I'm 12 weeks and got my on Tuesday. I had a reassurance one at 9 weeks though so I've already seen baby =) I had a open myomectomy and a csection with my son which means it looks like I've had 2 csections.

Hi ladies, my husband’s birthday is next weekend, and I’ll be around 8 weeks and 3 days. We’ve got 12 of our closest friends visiting, so we’re planning to share the news with them. We had a private scan today, and everything looked great—the heartbeat was fluttering away beautifully. I know it’s a little early to s...

Has anyone else felt left out because you’re pregnant?

Has anyone started to plan a babymoon? Where are you all going? ☺️ I’m desperate for some sunshine thinking around end of Jan into Feb, I’ll be about 23-24 weeks then which seems about the right time, but I feel so limited with where we can go due to Zika risk. Been considering Dubai, it’s not my usual holiday typ...

My husband travels for work and comes home tomorrow for a week. We were trying for a baby before he left and now I’m 8 weeks. I wanted to wait to tell him in person, but I know he’ll be excited. We have an almost 8 month old so I was thinking of putting “Soon to be big brother - coming July 2025” on my felt board wi...

Hey all happy to report exactly a week ago (at 31 weeks) baby girl came along. And its been a week of having her in NicU and she's perfect! Very advanced and thank God healthy and happy. She's breathing on her own and has been able to start breastfeeding! It's been tricky as she's so small but everyday we're closer ...

This is my second pregnancy and I’m an EMOTIONAL WRECK about my first baby! He’s nearly 2 and I keep bursting into tears thinking about how much I love him, mixed feelings of picturing him being a big brother and how lovely this will be and feeling guilty that he has to share us! Just can’t stop crying! Does anyone ...
