I give up 😭😭

13 months trying for our rainbow baby, 7 months on clomid and still not getting pregnant! I don’t know if I can handle more heartbreak. It’s too much. I wouldn’t even know where to start to get my husband tested or even if I should. I’m so angry, upset and depressed about it. 😭😭😭😭

Fed up!

38 +2 weeks, exhausted, burning indigestion which Omeprazole isn't doing nothing for. So fed up of being pregnant but so anxious about giving birth, you would not think this was my 2nd Pregnancy!

Hey ladies :) just needing some guidance in regards to working out . I have consistently been going to the gym for 2 years now.

I am 5 weeks pregnant , should I carry on working out or wait until my midwife appointment to understand if I can still lift etc . Also has anyone taking creatine while being pregnant ?

Pregnant with a twonager!

Is there anyone else pregnant with a two-year-old/toddler? How are you coping? I feel like this pregnancy is so different to when I was pregnant with my little boy..I could relax if I felt tired but there’s no chance of doing that with a toddler bouncing on my head 😂😂

First time pregnancy

First time ever being pregnant so I’m really new to all of this. I was just wondering why people say they are 7 + 2 pregnant? Sorry if this is a stupid question. First day of my last period was 18th June so I’m a bit confused as to how many weeks I am and what the + means? Thanks in advance 🩷

My July became August baby 🥰

My little girl finally arrived yesterday at 41+3 at 7:34am. Born at home with an 11 hour labour through the night. No interventions, no inductions/sweeps for suspected big baby (which she was but she came out just fine). She weighed 8lb & 14oz and I got away with a 2nd degree tear. I trusted that my babe would come ...
