Smelly?!
This is a serious TMI so sorry in advance, but does anyone find that they seem to constantly smell like urine down there??? I don't feel like I'm peeing myself as far as I'm aware but sometimes (in this heat especially) I feel like I can smell myself and its grim. Please tell me It's not just me?!
Always double check your prescriptions!
Im 14 weeks pregnant and got a text from the gp to say that id tested postive for thrush and theyd sent a prescription to the pharmacy.

Leucocytes in urine.
So my urine test today showed leucocytes but the midwife basically told me I'm probably fine? I mentioned needing the toilet more often too. Should I call my GP just in case?

Birth Control
Hey ladies, I’m currently 36+3 today! My last midwife appointment they talked about what birth control I would like after birth!

Has anyone taken Plan B after 5 days?
I've seriously messed up. I'm not sure why I've prolonged taking it. Just having a 6 month old, pumping out milk all day, cleaning after cleaning and work. It just went over my head. We are not ready whatsoever for another one.... how I wish we were. 🥺 I refused to have an abortion. Why did I do this to myself!!

Lovima contraceptive pill?
Does anyone take this? I couldn't get in at tne doctors, so I bought it at boots. But after researching online and looking at reviews, it sounds awful!

Vaginal Estrogen Pessary for Prolapse
Has anyone else tried this?? I’ve been prescribed this by my GP after my private Mummy MOT physio recommended it. And it seems to have fixed my fairly severe uterine and rectal prolapses almost instantly. 🤯 I’m 4 and a half months post partum. There’s several weeks worth of tablets. And I’m only on the first week.…
