Feel Terrible

I just woke up with the baby tucked into my body, flipped her off me so quick and she is fine. I think l fell asleep burping her. We're cosleeping because it's the only way she'll sleep not on me.

I had literally 3 spots of vivid red blood on Monday and then a little blob of darker almost brown today. I turn 38 weeks tomorrow so if it's a sign of impending labour I'm not too worried but my Google search is giving me really mixed messages on whether I should be concerned or not. I've read articles that says it...

No idea how to word title, please read the post! Thank you x

Anyway according to certain developmental apps were told to base them off babies due date. So is she technically 1 week off 6 months or still 3 weeks away? Asking in regar...

Glucose tolerance test

Hello, mommy friends. Who's taken their glucose tolerance test? I'm here for the 3 hour test now. 🙄 I was hoping to pass the one hour test. Unfortunately, I did not. This is my 4th pregnancy, and each time, I always fail the one hour test.

I am gearing up for my third embryo transfer in January and I am looking into further testing before this goes ahead.

If so, di...

At what point would you tell work you’re pregnant?

This is my first baby and I am only 5 weeks pregnant. I have a very good relationship with my direct line manager. It’s obviously very early but they’re making all sorts of plans for me next summer and I feel a bit bad sitting in these meetings knowing I’m not going to be there. I could tell my line manager only and...
