Has anyone ever had complete loss of appetite in the first trimester? Even when I’m not nauseous it’s really hard to eat. I have to force myself. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I didn’t have this problem in my first pregnancy 🫠

Anyone have experience taking the sneak peek gender test? And comment what week you did if you remember:)

My little girls just turned 6 months today & we’ve decided it’s time for her to go into her big girl bed ( cot ) 🥹😭. Is it normal for me to be this nervous? I’m just over thinking about everything.. what if she rolls onto her front & she can’t get back over etc. did anyone else worry like this?

Is anyone else feeling more and more scared for what's to come the closer you get to D-day. I'm 30+2 now and I'm starting to get really scared about labour (this is my first baby). I'm such a woose when it comes to pain. I can't wait to meet my little lady though.

I'm also struggling to check my blood sugar levels as I'm terrorised by blood and ...

Want to skip straight to the second trimester - anyone else??

Just entered third trimester and now when this baby moves it hurts! And I am feeling so much pressure in my lower belly. It's frustrating bc I work full time and the pain and discomfort is extremely distracting! Any tips or do I just need to deal with it 😂

I’m 23 weeks and 2 days and my fatigue has been so bad today. I can barely function. My belly feels heavy but baby has not been moving as much. Found baby’s heartbeat on a at home Doppler though. Should I be concerned?

Comments like, “Wow! You’ve gotten so big!” “You’ve REALLY popped!” “You’ll be huuuuge in a month!”

Can’t believe this is happening again ! It happened with my boy and I got preeclampsia….dr and midwife said it wouldn’t be likely to happen again ….now they have changed their tune and saying I’m at risk and telling me all the signs (what I already know) and said the likely hood it coming to preeclampsia again is mo...
