Hi mamas! I am embarking on a new career path one year postpartum. But before i pay to get certified I wanted to know the general consensus of doulas in the UK as I’m originally not from here. Is it a service that people look to?
Does anyone work as a midwife or as clerical for midwives? I am pregnant after miscarriage without a period. I am 6 weeks, I rang the community midwives and was told to wait two months before ringing to register my pregnancy. It’s in the rules she said. I’d just like to know if this a known thing?
Got my first diabetes appointment tomorrow don't know what there going to do like do I need to keep eating as normal? I know when I spoke to the diabetes midwife last week she said ill be referred to a dietician after I've had baby but I honestly don't know what will happen at my appointment
Hi all, Just had a really horrible experience with a junior doctor in maternity making me feel stupid for attending due to reduced movements. I’m consultant led due to a few risk factors and have a growth scan coming up in a few days at 28 weeks. This doctor pointed out she is covering the same clinic I’m due to at...
It's nice to share good things too so here it goes. Just had my first appointment with the midwife today and was quite scared about BMI as it's much higher than previous pregnancy but the midwife was so sweet and reassuring. She said not to worry about and also confirmed I shouldn't have an issue to go to the birt...
Has anybody claimed single person benifet with a young baby then got pregnant again? What will the UC say? I feel so stupid :(

Anyone who has been on UC… have you had to go to a “further evidence appointment” when changing your claim and adding another child? It just says to bring birth certificate etc. what do they ask at the appointment? What am I to expect? Normally I do all this stuff in the journal so thought it was odd?
I’ve done a sneak peak but I’m now stressed it’s wrong 🤦🏼♀️ can find out in 2 weeks any thoughts 🙏
Anyone done acupuncture throughout pregnancy? I was doing it before (mainly for eczema on my hands which has nearly now gone since being pregnant) I’m a little nervous going with it still being the first trimester but from what I’ve read online it doesn’t cause any harm. Just wondering if anyone else has done it whi...
Diet and exercise have worked well for me until recently - I worry they will ask me to do insulin injections my next appointment.

I am 14 weeks pregnant. And I’ve been tested with higher sugar levels and the doctor said it is Gestational diabetes but might be a type 2 as well. Anyone with the same here ?
