Community Posts, Tips & Support on Second Trimester

First time mom🌸My baby isn’t due til February 15th, idk if I’m delusional because I want my baby or I’m overthinking orrrr if it’s my newfound mother intuition but I alwayz feel like my baby will be born early😅

Got diagnosed with pre eclampsia in pregnancy and still dealing with the shit from it now. Doc said I might have to be on BP meds for life. Can I live a long life with BP meds? Kinda worried

Hi all! I’ve got my GD test in a couple of weeks and I’ve been testing at home myself, I think my numbers seem to be fine post meal but my fasting bloods have been around 3.5 - are these too low and would I then be classed as having GD for low sugars? It’s around 5.7 on average after eating.

Hi, this is my second pregnancy. I had pre eclampsia with my first. They have classed me as high risk this time around and I have an appointment with an obstetrician tomorrow. Has anyone had one of these appointments before what do they go through/ talk about. Thankyou 😊

can anyone help settle a debate my baby was born on monday 4th i thought she be 4 weeks one month old today but my partner is saying because today is the 2nd the one month isn’t for two more days i counted it as 4 weeks today though

Sorry if I’m repeating this question but I can’t find any old posts! I breastfed for probably the first 8 weeks mixed with formula but my babies tongue tie was so bad and we were both in and out of hospital it just wasn’t possible. My first period was the end of October and was very heavy which I expected for the fi...

I started taking these about 2 months ago. I ended up losing 20lbs and finally got a peak lh test. We did the baby dance and we just found out we are pregnant 2 days ago. Definitely recommend these

After your first period, were the subsequent ones regular? Did you go back to not having periods or did you miss periods? I am concerned as mine hasn't shown up yet and I am due.

I’m 34 weeks. Overwhelmed by the amount of things to do before delivery. Second trimester felt more in control, but now it’s a different story. How do mommas manage their emotions during the last trimester?

Has anybody seen any benefits to eating dates during the last few weeks of pregnancy? I can start eating them this week and was just curious. Also how did you eat them? And how many?

I am so excited to get closer and closer to my due date. But since baby is on the bigger size he will probably be here sooner then 49 days.

30 weeks and Breech (or I was at 28 weeks). Anyone else still breech? I know I have 6 more weeks before it’s an issue but my son was head down the whole time and it has me worrying. I feel so much less pressure this pregnancy and her being breech is making her head an oblong shape which is making her measurements lo...

First trimester and I just recently started being nauseous 24/7 and it’s so bad I can hardly get myself to eat and I’ve been crying from how horrible I’ve been feeling. Has anyone else tried these before ? Do you think they can help ?

Atm i want to just stay in this bubble of being pregnant and not deal with all the changes to come and all the preparation

I have two weeks and three days left until my due date. Hospital bag is packed. Baby room is ready. New parents are scared out of their minds 😅 Can any mums give me a full rundown on their first birth stories? I don’t care how gruesome. I need to know.

I’ve got a feeling I’ve got pre eclampsia. My blood pressure readings are normal but my breathing and my eyes aren’t. I’m 33 weeks and 2 days

Hi guys after a bit of advice/calm my nerves… I’m almost 23 weeks pregnant and I’ve very stupidly carried a tv down 2 flights of stairs… have I done something wrong? Have i hurt the baby?😅

Hi 👋 is anyone going through the same? I’m due 6/01/25 however I’m thinking baby boy will make an arrival in December now due to measuring big at 32 weeks 5.5lb thyroid condition and yesterday I was admitted to hospital with a BP of 161/110 however I’m now being medicated with lebatrol twice daily which has…

I’m 35 weeks. This is my second pregnancy and it’s so so different from my first. For my first I had a tiny bump and she was born small, but this one feels huge by comparison. I constantly feel exhausted (whereas I was at the gym right up until the day before giving birth previously). Heartburn this time, headaches...
