Congratulations. I’ve got two, 7 years and 14 months. And I’m pregnant with my third so I’ll have 2 under 2 as well. Fun times ahead 😅

I had 2 under 2! The first three months are hard but you’ll be fine. They the best of friends so cute. I have 3, 20 months and a third on the way haha

I got pregnant with my daughter when our son was 8 months. It wasn't too bad and they are so close!

My mom had the exact same situation (she had me, and then pregnant when I was 8months). Ofc the 1st 2 years it is hard, but very soon it get easy : my brother and I were very very close, always together, playing together, even if we were very very different (and are still : I was a very girly princess who invented stories, and he loved invented things, break the toys…) As a child I loved this tiny gap ! And my mother never regretted it ! (+ no need to entertain kids, they are best friends !

And I hope being able to have my second around that time too !
Honestly I think the 2first challenging years are really really worth it for everyone !
Congratulations, do not worry, take each day by each day 🥰

Hi sorry I haven’t been in your situation but there is 14 months between me and my sister and I really like that we are 1 school year apart and we have a very happy close relationship. Congratulations 🩷

Midwife appointment

Just had my 37 week midwife appointment today and they said that my baby is 3/5 engaged, does that mean baby’s head is basically fully in my pelvis? (Can’t remember what it means from my first baby 😂)

Also my blood pressure was quite high and I had to go to triage, they checked again it was ok but I have to go back again tomorrow to see a doctor in the day assessment unit, what happens if it doesn’t come down?

I’m 37 weeks pregnant now so I have 2 weeks or more before I give birth, as with my first I gave birth at 39 weeks even tho (I was induced) so is there enough time if needed to bring my blood pressure down? As usually I have really good blood pressure so I’ve never experienced this before even before pregnancy so this is all very new to me 😂

37 weeks

Anyone else just suuuuper uncomfortable now? I can’t wait for this baby to arrive. I thought baby number 1 was uncomfortable but this is another level!

How’s everyone doing?

Self Confidence Issues

Hey guys! I’m 24 + 5 now. I’m 5”6 and always been chubby anyway. I’ve just started filling out now but to the stage where all I can see is fat. My self confidence is so low.

I feel like if people didn’t know I was pregnant they would just think I’m fat. I know it shouldn’t bother me but I’m so self conscious even walking through the village with the dog or even being around people.

Also I seem to be a lot bigger under my boobs around my middle section!

From experience do you even out to look pregnant or is this just me?

Also does anyone have any ideas of clothes which may be flattering in pregnancy. This is my first time and any help is really appreciated 😊

Twin pregnancy with anterior placenta

Hi twin mums, looking for some advice please. I’m currently 20 weeks with an anterior placenta. This is my first pregnancy and I’ve felt no obvious movements…..I occasionally (2-3 times a day) get what feel like period pains briefly in various locations which I assume is them moving and causing some stretching of the uterus?
Is it normal to not have felt obvious movement by now?
Thanks in advance ☺️
