Anyone else having sharp side pains?

I’m 19w3d today and yesterday I started having weird, sharp side pains. They are lower on my sides and I’m wondering if it could just be the baby kicking as I have no idea what that feels like and they don’t last a long time. I know she’s very active from what I’ve seen on ultrasound I just haven’t felt kicking yet ...

Baby Movements

Movements come and go

I can feel baby moving but its still really inconsistent. Is that normal at this stage (19 weeks)?

HELP? 32 weeks pregnant.

Every ince in a while I would have a nightmare and wake up hot with my eye vision flashing. Google says flashing or changes in vision could indicate preeclampsia, but it lasts about 30 seconds before I realize it was just a nightmare and deep breathing. I’ve told myself it’s probably because my blood pressure got h...

Sorry for the picture, but does this look abnormal?

3 week old baby was EBF, then combi fed but now just formula fed as of two days ago due to breast issues. We’re using Kendamil formula but worried it like a large amount of mucus?

Hot sweats

In mat leave and trying to get the house sorted before baby arrives in a couple of weeks. Only doing bit at a time but feels like I'm working up a sweat doing simple tasks. Is this me coming down with something or just pregnancy telling me to slow down? Neighbours probably think I'm mad with windows open 🤣
