Broody

Did broodiness literally slap anybody else in the face ??? I said to my partner possibly June/early July time that I feel worried that I’ll never feel the broodiness to have a second baby as I haven’t felt even a slight bit of it since our June 2023 baby and he said he’s sure we both will when the time is right but ...

41 weeks and 2 days 😢

Feeling so low and like it’s never going to happen.

Anyone else feeling the same or have any signs? I really want them to arrive by Wednesd...

Not excited for baby

Is anyone else just not excited for their baby? This will be my second baby and I don’t know why but right now I’m just not excited. Every time I’m reminded or think about it, I honestly get really depressed and upset. What does this mean?

Morning mummy’s!

31 weeks + 1 day!💙 So blessed and excited to meet him now.. do these last 9 weeks drag on? How is everyone doing, are we excited are we nervous? So incredibly in love with our little boy already, this 10 week countdown is starting to feel so lonely. He’s so close, yet so far. He’s done nothing but stress me out…

Was your second baby bigger?

I am only 26 weeks pregnant with my second but I am already the same belly size and weight as I was at 32 weeks with my first. It feels insane and I can’t imagine how much bigger my belly is going to get or how much more weight I’m going to gain. Was your second baby bigger than your first? Or is this all fat? 😫
