. What do I do??

I have a little boy already and have suffered HG in both pregnancies so I'm really hoping this little one is a girl. Anyone familiar with the nub theory or skull theory. I'm so curious

I’m currently pregnant with my third (I have a 6 yo girl and 3yo boy) and I am scarrrred! I don’t know why I am so nervous for the changes in my body, and with my mental state. We have a mini van, a spare room and we both wanted a third, but the moment the test came up positive OMG I was nervous. How is it going fro...

28 weeks with my second and I’m not sure why but I didn’t realize how much harder subsequent pregnancies would be. My first pregnancy was not bad thank goodness. I had pretty mild issues like heartburn and round ligament pain but WOW this time I feel like I’m falling apart every single time I move or breathe. I’ve b...

Did any mama do sneak peek? I did mine at 6 weeks 2 days & got boy! Is the test 99.9 percent accurate like it says it is? Or have any mamas have diff experiences?

So I’m 37+2 and being induced on Friday. I’ve had multiple episodes of reduced movements and I was over this afternoon as my girl just wasn’t moving. She moved when I was in the hospital, they were happy and I felt better. I’ve been home since half 3 and her movements haven’t been the same as her normal. I dunno if ...

I am now 4 months postpartum. This is my first baby, i had her with an epidural. Before my pregnancy id get migraines once or so a week. The entire time i was pregnant I didn't have one migraine. Like i said. Im now 4 months postpartum, and i have a migraine just about every single day to the point any noise or ligh...

I am normally such a planner, prepping so far in advance for things and filled with anxiety, but baby is on the way in Jan and I’m more chilled than I’ve ever been in my life, to the point I haven’t really bought much and keep thinking I’ll get it all in December! Am I delulu?? Or is this normal?

I’ve recently been diagnosed with GD. Today is only my second day testing at home. I was reading through some posts on here and when I see people refer to their levels they’re saying numbers like 10 and 12. I’m just confused as my readings are like in 95-150 range. The directions were kinda confusing and I’ve yet to...

So can somebody explain this more please as it’s all messing with my head?! Is gestational age or gestational age based on ultrasound CRL starting from your lmp or when you conceived? So how many weeks pregnant you are altogether, when does that start from? It’s all so confusing.

First-time boy-mom here and I’m currently 36 weeks. I don’t know if baby is going to wait much longer, he is definitely acting like he wants out. So my question to you mommies is how many weeks were you when your baby came (naturally) full works water break, labor, contractions or however it goes?
