Pain towards left lower abdomen
I am 4w4d with baby#1. I am having a mild but noticeable pain in lower abdomen towards left side. I know I ovulated from left ovary as I did a follicular scan this cycle. Has anyone had this? Is this common?

Struggling to sleep on side
Anyone else having problems sleeping on their side? I keep getting a numb/tingling leg on my outer thigh and have to change position every hour which is exhausting me cause once I move I then get Braxton hicks lol. I had a Google and apparently it’s something named this. It’s on both sides and it’s ok in the day whe...
Over being pregnant
Is anyone just over being pregnant? I’m only 32 weeks but I’m so ready for baby to come already. I have a very active one year old and I’m just exhausted and uncomfortable all of the time. I feel guilty sometimes because of course I want him to grow and be healthy but June just isn’t coming fast enough for me.
Based off cravings what do you think I’m having?
Cake, cookies, cupcakes, wings, and mozzarella sticks, and chocolate milk.
Anyone else developed car sickness since pregnancy?
Basically that. I never ever used to get car or motion nausea and since I had baby I get it bad 😫🤢
Nausea has arrived
5w4d and I’ve had an increase in nausea the last couple days, really having to stay on top of eating regularly. Anyone else? Also, I’d be curious to hear when this started and ended for you in your last pregnancy

Random crying
Has anyone else’s LO started randomly crying and is inconsolable everyday at the same time?! She just turned 6 months last week and it’s been ever since then. She’s not tired, hungry and has a clean diaper. #sos bc I work from home and it’s a struggle!

Incredibly lethargic
Has anyone experienced terrible tiredness where you could just sleep anywhere. I think I might be anaemic but not sure - thanks.
Struggle sleeping
Anyone had any issues with sleeping due to breathing!? So I’m 36 years old, and 34.5 weeks pregnant with my second baby. I never had this issue with my first and I put on the same weight, I’ve gained like 4 stone which sounds a lot! And it feels a lot! Everyone keeps telling me I look fine, and I don’t feel too bad....
Don’t you hate it when things just fall into your shopping cart?

Baby movements - overweight Mama!
I’m currently 18 weeks pregnant and have yet to feel baby move. I’m only 5ft 2 and am nearly 14 stone so am well aware I’m overweight. Do we think me not feeling baby is just because of my weight or should I be worried? Previously lost a baby at 22 weeks so am very anxious!
