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...
I must drink almost 3 litres of water or juice a day and nothing seems to curb my thirst. Anyone else experiencing this or have any suggestions ?
I’m 23 weeks and usually everyday I feel some sort of movement but today havnt felt anything should I be worried or is this normal?
After a quick two hour labour and delivery with my first my midwife has suggested I think about a home birth for this baby. Anyone who has had a home birth please share experiences please. Not looking for negative views on home birth unless from personal experience as all I've heard so far "I wouldn't do that". Thanks!
Hello! Does anyone have a hospital bag essentials list they would be willing to share? Thank you ☺️
Does this mean I need to send just the child’s birth certificate or the child’s and the parents birth certificates?
5cm dilated getting water broken soon.So Proud of myself I got through all my cervical checks.I am ready for My baby.
I am 31 weeks pregnant and I don’t feel my baby move a lot. There’s other people who experience not being able to go to sleep because of how much their baby moves and I don’t experience that at all? I’ll feel him sometimes in the morning if I’m laying on my side or if I push down on my stomach enough he’ll kick back...
Anyone’s babies completely rolling over from back to front and front to back now ! My baby just did it 🥺I’m so proud of him
Anyone else feeling like they are being slowly tortured at night? As soon as I lay down the braxton hicks and cramping start. Baby is really active too and I literally feel battered. This my 4th so I know it's all normal and gearing up from the big day but last night I was awake from 12-4am and it's all now kicking ...
Car names for a boy? We have a Chevy. Zephyr is on the list, but need more ideas. Middle names welcome too! ❤️
Comment how long after you started experiencing this thay you went into labor.
What are we all getting for our little ones first birthday? We've got a trike & that's it 🙈
I’m nearly 18 weeks with my first and have been experiencing some very sharp pain in my cervix and bottom. Last a couple of seconds and can’t move during these…. Any ideas what could cause this
Is anyone experiencing crazy backaches out of a sudden? If so, is there anything that helps? I plan on resuming some stretches, but the ache in my lower back is starting to impact my walk/movement, when I sit for a while it hurts to move my leg again- I feel it straight in my back when I do move my leg to attempt to...
Our 3yo girl has named her yet to be born baby sister Lily 😂 she has just decided thats her name and has been telling everyone that fact haha. Unsure if we will go with it, mainly as we’re struggling with a longer name to shorten to Lily. I like unisex names for girls and Lily is very girly! Any help?
