Hi ladies! I m having bad headaches almost everyday. Is advil ok to take? I checked my blood pressure looks normal. Currently 15 weeks.
Guys, when I tell you, you know your body better than anyone trust me! I had continuous infection on my wound for weeks, no one would listen. I went on 4 different antibiotics for a week at a time. At one point it looked okay, then it got worse again. I finally insisted that they put me on a drip for intravenous ant...
I can’t tell if I’m having contractions or is my stomach just upset 😭 but I’ve been cramping like this all day long !!! has anyone experienced this before labor ???
I am 33 weeks and I go to ob for follow up every two weeks. My appointments are super short, basically 2 mins, just heartbeat and short ultrasound. Is it the same for you? It is little bit annoying to me, it is my first pregnancy and I would like my doctor to talk to me more about it. ☹️
33+4 weeks: drinking water like I’m crossing the Sahara, but peeing like I’ve got a bladder the size of a walnut! Hydrated and running to the bathroom is my whole personality now.
Hi! Has anyone else had their c-section wound reopen? Mine has opened at least 2.5cm in the past 2 weeks and I’m currently 9 weeks pp. It’s constantly leaking like a yellow-ish liquid. GP prescribed anti-biotics and I’m changing the dressing daily. Just been referred to tissue specialists and awaiting an appointmen...
Is there a time limit on when you can ask for an elective c-section? Like before a certain week of pregnancy?
Feeling a bit down as I was certain I would deliver this baby 2/3 weeks ago when I started getting Brixton hicks. I haven’t lost any mucus plus or had waters break, just extreme pressure of him pushing down on rectum and cervix. He hasn’t fully dropped but he’s low.. I have been offered the option to have an electiv...
Does anyone know where i can a birthday cake around Manchester. Thank you x
Oh my god, currently experiencing the worst acid reflux ever. It has gotten worst over the past 2 weeks. Any help or is anyone else experiencing the same thing? 😩

When did you move your baby from the bassinet carry cot to front facing? I have an eager baby at 12 weeks old
Hi all! Just looking for a bit of advice or even some reassurance from those who’ve been in the same position before. We are expecting a baby boy November 6th and are just about at 38 weeks. We found out fairly early on that he was breech and he has stayed breech (have had multiple ultrasounds to confirm). We review...
Just to say . I don’t care one jot what colour skin my baby has but just wondered if anyone else has a mixed race baby who looks white ? My baby is 7 months old and has been extremely fair ever since he was born . He is 1/4 Black Jamaican and 3/4 White English but he is whiter in complexion than some of my white fri...
I wanted to share my story for hope. My first baby was born 19 months ago at 40w4d. My water broke before contractions so I had to be induced. My cervix was barely at a 1. It took 40 hours and loads of meds to get me to an 8 before needing C-section. I as many of you also struggled with feeling worthy, trauma, trust...
I am 20 weeks pregnant and we are doing C-section too because I have already had a C-section surgery so I guess doc said it’s the safest way… I really wanted to have a baby natural for the experience any positive thoughts? Will I still get to go in labor?
Has anyone else had to take sick days due to feeling horrendous? I’ve just had my fourth day off today (not in a row) since finding out I’m pregnant (I’m 11+1) and also not sure if I can even manage to go tomorrow. It’s making me feel so anxious and guilty calling in sick but I can’t do my job properly when I feel l...
