Anyone knows what are this results about? I was at the hospital but they didn’t mentioned anything about this results and when I search on google it looks like it could be something with the liver.

Got my peak on the 2nd September 11.30am. Had sex on the 1st at 6.30pm.

Guys, I’m so worried! I just had my 20 Week scan and have been told that I have a 1 in 5 chance of developing preeclampsia which puts me at high risk. It’s one of the worst conditions you can have while pregnant as it could mean serious health concerns for baby and mum! Any advice to calm down my nerves, or past exp...

Random one. At almost every medical/antenatal/midwife appt I’m asked “is this your first pregnancy?” At my booking appt I explained that I have been pregnant twice before, once in my early twenties and once 3.5 years ago and both ended in miscarriage at 8 and 7 weeks respectively. So when I’m asked this question I...

I’ve been in and out of the hospital 7 times in the past 7 weeks for high blood pressure. Every time my midwife or I has checked it has been high for weeks. Also had a couple of occasions where there has been protein in my urine but on those occasions my blood pressure was normal. Every time I go into the hospital m...

Hey, I had my baby 21st August via emergency c-section, the baby blues hit me hard the last two weeks. Does anyone feel the same ? It would be nice to hear from some mamas who are in the same boat.

Is anyone else high risk?? I’m expecting a little girl October 16th and we are high risk for a few different things, including cystic fibrosis, short cervix, preterm delivery, and preeclampsia. Is anyone else in the same boat?

So so strange, my entire pregnancy every time I have an appointment my blood pressure is phenomenal, and when I check it at home it’s always a bit elevated. Nothing ever TOO crazy, but I just had one of 126/87. Is this the universe toying with my anxiety or do I trust the readings at my appointments over these?!

How long did it take for you to get your results from the glucose tolerance test? I had mine this morning and they didn’t actually say!

I had my 8w2d scan and baby showed a strong heartbeat and great growth and on track. However, I am going to be flying to Newfoundland on Saturday and I have a HUGE fear of flying. Major anxiety, heart races, panic, etc. Will this harm my baby? I do have Ativan that I’ve asked if safe to take (which it is in small ...

So of course us pregnant mamas can't see to be at our best groomed in the Downstairs department, is anyone else nervous about going in to have their babies not shaved???? I'm gunna use a mirror and do the best I can, but any tips would be greatly appreciated🙏🤣🌳

Im 28 weeks(TODAY) and my baby will be coming earlier the late November . If you use or are planning on using an air purifier when did you start running yours?

I’m only 7 weeks and I’m starting a new job. When should I tell them? I also have upcoming appointments in September and October. Advice pleaseeeeee

Got my GD test tomorrow, does anyone know what to expect? My appointment card says it will be a 2 hour appointment, what the hell goes on in two hours😅 also does anyone have GD and know what it entails

I’m 16+1 and had only the slightest bit of nausea in my first trimester, it was the only real symptom that I had! Since 15 weeks I’ve now been getting really sick and so tired!! Has anyone else experienced this? I feel like it’s the wrong way round😂

35+3 and honestly all I think about is baby and when she will come and what to do still. It’s frustrating sometimes 🙃

My first is almost 10 months and I’ve just become pregnant with my second. I’ve seen my midwife for the first time today and she was talking about how my womb hasn’t had time to heal and so they may be complications - I already knew it would be a higher risk than my first. A couple people who don’t have children hav...

Where should baby's head be by 28 weeks

Hi all. I have just had my 4th FET failure and think it's time I look into further testing. I'm currently.funding by NHS and they have done all the test they can, which isn't many. What other tests have people had? I know of PGTa, wondered if there are tests to see the reason my uterus hates embryos. I also have a c...

I am 2 weeks in and feel like I’m struggling everyday still. When does it start to get easier? After 1 month? 3 months??? Thanks! Things are going well, but so intense having a newborn baby and the feeding/not sleeping for weeks on end now
