Please tell me this is a common feeling and it will go. I’m 10weeks with our first baby but everything my partner does annoys me now and I’m sitting here getting upset at things and questioning weather I made the right life decisions having his child. I feel so guilty feeling like this but everytime he does somethin...

Any other May mamas having their gestational diabetes test tomorrow? Is it weird I’m more intrigued to form my own opinion on the uber sugary glucose drink? 😅

I need to get rid of this Amazon Forest down there!!! 😂 and Waxing would feel so nice as i’ve done it before! I’ve done hollywood wax before and was fine but haven’t done it for a long while meaning the hair is course and not fine anymore. Doing it now can be painful. But would the tensing be safe if i did it now…

12+6! A repost as no replies before. Girl or boy, what do you think? 💘 I really don’t understand the nub theory so some extra eyes would be lovely x

Is anyone else feeling a little sad as their pregnancy is coming to an end? I’m currently 35+2 so I’ve got over 4 weeks until my due date but I woke up feeling a bit sad that soon I won’t be pregnant or have a bump anymore. I’ve had very mixed feelings recently. Yesterday I felt done with being pregnant as I’ve h...

Does anyone else get nervous when their partner is gone all week for work and you're alone with baby , look forward to his days off!

I'm really curious, thanks!

I felt so ready for another one and have done for about 6 months. I’m also in my 30s and know that time wasn’t on our side. I’m pregnant with second baby, there will be be just under 3 years between them. I feel absolutely terrified now it’s going to be reality. I like life to be as easy as possible and try to ...

Hi mamas! I am 17w4d. I don’t do well with taking medications in time. Ofcourse it’s absolutely necessary during pregnancy, and I feel guilty because I keep skipping doses. When I do remember it’s usually during nighttime and if I take them, I am up all night 6-8 times to pee and I hate that. My concern is does ski...

I have had chronic migraines since I was a teenager and while I was pregnant, I didn’t have a single one. Now I’m about to be 4 weeks PP and I am getting one.. it is worse than before because now I have a newborn and can’t care for the migraine how I need to. And I’m exclusively breastfeeding.. are there options? Is...

Hi I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant with my first baby and I’m so scared of labour the closer I’m getting like will I actually know when I’m going into labour?

Totally aware I'm just hormonal but this is really irritating me. I'm 23w and we only really started telling people. We planned for our oldest to wear a jumper saying big sibling and they have been telling family which I think is cute. So far the first thing people have said is "awh I thought that" and its really ju...

I’m honestly clueless at nub theory . My husband and daughter thinks a girl . I’ll find out in the morning but interested to see what you experts think 😬

I had my GTT last week and haven’t been contacted so I’m guessing I don’t have it. I can see my results on the app though but there are no thresholds. Does anyone know the threshold for the fasting blood test and for the 2 hour one?

I’m 22 weeks pregnant with my second and have been prescribed antibiotics for a chest infection. I feel like death warmed up but it’s hard to rest with a toddler at home and working full time. Has anyone else been prescribed antibiotics? I know they are safe to take during pregnancy and I don’t know the point of thi...

Tomorrow I'm going to be 38 weeks and constantly getting tummy tightenings (my favourite Brixton hicks lol) and feeling a lot of pressure whenever I waddle my ass about. I was wondering if anyone is feeling the same and if not how you all coping with the third trimester so far ? Because honestly...I'm a moody co...

Any guesses if so? TIA xx
