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

Hi everyone. I’m uncomfortable with allowing people, including grandparents, kissing our newborn due to the risks, but my husband doesn’t see it as a big deal. Does anyone have information on this? Feeling a bit alone and unsure. Our baby is due in January and I feel this is something we need to know beforehand. Tha...

40+1 guys🥲 i have a sweep yesterday and have haf some bleeding, which is fine according to the midwife. Ive just gone toilet and ive had a bloody show... soooo, for those ladies who had a bloody show, how long until labour?! I need this baby out🥹

Going to try and keep this short as possible. My baby has been trying to get her left foot for weeks, she finally did it a few days ago, but she’s just not interested in the right foot. She looks at it a couple times, but not bothered by it, she puts her hand on her right knee but that’s as far as it goes or even t...

Hey girls just wondering if anyone has had the same pain. I can only describe it as a sort of stitch on the right side. I'm 4+3. It just started today

So I had a miscarriage on the 18th of October and found out I am pregnant again yesterday. I'm so worried about this pregnancy now and also the fact that my miscarriage was only a month ago... I don't know how far along I am ect because I never got a period before I fell pregnant again. I'm over the moon for being a...

4D scans, did you have one? Are they worth it? Been thinking about it for a while now but my partner isn’t keen as he thinks they’re ‘creepy’ 😂

Hi mummies, I’m due with my little man in 6 weeks and I’m having a hard time deciding whether to circumcise or not. My questions are What was the healing like for your boys? How old were they when they were circumcised? How was the procedure done for your son? And why did you choose to circumcise? Tia xoxo
