Hi all! I work in an office and am finding it uncomfortable to be sitting down all day at my desk. I have to keep getting up every 20 mins to walk around. I’ve ordered a cushion from amazon to see if that helps. I’m only 20 + 4 days pregnant. Is anyone else finding this or just me?

I’m 34 weeks tomorrow. I have been cramping and having contractions for the past week. They ease up sometimes but will have hours where I can’t do anything.

Has anybody experienced a reduction in movement at 40 weeks? I’m 39+6 and have been used to my baby being very active in pregnancy. For the last couple of days though, her movement has slowed right down. Not sure if it is because she has dropped so low down and I’m not noticing the movement so much (now she’s no lon...
