Little Missy decided to show off her game winning soccer kicks at 3 am. I have an anterior placenta so I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to feel her move or kick, let alone see her move and kick so visibly as I do sometimes. Clearly, she’s determined and stronger than she looks. 28 weeks and two days roughly, mi...

Sorry for the over sharing - I am a bit lost on what to do! I have had some really brown gloopy discharge, and I’m 9+3 weeks. Never had it before and didn’t with my first. Anybody else had this?

My baby girl is mostly very active. I’m 24 + 2, and her movements aren’t exactly regular but there is a lot of them. However today she’s been a little quieter. I’ve had this before a week or so ago and the next day she was back to being a big old wriggle - am I just being paranoid?

I’ve been told back ache is worse with twins. If anyone suffered with back ache when did start ?
