Is anyone having lower back pain? It’s really aching at times - on and off throughout the day. I’m 4 +5

My waters broke last night at 11:30pm. Since then I’ve been having contractions every 10 minutes and it hasn’t progressed at all! I am so frustrated. I went to the birth centre but they sent me back home because they said they need to be 3/4 minutes apart even though I am having 1 minute contractions. I really don’t...

This is my first time misplacing my ebt card. If I go to the building can I get a replacement same day ?

Anyone else get insomnia after a miscarriage? I think it could also be the hormones dropping!?

hey how many steps were people doing a day whilst pregnant with more than one baby? I’m trying my best but I just feel so tired?

hey so I’m trying my best to be more active in this pregnancy but at the minute only doing like 5000 steps a day because I feel SO tired and it’s making me feel really guilty , is anyone else experiencing this?

I've had a nuboligist site look at my scan and wanted to see what you guys think? And if you see the same. I'm having a gender scan next week🤗

Really struggling with sleeping on my side due to pressure on my hips and discomfort. Has anybody got any tips to help ?

I just wanted to show off my little one who will be 8 months in 9 days🥹

Hey Everyone, my little bundle of joy was born 7th November 2024 at 38 weeks, weighing 8lb 10oz I’m just here hoping i can meet other parents, as I’m a new mummy and I currently don’t know many people in the area we moved into.

37 weeks and just found out that I am positive on this. I am so worried now. I wanted natural birth but I want my baby to be safe . Waiting for doctor now to see what is next 😭

I’m 26 weeks pregnant, I’ve felt baby moving for a month or so now, and it seems entirely logical to me that how I feel the baby’s movements will change. Surely as the baby is growing and moving about in there, I will feel different sensations…? And I have! I understand there are risks but if baby is less active one...

I’ve been adamant it’s a girl my whole pregnancy but just been for the 12-14 week scan and I swear that nub is saying boy! 🤍

Is anyone else struggling with blurred vision and headaches?

For the past 3 days I have had 2-4 hours of bleeding a day but very light, like you’d only notice when you wipe at the toilet? I’m so confused to what this is as I am currently only 4dpo! Has this happened to anyone else ?

Who else is just ALWAYS HUNGRY?? If i don’t eat for more than 2 hours I start feeling nauseous and start heaving 😭😭

Has anyone else experienced a constant dull ache in their left hip/groin post C-section with occasional very sharp pains? I’m 16 days post C-section and paracetamol, ibuprofen and dihydrocodeine isn’t doing much pain wise. Incision all looks ok so not sure what is going on 🤷‍♀️

If youve had an elective c section and you hadn't started labour at all before hand, did you bleed vaginally straight away? Or is there a delay? With my 1st I had an emergency c section but I was fully dilated and pushing, the whole shabang at that point so I bled straight away.. im just trying to see where I'll sta...

Hey all! This time around, I'm having a planned caesarian section as having my first born was quite traumatic and ended up being a category 2 emergency ❤️ Any planned section mamas here who have been through it before, what can I expect from a planned section?

Hi there! Has anyone else been worrying that their bump isn’t that big yet? 15w today and keep seeing bumps on TikTok etc and look nothing like that! First baby for me which I know makes a difference but still makes you worry slightly
