I have my belly pierced had it for 8 years but all of a sudden since at 10 weeks my inner belly button is red/pink but it is not sore. Has anyone else experienced this? I have taken my belly bar out

Looking at statistics it says between 15-25% of women do. Feel free to share stories to encourage others who may be going through it.

I’m 35 weeks and I’ve been getting the worst reflux especially at night to the point when I lay down I’m literally sick in my mouth and it’s just going up and down all night it’s awful 😭😭 rennies aren’t cutting it anymore

My LO is just over 6 months old and still hasn’t rolled over. She is my first baby so unsure if I should be concerned by this. She is sitting well unaided and will roll onto her side but doesn’t seem to be able to or want to roll onto her tummy at all. Is this normal or should I be concerned? Thank you!

When did you feel your baby move in your 3rd pregnancy? I'm 15+3 and i can feel so many movements! Is this normal? 😅

Does anyone else also feel like you’d be eating more if the food was being made for you? Thinking of what I even *want* to eat, getting the items and making it - I’ve had enough of that 🤣 I need a chef haha!

I’m 35 weeks pregnant and dread going into bed. Because I’m so uncomfortable and in so much pain. My hips and pelvis hurt so much. I’m getting about 3 hours a night. I just can’t get comfortable and going to the toilet about 5/6 times and feel so sick. Anyone else feeling like this?

We’re 1 week into 4 months and it’s floored me. I haven’t showered all week or washed my hair! I’m hanging on mentally by a thread! My baby just will not be put down but equally doesn’t want to do anything. No activity lasts more than 2 minutes without a total meltdown. Bed time is taking 3hrs ish for her to fall a...

I stay in pain like crying pain from acid reflux it feels like I’m drinking acid and it feels like air is trapped in my stomach but I can never burp it out is this something normal or should I worry

Hi, just looking for some advice really. It’s been 6 weeks of rough sleep with the 4 month regression and I’m feeling really run down. I don’t know if this makes a difference but I exclusively breastfeed so I do all the night wakings. For the last week I’ve felt constantly nauseous and weak, I think I’ve just reache...

My precious girl was born on Thursday the 16th January! I had lots of labour symptoms for around a month before she was born! Started bleeding and having bad back pain on Monday and hospital sent me home, went back on Tuesday and they sent me home again even after saying I had reduced movements. Booked me for an ...

I've been really holding onto the fact it gets easier but at 4.5 nearly 5 months I just find my LO harder than ever I feel a lot more tired (not sleeping through) and he just seems to cry even more. I assume teething etc so I do feel bad but so many people said after 3 months it gets so much easier and I'm just not ...

Someone please tell me increased movement can be a sign of labour coming? Im so uncomfortable and sick of being pregnant, and she’s decided to start a boxing match with my ribcage and just won’t stop! Can increased movement mean something is going to happen soon?

Any one else exhausted 4.5 months in or is it just me? I thought I would feel like this at the newborn stage!

If you’ve had mastitis, what were your symptoms?! A bit of context: On Friday, I went to A&E (phoned 111 and they told me to go to my GP but the GP told me to go straight to A&E) with suspected mastitis and sepsis. I was shaking uncontrollably, freezing cold, felt sick, felt like I was going to faint, head felt ...

I have this niggling pain on my right hand side above my bum. Anyone else has this?

Had a migraine for 2 days now and it is not going, anyone else’s heads hurting?🥲

I remember waking up one day & deciding I didn't want to live like that. I didn't want to struggle financially. I didn't want to play computer games 247. I didn't want negative people in my life. I made a lot of changes & live a totally different life now. I was hungry. Ever felt something like that?

Anyone trying to take full advantage of their nesting energy? 🤣 I've been in a depressed rut for a year and a half but I'm now in the mood to de-clutter my whole house and decorate for Valentine's Day. ❤

So I went to the doctor the other day because I have been having some heavy bleeding after I got my tubes tied. Which I later found out that most people have heavier period after they have that done, not realizing that I already had that problem. So I’m trying to figure out my issue I found out that my uterus is sti...
