anyone else experienced stomach cramps in their pregnancy?

Where do you get your motivation from? I’m 30 weeks now and just want to nap, look after my 16 month old and prepare for the new baby. Is anyone going on mat leave soon or winding down from work yet? xx

Had my little one in April with epidural as pain relief. The last few days the site where they put the epidural has started to really hurt/ feels really weak… mainly if I’m sitting & when I stand from the sitting position, when I’m standing the pain goes away. Up until now I’ve had no problems, just seems to have ...

What is going on with my body today? I’m trying not to get my hopes up but is this early-ish labor? I woke up with period-like cramps and my boobs are killing me.

I'm 30 weeks and have had the worst RLS at night before falling asleep since 28 weeks. At first compression socks helped! Now they don't at all :( I've tried every size/compression there is. Last night I tried a bath and heating pad and that failed too. Anyone else have this? What works for you?

I’m temporarily living with my mother. I have three siblings who are under the age of 10 and two kids under the age of 7. I never know which child is eating the snacks because out of the 5 there’s 3 that would be the culprit. 1 being my daughter. My son would ask before ever taking. I’m pregnant and I have a strong ...

Grateful it’s just that t the moment but anything I can do to calm it down a bit? I wouldn’t mind so much but it’s making me do nothing but lay on the sofa for hours which isn’t ideal because I also have a job😂

I'm 6 weeks tomorrow, but the only symptoms I've really had this week are sore boobs, bloating and headaches.... past 2 weeks I was super tired, but that's gone away this week... no sickness or food aversions yet. Anyone else been in a similar situation? It half makes me wonder if I'm actually pregnant 😂 I'll be…
