So I had a c-section nearly 9 months ago now and not really had many problems. However I’ve woken up today to massive pain at my scar. It’s like a sharp but cramping pain worse than a period cramp. If I thought I could be pregnant then I would have said it’s how my contractions were at the start. The pain isn’t in ...

I’m wondering if anyone has experienced this? I’m 7 weeks and I feel really spaced out, like I’m high lol. I’m not sure if it’s just tiredness. I can’t remember being this tired with my first. I sleep really well but it’s like I’m exhausted!

Currently 16w, had severe cramps last night. Nothing like I’ve ever experienced before. Kept me from sleeping. I had no paracetamol to hand so had to power through. Woke up with milder cramps but still not feeling great. I’ll monitor my pain today and see how I feel. How much pain is still regarded as normal before ...

15dpo. Officially ‘late’ - although my cycle does fluctuate anywhere from 26-32 days. Last night when I went to bed I felt like I had reflux. This morning I’ve woken up with D&V 🤢 I’ve also been congested all week so just in general feel rough. I know I should probably test but I don’t want to be let down 😩

Never feel bad about being doubtful in your baby’s health if you feel a little change in baby’s movements go in!!! i’m 26 + 3 weeks. 3 days ago i felt reduce movements and then i saw fresh red blood when i passed urine. straight away at 1:30am i went to the triage where they decided they were going to admit me to...

I gave birth 2 years ago,got my periods back a year later and I’m having to wear maternity pads for the flow! Been to the docs 3 times 2 different gps , they just keep telling me it’s normal and I’m just over 40 so it’s to be expected at this age. It seriously gushes out when I lie down and wakes me up at night, ma...

Hey mommas I’m currently a FTM 22 weeks tomorrow with my baby girl💕 and my bump was noticeable around 18 weeks and now I feel like I’m big when did you guys start to get big? Can I see your bumps

I have a quick question this might be TMI but I’ll be 22 weeks tomorrow and when I sneeze sometimes (most of the time) I pee a little what does this mean do I have a weak pelvis or is it normal?

I am 36 weeks today and laying in bed trying to go to sleep, I am in so much pain it feels like it would anytime I was about to start my period.

Anyone getting headaches from lack of sleep? I come downstairs from sleeping 8pm to 2-3 am and the red light really bugs my eyes. And I noticed it’s more light induced headaches. Last couple of days maybe I need to drink more water too.

Has anyone also experienced having this infection during birth. I had it and was told I had a “little infection” it wasn’t explained to me and I wasn’t even told the name at the time. Only after making a formal complaint to the hospital (I’m in the proccess of suing for lots of other reasons of birth negligence) h...

What’s everyone’s cravings mine is hash browns with scrambled eggs, hollandaise sauce and ketchup mixed together

She won't go to bed but cries when I put her down and I've been trying for an hour and just wanna eat my dinner. Anyone else feel this?

Does anyone else regularly flick between days where you totally have your sh*t together and feel ‘normal’ physically and mentally and then days where time just seems to disappear, everything aches and you’re so tired and emotional and don’t know how another day has passed or how you’ll do it all again tomorrow? I a...
