Hi! So I’m having my first very very soon ❤️ I plan to circumcise and I’m worried about the care that goes into it. How hard is it for baby boy to heal and what goes into diaper changing? Also, what do they mean you need to tuck their boy parts after you change a diaper?

Anyone getting like brown spotting 4/5 weeks pregnant? I’ve noticed it when wiping the past day or two. TIA

2 weeks ago (6+3)I had an early scan due to a little spotting. There was a sac and yolk all happily implanted in the right place, but no fetel pole. Tomorrow is my follow up and I can’t help but think the worst. I feel like these are my last few hours of being able to consider myself pregnant, and it’s getting me s...

I’m currently 8 weeks and 4 days, is anyone else just waiting for their bump to show!! I am so anxious for my bump it’s making me nervous 😬

We both really like the name Lorenzo. Would this seem really strange on a boy with ZERO Italian heritage? Highly likely to have blonde hair and blue eyes too

Hello, I’ve been peeing a lot the last 24 hours. No loss of mucus plug or waters breaking. But keep having really strong period pains… or is this just braxton hicks 38weeks n 2 days

I was wondering if they hurt??? I’m getting them taken out today, and so nervous 😪😭😩🥲

37+1 - vagina is really hurting! Is anyone else the same? I know baby’s head down & it feels like soooo much pressure!

I am at 37w 2d and had my cervix check today and my ob told me the baby is in position and my cervix soft and dilated to 1cm and I had a few contractions yesterday. How much more time do I have before I need to head to the hospital ? How much time does it take to get more dilated ? Please share any thoughts opinio...

I don’t know if time is flying because he’s our second baby or because time truly waits for no one. However, our sweet boy is turning 1 on the 2nd of November and this mama is in shambles. Everyday he’s doing something new and it amazes me.

Did anybody get bad painful heartburn before going into labour?! Is it a sign?😂🤞🏻

Does anyone else gets Cramps or stomach ache if they haven’t peed for a while ?

This will be my second c section and with my first I wasn’t prepared no one in my family knew anything about recovery for a c section so it was painful I also had my son at 20 years old and was completely clueless about recovery and things I needed. I would love advice for what I need to make it easier for me to hav...

Hi, I’m 5 weeks pregnant so contacted the Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells maternity service and have been told in an email that I shouldn’t expect to hear anything until after 8 weeks at least. It’s my first time being pregnant and I’m just not sure if that is what it should be or if I should be able to see someone be...

I haven’t seen a doctor yet but do they go away on there own? And do you feel anything when you have a cyst? On my right lower side, I’ve been feeling a weird very slight pinching feeling for the past couple of months. It’s dull and goes away and comes back every so often but I feel it every day. It doesn’t hurt but...

I know it’s down to skin stretching but has anyone had the top of their belly (or anywhere) literally stinging and sore to touch and managed to sooth it ? The top of my bump feels like I’ve fallen over and grazed it. Any clothing touching it almost hurts 😂
