Community Posts, Tips & Support on Second Trimester

I’m so worried about the first few weeks after the baby will come, my husband is the only support I got and we’re first time parents so no previous experience. I started to prepare some freezer meals and stock up in grocery but don’t know what should i do more to make this time better for all of us

Are there any mommas who can share what this was like for them? My girl is about to turn 6 weeks and I have never felt like more of a failure than I do as a mother. Shes so fussy, fights her sleep… I am changing her formula to nutrimiagen because maybe it’s silent reflux. But I feel so defeated because I’m overwhelm...

Feel like I’m doing everything wrong, I had my 2 week old laying on chest last night and went to sit up, forgot to support his head and his head flipped back and forth and now I’m scared of shaken baby syndrome, he’s been especially fussy today and I’m not sure if it’s related

Hello everyone! I just found out I failed my 3 hr glucose test today and have been officially diagnosed by my OB. I have been crying on and off about it all day 😭😭😭 but I’m grateful to not be alone in this and I hope learn a lot and find solace in this group

Is this normal As a first time mum to be I am always anxious about my baby and if it’s growing and doing well I often get really worried and feel as if I am going to have a miscarriage and get really anxious and my head starts to assume the worst despite only having a scan and baby was happy and healthy a couple o...

I had a horrible time with nausea, vomiting and fatigue during first trimester. It’s now back at 34 weeks. I shouldn’t worry much right? 🤒.

I’m having my first period since giving birth and it’s super heavy and going on 10 days now. They only used to be 4/5 days long. When should I worry?

I had my glucose test today and the results came back with my sugar at 57. Has anyone else dealt with having low blood sugar? I felt absolutely horrible for hours after the test. Any advice is welcome.

Any other mom has like extreme anxiety over RSV.. I keep freaking out because alot of signs are common baby actions or is it just me…😅😅

Well after being a few days late on my period, I took a test and looks like I am pregnant with baby #2!! (almost 8 months postpartum) I have so many feelings. On one hand I’m happy and feel so blessed, and on the other I’m SO nervous, apprehensive, and shocked etc. I’m nervous about how friends and family will reac...

Does anyone know what dates do in pregnancy? I know you’re supposed to have around 6 a day from 36 weeks, but does anyone know what they are supposed to do? Can I start eating them now at 35 weeks?

Is anyone experiencing alot of pressure in there bottom? 37 weeks

Any first time mums who went into labour early 36/37 weeks - what did you feel the 2-3 weeks leading up to it? Anything specially stand out?

This week been testing blood sugars to see if I may have GD as babys tummy is on bigger side, these are my results so far I think they all in normal range but I'm just basing that off Google cause was only told when n how to test so been going in blind pretty much😅

Not finding out… just for fun! I don’t think there is a nub showing but skull theory? Thanks so much for any informed guesses!

Feeling very anxious due to having fluid on baby’s neck and having a high results coming back for my first blood test. I have now had a NIPT test done and waiting on the results in 7 days. It’s consuming me! Just looking for some similar mums out there in the same situation ❤️

I’ve just gone for my first lot of bloods and my glucose drink - they sent me home saying I can wait there instead. But I’ve just been sick from it and have only been able to keep it down for an hour. What do I do??

I have a little boy already and have suffered HG in both pregnancies so I'm really hoping this little one is a girl. Anyone familiar with the nub theory or skull theory. I'm so curious

I’m currently pregnant with my third (I have a 6 yo girl and 3yo boy) and I am scarrrred! I don’t know why I am so nervous for the changes in my body, and with my mental state. We have a mini van, a spare room and we both wanted a third, but the moment the test came up positive OMG I was nervous. How is it going fro...

28 weeks with my second and I’m not sure why but I didn’t realize how much harder subsequent pregnancies would be. My first pregnancy was not bad thank goodness. I had pretty mild issues like heartburn and round ligament pain but WOW this time I feel like I’m falling apart every single time I move or breathe. I’ve b...
