I had my anatomy scan today and they said I have placenta previa. I’ve had no bleeding or cramping so far. From what I read 90% of cases resolve themselves but I’m hesitant to keep being active like walking my dog and yoga. Does anyone have experience with this?
Hey July mamas! With my due date coming up, I’m obviously very excited to open this new chapter of my life. But, I am also so afraid. I am 21 years old and this is my first baby. Of course, I’m nervous for child birth but that’s not the only thing. I’m scared of losing myself. I’m scared of not getting my body...
Does anyone have days where their stomach is so sore it feels like you're basically being ripped in two? I'm definitely hitting a rapid growth phase, and it doesn't help pgp/spd is starting to act up really bad. 😩 3rd trimester sucks, i couldn't even walk around for an hour without it putting me out for the rest of…
I’m approaching 30 weeks pregnant and I just feel like I can’t anymore. My belly was measured in the 97th percentile and I’m feeling HUGE. My body is sore, I am getting real tired, and all this while I’m chasing after my 2.5 year old attempting to potty train her (FYI it’s not going well). I feel so achey. I’m so u...
Can anyone tell if it's pink or blue?
This to some people may seem really daft…I go on holiday soon when I’ll be about 10 weeks pregnant but so nervous about my body confidence during the day! I’m bloated massively and obviously don’t look pregnant I just feel like I look overweight! I’m already struggling a bit even around just my partner to accept tha...
Its time to go back to work after a vacay, and baby grl decided to pop through vacay, and i can no longer hide it anymore. Today im going to get hit with many questions. I hid it because its just a culture thing to not say it so early. It gives Me anxiety. I dont like to Be questioned. How do I deal with this?
Nub theory - what we thinking? 😅😍
she did cry out eventually but not that newborn cry. She’s okay now and safe in my arms but that nagging feeling of whether it’s indicative of something still bugs me. i’m highly anxious so i’m a little scared. Anyone had similar experience? i gave birth naturally with epidural in case anyone is wondering.
This is my first baby and I’m becoming more and more nervous about the birth, I keep telling myself this is what our bodies are built for but I’m so petrified of the unknown. Has anyone got any tips or advice?
has anyone ever had a plgf test and gotten 80? and has it gotten worse quick or stayed the same? i’m only 33w
After a generally okay pregnancy I’m now finding it really hard 😭 I’m 34 weeks today and can’t imagine another 6 weeks of this! I’m so uncomfortable in every position, the heartburn is ridiculous, I’m starting to get short of breath and everything just feels so difficult 😭 I use to be someone that lovedddd to sleep…
Hi, I’m 2 weeks pp & EBF - when is a good time to start expressing?? Xx
Hi, I have no appointments now until 28 weeks with the midwife, do you get a letter for the glucose test or vaccines or what? (QEQM) I had my first child in Ireland and was different, I’m not sure what to expect.
Had an absolute mare today with being up hospital due to reduced movement. Found out today that I should have been flagged for high risk pregnancy from the beginning due to having a high BMI….. so from 12 weeks I should have been on aspirin and also should have been given my gestational diabetes test (again, haven...

I really do not understand the nun theory. Any guesses please. 12 weeks + 4. Can’t wait to find out what we are having ✨
I’m three months postpartum and just wondered if anyone else felt the same. I’m on the mini pill never been on contraception before so I’ve only been on the mini pill for three weeks and I’ve had my first period I don’t know if this relates to it or not but I just feel like I’m starving all the time. I’ve also got p...
Love to know how early everyone tested and what their symptoms were?
Did anyone experience being Out of breath the very first few weeks of finding out they are pregnant? I don’t know rather to be concerned or not, I’ve never been out of breath in my past pregnancy’s especially early on. I have a past of an ectopic so I get nervous about everything, I haven’t had my 1st appt yet as I ...
