I’m 19 weeks pregnant and today when I went to the toilet there was blood - after a slight panic I realised it was from my bum. Is there anything I can take to stop this?
The past few days, I've been getting a strange feeling. It's exactly like it feels like right before you get a period. That weird cramping where you know blood is about to start. But it's like a dull cramping. And around the time it started, I was having really bad lower back pain that seems to be getting better n...

Anyone else having super bad pelvic pain where they can hardly walk?
I had a c section 4 weeks ago exactly and everything went fine and recovery was amazing so I was back to normal within about two weeks . The past few nights when I have got into bed I have noticed that one of my legs is aching mainly at the top in my thigh . I am already paranoid about blood clots so my mind is g...
Does anyone else’s baby movements hurt them? At first they were uncomfortable but now they just hurt, like I’m being kicked and punched really hard from the inside. It’s makes me physically sick, I hate it. I’m constantly grabbing my stomach or going in the foetal position when I feel movement to try and stifle the ...
So I just had my lo 11/16 and he was a little jaundice but we got cleared for discharge 11/19. I’m concerned because his eyes are still a bit yellow. They cleared up a bit after giving him formula throughout the night but now seem to be back. I can post pics for reference but any advice? Has anyone else had this pro...
My LO has a very stuffy nose and chesty cough. I worry he is not breathing properly. I’ve tried to give saline drops and to suction mucus from his nose, but he is absolutely not having it. He is not a fussy baby but for some reason anytime I approach his nose with a tissue, drops or suction tool he gets extremely up...
Is anyone else’s newborn experiencing blocked tear duct/s? It seems pretty common but hate seeing his eyes all gunky all the time 😓 Have just been advised to keep bathing with boiled water and eventually it’ll go. He was 4 weeks yesterday born at 37+6.

Everyday I feel like I just can't be a stay at home mom. I dont like feeling overstimulated, stressed and anxious. I on and off deal with stress eating. I read in books its best for babies to be with their moms.. so I stay home. But deep down I just want to run
I am putting on weight but I honestly can’t find time in the day to exercise and on the rare occasion I can, I’m just too tired. How do you do it? For context-both me and dad wfh on our own business and lo doesn’t go to nursery so is with us all the time apart from one day a week when grandparents have her. My bo...
Does anyone else just feel massively overwhelmed! I feel like by the time I’ve been to work, cleaned the house and done all the bits I have to get done it’s time for me to go to sleep and do it all again. The other mums I speak to all seem to enjoy their evenings? I don’t seem to have any time! When I go out with fr...
If you bled early pregnancy and went on to have a successful pregnancy how long did you bleed for? I’ve been spotting for the last three days. I’m going in tomorrow to see if my hgc levels are rising. At first I wasn’t too concerned bc i know it’s common to spot but now after three days I’m growing increasingly conc...
Hello all Just out of curiosity, has this happened to anyone else before. Every time I go for a walk down to the shops or to my mums. By the end of the day, I am in extreme pain in my pelvis, grone, lower abs, and lower back area. I find where it's hard to pick my baby up or even get out of bed. I went to the...
