Birthday ideas

It’s far off, but I have no idea what to plan for my second’s first birthday as it’s mid December 🫠 For my first we went to the zoo as he was a summer baby and it was a great excuse to drag my whole family to the zoo 🤣 but our second is a winter baby, so anything indoor could also mean illnesses at that time of…

Need support pls

Just had my first consult where we reviewed my scan and amh results and I was obsolutely slated because of my "very low" amh(7.4).

Conjunctivitis

Have any of your LO’s had it and not needed eyedrops? Did it get better by itself? My daughter woke up with it l and I’ve cleaned it how your supposed to, and they’re not really red or swollen, so I don’t want to give drops unless she needs them

Birthday party theme

Alright, baby's 2nd birthday is coming and I love a good PUNny theme. It's going to be at a trampoline park (don't worry, it's happening in the toddler section). I'm thinking "Jump 2 it" for theme. Thoughts?

1st Chemical Pregnancy

At the end of February after a few months of trying for our 2nd I tested positive on day two of what would have been my period (the line was faint). Then next day I decided to test again and it was again positive but the line was a bit less faint. Three days later, I decided to test with my “fancy” test (digital) an...

Planned C section Monday

Heyyy having a C section on Monday right at 38 weeks! I am sooo anxious about it now... and wondering if anyone has had their baby with a C section? Or had their baby at 38 weeks? What was it like?.. (reason OB planned it for 38 is because of a cornual ectopic pregnancy a longtime ago...) Thank you!!!

Sitting

How are your babies going with sitting up on their own? Are they doing it yet? Close? Not close? Assisted? Unassisted? (Please remember no matter where your baby is at, they are growing and doing perfectly and they will reach their milestones when THEY are ready and not because society says they should be 🤍)

Seeking advice: Deliver locally at Whipps Cross or at a further university hospital (UCLH) ?

Hi! I am 31 weeks pregnant with a planned vaginal birth with an epidural. I am torn between delivering at UCLH (central London near my office) or my local hospital.
