How well are you sleeping? How many Zzs are you catching a night? I swear mine is next to nothing and feel like I'm going to go insane.

Anyone else find themselves dreading the nights and feel like the days go by so quick though you seemingly accomplish nothing? 😩 this feeding all night and no sleep is really taking a toll on me. This is so much harder than I thought it would be 😔

Has anyone been to the GP for medication for nausea/sickness and is it helping? My midwife suggested I go as the nausea is debilitating. I'm only sick probably once a day but the nausea is 24/7 and it's horrendous. She said it can take a while to find the right medicine that works for you, which puts me off as anti-...

Has anyone else experienced these pains at just over 31 weeks? Second day.. although for a few hours then go, curious as I don’t remember getting these with my first.

Is everyone monitoring the times of day their baby moves? My LG is so active all the time so I stopped for a while but am now wondering if that was irresponsible. Should I keep tracking or is it ok to be a bit relaxed about it?

Hey mamas! I’ll be 3 weeks PP on Tuesday. When I was in the hospital after surgery I was having intense pain on my right side. They told me it was probably just my uterus radiating pain.

I'm 29w tomorrow and the last few days I have had severe pain in both calves, at first I thought it was just cramps as I've read this can be common but it's constant. It can be hard for me to get off the bed at some points and the stairs are awful I just try to stay up or down. Has anyone else had this issue? I don'...

Please help! My 2 year old daughter is adamant in seeing ghosts.. yes ghosts! Im not aware of anyone telling her what a ghost is so it was a shock to the system to find her hiding under her duvet crying her eyes out because she thought there was a ghost in her room. Has anyone experienced this or anything similar? ...

I have had awful periods ever since they started at 11. They’ve always been extremely heavy and intense. The pain, which is mostly lower abdomen/groin and lower back and legs, was never just when I had my period as I’d have it throughout my menstrual cycle especially during ovulation. I haven’t had a flare up this...

Hey I’m 6 months pp and still having the worst back pain problems like it seizes up😩I feel so useless when it happens as I have to get my partner to lift me up so slowly and place me somewhere.
