Hi all, Do I need to book with the GP for their 6 weeks health check or do I get automatically notified?
I’m 32 weeks and have had rescued movements twice in the last 3 weeks. I went to triage last night and the hooked me up to the monitor, they said the results were fine but I raised that for my babies pattern, it still wasn’t normal. When I got home I had a call from triage to say actually I needed to come back tomor...
I’m 38+5 and babies still not engaged into the pelvis so they couldn’t do a sweep. So gutted I cried I just want a vbac
Why can I see a line?! I’m only 8dpo so I know I’m utterly dumb to be testing. Can anyone else see this? Taken within the time frame. Tia

For the last week I’ve been on off having the feeling like my period is about to start. I’m almost 33 weeks so obvs that’s not about to happen 🤣 but I’m just curious is that braxton hicks?

My new baby but stuck on a name :( x x
