Has anyone else noticed after giving birth that there vagina feels a little heavier 🙈 can’t tell if I have a UTI or Thrush but I know I feel different.

Hi everyone, a bit random but just wondering if people have had their nesting instinct kick in? I’m 37 weeks and don’t feel like I have it… that’s not to say our house is a tip or anything 😂 but I don’t feel an ‘urge’ to clean and tidy but do it because I have to. The only thing I’m obsessed with at the moment…

What are you ladies doing to get some relief from your back and legs. I'm in sooo much pain this morning 😌

My baby has a stuffy nose but no boogers? I’ve used saline solution I’ve used the Frida to get them out and an electric suction nose device. Only a little bit of watery mucus comes out but she’s been breathing from her nose for the past couple days pretty stuffy not sure what to do. All advice is welcome and appreci...

How is everybody feeling? What symptoms do you have? X

Hi all 👋🏼 I am due mid May and have three weeks of work left before I come off. I know we can be ‘third trimester tired’, but I feel I have had excessive levels of tiredness I.e. take a shower then could sleep, eat bfast then could sleep. I tried raising it at 34 week app, but got told it’s normal. I suffer with…

Can anybody help me figuring out how to lessen the nausea I am feeling?? This is my second pregnancy and with my first I had no nausea or throwing up. So far with this one I have not thrown up, but I am extremely nauseous.

I haven’t been able to keep breakfast down the past two mornings and dinner the night before. Before it was just bile but now it’s food coming up 🥲 this is roughhhhh. Thought it would get better by now

Last night at 8dpo I got up off of the sofa and felt a painful tug in my lower right side - I’ve had this before which were pregnancies (both losses) so I am wondering if that could of been implantation? No bleeding or anything and negative test at 9dpo this morning - Does anyone have similar positive stories?

I'm 7 weeks pregnant with my first - so excited! However, I am constantly questioning myself with my symptoms! I've had on and off nausea, tiredness but last couple of days, I've felt more or less okay! It makes me worry and question everything. My booking appointment feels ages away yet - has anyone else had simila...

Have any of your LO’s had it and not needed eyedrops? Did it get better by itself? My daughter woke up with it l and I’ve cleaned it how your supposed to, and they’re not really red or swollen, so I don’t want to give drops unless she needs them

Does rolling out of tummy time - belly to back really count as rolling? When baby does manage too, it always seems like an accident as it’s more the weight of his head pulling him over 😂 rather than being intentional if that makes sense! I’m just not convinced by it haha

Anyone else lost all enthusiasm for work since finding out, I’m nearly 9 weeks and haven’t really struggled symptom wise but just find myself every day thinking I can’t be bothered 🙈

I suffered with a really bad hip during pregnancy and although it went away after I gave birth its now back with a vengeance. I also find my knees hurting from getting up and down from the floor and my back kills me by the afternoon! Any recommendations on how I can improve these things, cod liver oil, glucosamine...
