Advice regarding this!!!

So my baby will be 2.5 months now. Off late we have been noticing this on her, as you can see the cloth that was covering it has become yellow due to the fluid it was leaking.

Seeing baby’s movement?

FTM and 23 +3 days pregnant, I can feel a lot of movement but haven’t been able to see anything yet or feel on the outside, is this normal? Keep seeing moms talking about seeing / feeling their baby with their hands at 20+ so wondering if I should be concerned? TIA X

What is this??

FTM here. My daughter has been doing this jerking movement a lot with her head lately…should I be concerned? I can’t tell if it’s just a quirky thing or if it’s more serious like an infantile spasm or neurological thing. Maybe it’s just my mom anxiety. Any ideas?

33 weeks

Experienced mamas, how are you/did you move around at the end? I’m having a TERRIBLE time just getting in and out of bed. Rn I can only sit up for about a hour at a time then I have to lay down. Going to the store has just about stopped all together. 🥲
