I did have a scan on monday and baby was fine, heard his heartbeat too. But i just feel concerned as to why kicks have gotten less and lighter ??

Had a sweep and was 1cm. Is spotting after a sweep a good sign or the norm?

Hi ladies, I’m 11 +5 weeks today. I normally have dreams prior to pregnancy, but really doubled up after I found out I was pregnant. Sometimes, could be about what was bothering me before I sleep. Sometimes, about having sex with my husband in the dream(I haven’t had much urge to have sex since pregnancy) the mornin...

Hello C section Mama’s, I’m 6 weeks postpartum on Sunday. The last 3 days I’ve noticed I’ve started bleeding again, it was a dark brown and progressed to red and last night it became heavier. Before this my discharge was yellow (known as lochia) with no blood but now it’s like a period. Unsure if it is my period as ...

Has anyone been told at there scans they have ovarian cysts? I have one and it's worrying me as I know nothing about them ... help !!!

I’m 31+3 and I have a decent sized bump, my size 10 normal coat just does up but I think by next week it won’t. I’m a bit loathed to spend money on a maternity coat because once baby is here I won’t have the belly and due to back issues I prob won’t wear him much. I can size up to a 12 but I still don’t know if that...

Morning, I’m currently 10 weeks pregnant and up until last week I had pregnancy symptoms, sore breasts, nausea and bloating but now I have absolutely nothing!

35 weeks and constantly throwing up, back pain and loose stools. Anyone else? My toddler is stroking me after I throw up then pretending to also be sick which is providing me some comfort 😂🙈

Looking for some advice, last month I had reduced movement, I ended up going to hospital and being seen at around 10pm, I was monitored for nearly 2 hours and then sent home, I got home just after midnight. Of course at that point I felt quite worried and struggled to sleep, probably fell asleep at around 1/1:30am. ...

Anyone else had the last few days in a row of major stretching and tenderness? I’m 18 weeks and the last 3 days the stretching has been really uncomfortable, lower back pain, super tender lower belly. Anyone else experiencing this ?

Just a friendly reminder many of us are coming up on the next growth spurt! Hang in there ladies! For those of you already reaching it, how's it going? This one is definitely tougher than the 3 week one for us!

I came on what I thought was my period two days ago however it’s been super super light to the point where I’m taking my tampon out and there is hardly anything there, I wouldn’t say normal period colour either more like towards the end of colour I’m so sorry for posting bu...

I'm pregnant again and feeling anxious that I'm not feeling the same symptoms.

Anyone else dealing or have dealt with restless legs? I deal with this every single night… and it’s ruining my sleep.

I haven't slept at all and now it's almost 8am and it looks like I can only sleep tonight as I can't nap. Baby slept okay with a few waking but I cannot seem to sleep. My body is tired and I was sleepy but for some reason I just couldn't. Please tell me I can survive on no sleep? Only positivity here needed please. ...

I am in so much pain I had pelvis pains with my first but this is so much worse I haven’t slept in days now I constantly have pins and needles in my legs.
