39 weeks pregnant, woke up at 5 not being able to breathe good. I have no pain but do feel nauseous when I try to take deep breaths in. It also triggers my anxiety a little bit. What should I do ? Any advice

For the last week or two I’ve been struggling so badly with constant pain in my ribs really high up.

This is my second baby so not sure if this is why, but I have extreme pelvic pressure if I stand up for too long. It tends to be worse if I’m stood still, if I’m not moving for 30 seconds then I just feel so much pressure like the baby is just going to drop out 😂 I definitely didn’t have this with my first &…

I am currently 34 weeks pregnant and I am absolutely petrified of dying during child birth for some reason I am always full of anxiety and think the worst! How’s everyone else feeling?

We always thought we would wait until 12 weeks but I feel support is sometimes needed in the first trimester . We are having an early scan at 8 weeks

I’m due to have my second in a couple of weeks. I’m just looking for some advice from those who have had their second already. Are there any essentials that you use a lot or anything that you bought for the newborn/June 23 baby that you would recommend? I’m starting to panic a bit now!

So I’m 11 mo PP and I’ve missed my period for 2 months in a row. I’m not pregnant (tested myself and went to my OBGYN to confirm). I had gotten it back in November, December, and February…obviously I’m sure it’s just a hormonal imbalance, but my husband and I want to start trying for baby #2 and I’m getting discoura...

I had an aversion to water all through my first trimester (water made me nauseous and vomit), and the aversion came back in the third trimester 😩 I HATE water right now. Adding lemon and electrolytes gives me severe heartburn so that doesn't help. 39 weeks and ready to meet this baby 😭

Hi guys this sounds so stupid but I’m curious what way everyone else is doing it. Obviously there isn’t an even number of weeks in every month so. When my baby was 16 weeks I considered him four months but really he was born on the 5th which is a week and a half later. So my question is would you say your baby was f...
