Hello! My little girl just turned 1 and her hair growth has been on my mind a lot lately. I know all babies are different but I feel like her hair just isn’t growing up the top / front ? The back is growing- still not a lot but growing. Just the top / front. So many babies younger I see have heaps of hair. Should ...

Hi guys… I get my implant removed next week and I’m so nervous… I know how it’s gonna get removed and I know what to expect during the removal and I know that my body will go back to normal as soon as it’s taken out but I’m really nervous.

I am struggling with the guilt that I just don't seem to love my baby like I did/do my first born. Will this get better in time? Everyone says your heart grows but I just don't want it to be obvious I have a favourite of this feeling doesn't go away. Is this normal?

Im feeling really guilty about annoucements/baby gender reveals and baby showers. This will be our first child, and only child as we had to get help to conceive, and it's been a long journey of multiple losses and awful heartbreaks over and over... I'm not exactly excited and still not really embracing it's final...

Does everyone else go through pregnancy depression

I have a daughter, age 4. I’m religious but her father isn’t fully there yet. He wasn’t raised in the Word like I was and he tends to do things like curse, be verbally homophobic, or call ppl “demons” when playing video games. I’m in the process of leaving him because his parenting style doesn’t promote positivity a...

Have you been having hair loss? Does everyone get it or majority? Also is there anything you have used for the hair like any supplements?

So I attended a baby shower about two weeks ago, for me to attend this shower, I had to stay the night at my mil house due to us not having a vehicle (it’s in the shop) but anyway my younger sister in law had to stay here with my husband and the kids due to my older sister in law not wanting kids at her big day 🙄…

Can anyone relate. I become so angry and hateful and tearful when I’m due on like it’s so bad, it feels like my real emotions that I feel when I’m not due on but it’s like x100. When I’m due on I feel like I’m too soft when I’m not due on and these are my true emotions which I hide 🤦🏽‍♀️ I’ve been like this since a…

My baby’s circumcision is tomorrow. What was your experience with it (before, during and after)? Were you present?

Anyone else just having one child and that’s it? My LO is now 3 and I feel like I’m only now starting to feel a tiny bit like myself. I just feel like to have another child will mentally put me back in the trenches. My first pregnancy I had severe anxiety and post partum I was not looking after myself health wise ...

I stuck with my ex for three almost four years I allow this man to tear me down every chance he got until he broke me down so small its like I don't exist

Anyone else’s sex life massively improved since having a baby? I’m 4 months pp and we’re having sex like when we first got together! Feeling so connected

Just wanting to feel a little less alone in this. (Also I really don't want to take medicine.)

My daughter was born unexpectedly at 23 weeks, 2 years ago. She is honestly doing amazing, the doctors say she is a miracle and we should just treat her as a “normal” girl, since she has no “issues” from being born so early. It is incredible, and I can’t be more thankful. But why am I still struggling? She is my fir...

At what point postpartum did you use silicone scar patches on your incision & did they work?

Mamas what are we doing about this PP hair loss. It seems to have happened over night

I feel afraid and stressed. How do I come to enough peace inside to let her out, with so much uncertainty? Now I’ve got a new fear of having to be induced. And I’m uncomfortable with the idea of being in such a vulnerable position with him as my support.

My MIL lives close and she wants to come over weekly for a few hours to see my daughter and her son and I - which isn’t a problem. It’s just my gut always flips when she’s around, she doesn’t feel authentic to me and her energy is off. Shes always saying the right thing but with mean undertones. It’s so hard to ex...
