Not pregnancy related, sorry. Just after some recommendations for decent bedding!

For my own bed, king size. Looking for a nice cotton sheet, that fits and doesn't cost the earth! So far I've found Matalan have changed their bedding to a weird, silky material which is too slippy to sleep in. Asda material is fine but doesn't last long, we've only had our sheets a couple of months and are alread...

Is anyone else planning to take their pregnancy pillow to the hospital?

Pregnancy Pillows

Hi guys! I’m looking for a good pregnancy pillow, does anyone have any recommendations? I can’t seem to find any stores near me that sell them and I’m skeptical to buy online incase it’s not as comfy as I’d want it to be. (Bad at returning items I get lazy 😂😩) thanks in advance for the help! 😇

How much glucose 1 vs 3 hour

My testing place had me drink 100mg glucose for both the 1 hour and 3 hour tests. But I’m reading online that some places do less sugar for the 1 hour tests. What is your experience? Same amount of glucose each time or less for the 1 hour?

Babybub pillow - recommend?

Has anyone tried the Babybub pillow or another brand with the same design. These ads are super compelling but I’m hesitant to spend $50 since this is my last pregnancy (even though they do have free returns for 90 days after trying it out). If you’ve used one, let me know if you think it helps you sleep more comfort...
