Community Posts, Tips & Support on Second Trimester

Last week (37weeks) I was admitted for baby's unstable lie- she was diagonal,the concern was a cord prolapse if waters went- she got in the right position and stayed for a few days so it was considered safe to go home. So since Friday I have seen triage twice as it felt like she moved back out of place and had a p...

Anyone been feeling for a second baby yet ? I don't know what it is but a few months ago I kept saying to myself I can't think of having another child. I don't know what it is but I kinda miss being pregnant ? My experience as a mother so far has been crazy and chaotic as it is. I can say that I'm still healing ph...

Hi everyone! I’m 6 weeks pregnant and I suffer was emetaphobia. This is my second pregnancy and I don’t remember being so anxious! I literally spend all day with a racing heart.

My baby is 13 weeks tomorrow and is normally a happy baby who only cries if we don’t get a bottle in time. The last couple of days, there has been screaming and back arching and has been pretty inconsolable. I’ve checked everything, hunger, nappy, temperature and all is fine. Even a bath isn’t working 🥺 We went…

I am 33 weeks and 1 day pregnant and I haven’t been able to shave my legs or my coochie . I don’t even have the energy to try to shave and can you blame me ? I am just glad my partner doesn’t care about body hair😂

Hi all im really struggling and looking for advice/ someone to chat to that’s maybe been in a similar situation. I’m 24 weeks into my second pregnancy and I’m struggling so much .

Hi all, I’m 8 weeks PP and I’ve still not had my period. I had a c-section on the 29th August and I’m getting a little worried. I’ve not had any signs of it coming anytime soon. Should I be worried? Or is it normal for it not to have come yet.

I’m 13 weeks and I wanna make sure I’m in the right group cause the date they told me doesn’t line up with my pregnancy (they told me end of march) pic so I don’t get lost

I haven’t been hospital because I don’t wanna waste their time but should I go for the baby sake ? Kicks have been normal but I’ve been told about u can rupture ur placenta

For a very long time, even before I was pregnant, I have thought what my birth would look like - natural (no meds), dull lights, relaxing music etc; however, now I’m pregnant I’m seriously considering a C-section. I know that anyway a baby is brought into this world is beautiful and the most important thing is the...

Guys, I’m 32 weeks, I’ve had an upset stomach for a couple of days and my lower back is achy - baby is head down already (confirmed last week). Also baby boy is rather big (estimated at over 4 and a half pounds already) Tell me not to freak out - nothing’s happening right?

Hi - does anyone know the range for Gestational Diabetes test? I failed mine. My results came back 7.8 mmol/L but I feel like that’s quite low or just within the range of having GD. What are my options, could I ask to be tested again? What were your results? Thanks in advance x

I have an 8 month old and I just found out I am 8 weeks and 5 days pregnant 😀 I’m scared like very. Is there any moms out there that has delt with or has 2 under 2 ?

Just curious on people’s thoughts about having things you wouldn’t when you’re pregnant in the TTC phase. I ovulated about a week ago so still about a week to see if I get a period or am luckily pregnant this time. I am not a big drinker but have a party on the weekend and so torn whether to have a couple of drink...

How was your experience with that??

My boyfriend is not easily stressed out, like it takes a lot. We have so much to do before baby arrives and I'm stressed about it but he doesn't feel the stress!! It then makes me more stressed and more angry that he's not worried at all, and it kinda makes me feel like my stress is invalidated! Like, I just want s...
