Hi all! I’m 26 weeks pregnant and I have my next scan at 36 weeks and my next midwife appointment at 28 weeks. Anyone knows how it works for the glucose test? Do they test everyone for it or only if you have symptoms? And if they do at how many weeks?
I am 36+3 and for the last few days it feels as if this baby is gonna fall out of my back passage 😅 so much pressure ,it goes down to my legs as well. I feel like I need a loo, but I’m not constipated. I never had this with my firstborn so I don’t know what is this 😂 In the front I also feel pressure for mostly in…
Please ladies how do we count this? I’ve gotta do the two months photography with the card saying I’m two months old. Is it at 8 weeks or the date they were born on??? Let’s say born 5th December is two months at 5th February? Or when it falls on 8wees
Has anyone else had this? Mine is only 4mm lower than they like but I’m planned to go on holiday in 3 weeks (23 weeks pregnant) and unsure on whether to go?
Had my test on Wednesday morning (fast 12hrs, blood test, drunk glucose drink, wait 2hrs, blood test) which was fine. But on my early commute to work next morning I came all over all nauseous like I was actually going to throw up, really hot and sweaty, dizzy and thought I may faint (may have fainted in my seat!) la...
My fetal fraction was 19% at the NIPT 10 week test. Does that mean twins? That seems high for ten weeks?
So i have a daughter and I'm starting to notice that about a week before my period she starts to get real moody and has a lot of bigger emotions than normal over nothing. My husband jokingly stated that her period might have started and you know what je might be on to something. It would make sense with the same hor...
Did anyone get a blood work done for genetic testing and the gender? How did it take for you to get results.. it’s been a week. Just curious, don’t remember if it took long with my daughter. TIA
Has anybody taken magnesium in there third trimester?
What does everyone think? Not very good with how the nub theory works
Anyone so uncomfortable when watching tv and just chilling on the sofa? I feel like if I sit too upright or my back isn’t padded out, my belly is digging up into my ribs🙃 but don’t want to lay too far back as you’re not meant to!
I’m freaking out a little bit! I got blood work to confirm my pregnancy at 3weeks 5days and my HCG came back at 386 which is very high for 3 weeks, but in the middle of the normal range for 4 weeks. My progesterone also came back in the higher range at 37.9. I already have a toddler and am really hoping I have a sin...
I had a GTT test around 29 weeks and results came back absolutely fine. I am growing a “borderline” big baby and today after a growth scan where sonographer said baby’s growth is continuing nicely on growth chart that she would book me in for a second GTT. Am I ok to decline this ? I just don’t see the point as I’...
When are people thinking of starting to collect colostrum I’m currently 29 weeks 3 days with my second baby and some sites say 32 week and some say 36???
I am currently 5 weeks pregnant and not at the weight that I would of preferred when getting pregnant but was not planned. Has anyone had a same experience to put me at ease a tiny bit 💕
I’m scheduled for a caesarean next week and I’m so nervous I won’t know how to care for my baby. He’s my first. I’m spending endless hours researching how to care for newborns. Has anyone else felt the same and do the maternal instincts kick in? Please say yes 🙏
Hello ladies! Quick question, is anyone else experiencing postpartum high blood pressure ? Mine was super normal throughout the pregnancy but recently became high after giving birth Feb 5th. It’s been mentally draining 😭 I’ve heard it may go back to normal in a few weeks but I’ve also heard some say their blood…
Should have known better than to even open my results without a 2nd draw done. 1,894 today. Hoping for good results Friday. Wishing this number had been a little higher.

Hi ladies! So, I was a member of October 2023 babies and didn't expect to be back, lol. I have an 11 year old and 16 month old. We struggled through 3 losses and trying for 5 years before having our last. She's still nursing, and I noticed a huge drop in my milk supply, so I tested, and it was positive. Sooo unexpe...
