My daughter has been doing a lot what I would call squats… like back to back. How soon do yall think she’ll be walking? She’s starting to cruise more as well. She can walk assisted from one of the house to the other.

I’m having pretty intense cramping, feels identical to period cramps and loose stools. I’m not super concerned but pregnancy is weird lol so i guess I’m just wondering if it’s worth calling my doctor about or if it’s normal ? Currently 33w3d

I’m 8 weeks pregnant and for the past two days I’ve had this abdominal and back pain that’s like a really deep aching feel. It’s bad enough to have stopped me going to work and doing anything but lay on the sofa. I don’t have any bleeding and this is the furthest I’ve gotten in pregnancy after 4 miscarriages. Lookin...

Did anyone feel ALOT of movement one week and then the next barely anything ? One thing I don’t like about being pregnant is not knowing what’s going on inside I felt my baby kick maybe once or twice but not as much as she did last week

I have a small living room with lots of toys. My 2 year old likes to get all his toys out and throw them all over. Currently my 6 month old is in his bouncer but I feel like it’s stopping his development. He can roll but can’t go back and I’m worried this is because he’s always in his bouncer. My toddler doesn’t nap...

I am 37 weeks and have been having period like pains on and off for the last 3 days in my back and stomach. With the urge to go to the toilet but don’t need to go. The pressure is intense but then will just stop again. Has anyone else had this?

I get so exhausted & lazy, I feel bad when I don’t:

Does it ever get better!? I have a 3 year old who is super full in. And my twins are on completely different routines no matter what I try. Most days it’s 1 in 1 out for naps so I get no time to myself at all until 20:30, and then it’s shower, clean up everything and bed. I am just dying inside from exhaustion

Anyone had some strong cramps that last 10 minutes or so? I woke up at 3am with some but then went away after 10 minutes. Also had some after sex which I’ve read is normal. Got another lot today but then it goes once I start walking. I have also been a bit constipated (sorry if TMI) so I don’t know if that’s a facto...

Had anyone felt like there going to start there period but been pregnant? I'm due the 16th and I've got the cramps but my boobs hurt witch is abnormal for me ?

Hi, a little tmi however I was wondering if anyone has experience pink / red discharge between 9-11 weeks of their pregnancy? I’m currently experiencing it every 3 days or so not all day but every so often, I’ve rang & been booked in for an early scan than my dating on Tuesday but seeing if anyone else experience th...

Has anyone else felt like they have a UTI in the really early stages of pregnancy? I’m 4 weeks and it feels like I’m getting a UTI, it’s really uncomfortable. Is this normal? Or should I be worried?

Being woke means calling out someone creepy who gets off on treating you in abusive ways

I’m almost 17 weeks and have had sickness off and on since 13 weeks… more commonly at night time, it’s horrible as my food hasn’t even touched my stomach yet and it’s coming back up projectile… anyone had this! Is it normal? Some weeks I won’t even have one spell of sickness 😌

anyone else been prescribed metoclopramide for sickness? i’ve been prescribed it today as well as bed rest due to not being able to eat or manage fluids and wondering it anyone felt it benefitted them? i had really bad sickness with my first but i didn’t need to take anything for it😪

Yesterday and today I’ve had some sudden sharp pains in one really specific area of my tummy/uterus on the right side. It comes and goes lasting for a second at a time then it goes and might come back in a minute or 10 mins or an hour lol. Random. I’m stilling still when I notice it so I don’t think it’s ligament p...

I feel like I just spend all my time cleaning or preparing things for baby. Now she is eating more that takes up more time as well. How do you fit plans in around feeding and naps? I feel like I hardly leave the house at the moment.

How is everyone getting bogies out? I’ve tried the snot sucker but little man just gets so upset with is and tbh I get so out of breath hahahah

Bump dropped ages ago, had period like cramps for weeks, had the bad stomach, had all the ‘signs’ people look out for and still nothing 🫠 I read all the posts about people listing their symptoms saying ‘oh this could be it!’ and now laugh because it probably isn’t (sorry guys, us overdue girls are bitter now!) I…

Hi all i’m just looking for advice really. So for the last 2 weeks i’ve felt my baby move around 5/6 times which isn’t normal at all considering baby never stopped moving, i know this can just be them dropping and having less room but surely 6 times in 2 weeks isn’t normal?? I do have to go to the hospital everyda...
