Being pregnant with a toddler is not for the faint hearted is it?! I’ve got a 16 month-old and am currently 7 weeks pregnant. I do not remember being this exhausted last time. My LG still doesn’t sleep through regularly and the pregnant exhaustion plus the broken sleep are getting to me. Anyone else in the same posi...

I have been looking forward to the long weekend to get some much needed extra sleep and rest but am waking at the crack of dawn every morning as usual and unable to get back to sleep even though I feel really tired. Does anyone have anything that helps them get back to sleep?

I had my first pregnancy about 2 years ago, it was planned and I felt pregnant very early on but I think it was mostly because it was planned and we were hopeful. I want another baby in the future but not any time soon, im on birth control and planning to stay that way for the next few years but my bf and I had sex ...

Like alone, alone. No baby monitor, husband is on the couch with it tending to our teething toddler all night long! Almost feels like a vacation or something. What’s your small win this week?

Been up most the night with stomach and back pain. Gave up trying to sleep at 4 and now on the sofa watching tv feeling sorry for myself. No contractions I don’t think just a constant ache and feel really sick - almost like I’m going to have diahrhea or something as well. Could this be start of labour or stomach...

Anyone else 21 weeks pregnant with their second and working?? I literally hate not being able to spend time with my first baby before the new one comes. And I come home and am absolutely drained.

FTM here, so I am 7 weeks post partum and my periods have returned but it’s soooo heavy. I’ve never lost this much blood before? Is it normal to have heavier periods ?

I don’t know if this might sound crazy but anyone have cravings or super hungry but it’s almost like everything kinda make you sick by thinking about it or by smell .

Hi all, What was your blood loss like after having baby? My baby is going to be 4 weeks old next week and I'm still loosing bright red fresh blood constantly. I've been discharged by the midwife team now as they did a swab and it came back normal. I didn't think I'd still have fresh red bleeding 4 weeks after ...

Why is sleep getting worse!!! Gahhhh 😴😭

I’ve just been to the loo, when I’ve wiped there’s pastel red blood on the tissue, like blood mixed with discharge colour (sorry, TMI), but only when I wipe - anyone else had this? Also did a Pregnancy Test (again!) and had what I think is a dye stealer??

For the last few weeks my bleeding has been light yellow and dying down but suddenly today I’ve started bleeding fresh bright red blood again. Could be my period but I’m breastfeeding and not had any other period symptoms so I doubt it. It’s not a massive amount so I’m not super concerned but has anyone else experie...
