Has anybody symptoms went away?

In the night and again this evening i’ve felt sudden pressure on my cervix, almost like baby is headbutting it trying to get out 🫣 it’s a really sudden, short lived pain but definitely makes me brace/doubles me over for a split second.

This will be my second baby and for whatever reason since being pregnant, sometimes when I sneeze or cough, I wee a little bit.

Keep getting cramps in one leg at night and can’t sleep, anyone else?

Hey all, just turned 9 weeks and I am so incredibly exhausted. This is my second and I definitely didn’t feel this tired with my first. Anyone else in the same boat?

Anyone else absolutely shattered? For the last three weeks my baby has been waking up every hour (increases to every half hour from about 4am.) I haven't had longer than a 45 minute stretch of sleep in so long. No one seems to understand this level of fatigue... I just get met with "yeah it's common to feel tired wi...

When did everyone else bump start to show? I'm 21 weeks size 16/18 and still haven't really got a bump😖 it's starting to get me down seeing other women's bumps at 21 weeks and people commenting that I'm now showing yet!

I’ll be 21 weeks tomorrow- in the past two weeks I’ve had what feels like medium intensity period cramping (like a contraction) for a minute or two about 4 times so far. Every few days I seem to have a moment where I have an intense period cramp feeling. Is this similar to others Braxton hicks experiences? It’s my ...
