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

I’m 21 weeks with my third baby. I had my detailed scan yesterday and was told my placenta is low and I need it checking again at 32 weeks. Has anyone else had this?

Will be 31 weeks on Saturday does anyone else feel as though their movements are more baby moving around rather than kicks?

Hows everyone’s last few weeks going?? I am 37+4 and my body feels like its just in a jittery overdrive. I was having rest-less legs and thought I had solved it with some magnesium supplements but now I have whole body restlessness 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ been up at 3 and staying up many nights lately. Blah I am like ok maybe…

hi all, when is the best time to book a private scan? it is my first pregnancy, and i’m approx 7 weeks so feel slightly nervous…

2nd baby girl due 21st April 🎀

My midwife has only measured me once at 28 weeks. She guessed my first measurement and now my entire chart is off. Has anyone had this happen??

How did everyone feel straight after their c section? I had my c section at 10am. I genuinely cannot remember anything at all of that day until the evening after my partner had gone home. I remember my baby was crying all night and I didn’t get a wink of sleep. But there’s something particular I just can’t forget...
