Anterior placenta

It better not happen in my next pregnancy. I’m almost 27 weeks and I’m tired of only feeling her in my cervix. I want to see the belly move or at least feel it 🥹 Hoping it happens in my third trimester.

5 weeks pregnant and cramping

Hey guys, I’m in the middle of my first PP Endo episode and I need help! I’m still bf, so I’m only allowed a couple medications.

Horrific morning sickness

Anyone else struggling with morning sickness? I’m so sick all day 😭 I’m on Prochlorperazine and saw the GP today who has upped my dose but that doesn’t seem to be helping either. Basically I only get relief when I’m lying down 😭

Tired all the time

I’m officially 25 weeks pregnant (plus or minus a few days) and I feel utterly exhausted. Is that common? I work from home and nothing seems to help my energy level. I go to bed early, I eat healthy and try to play with my dog. But I’m always tired.

Sickness dying down

For those second time mums or those further along, when did your sickness start to calm down? I’m 10 weeks tomorrow and have started to feel better the last few days. Today I only felt sick once. I don’t know whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing?!

??

Feels like baby is bearing down more… it hurts and feels like so much pressure down there when I go to stand up… could labor be close?? Should I be on the lookout?? Can definitely tell he’s pushing on my bowels too Bcs I feel like I have to poop and when I try to go it’s either very little or nothing at all!!
