Well Norfolk is in the top 10 cities in the US for allergens. But that’s odd that it happens when you shower. I hope you don’t have a mild problem or something. It a good idea to also get a high quality air filter and replace the one in your air conditioner.

really? i didmt know that. no we checked and we have no mold problem and we change our filters frequently. i have no idea what’s going on it literally only happens after and during a shower.

Could it be from a fragrance or something you use?

i use the same products that i’ve always used! and weirdly when i lived in maryland and i came to virginia for a weekend trip the same thing happened, then when i went back to maryland i was completely fine. i went to the doctor about this because the allergy got pretty severe and they just gave me more meds

Hmmm…. I can say that when you shower you clean out your nose so maybe a freshly showered nose is more Sensitive to allergens? I like Zyrtec. The other pills like Claritin and Allegra don’t work for me. I’ve used allergy nose spray on top of Zyrtec when my allergies are super bad. But recently I got migraines every time I used the nasal spray so I stopped.

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?

32 weeks
