My significant other had a dream that I slept with someone aka cheated. His reaction in his dream was that he beat me up really bad after the guy left. When I asked him if that's something you would actually do, he replied that if I ever cheated, he would "beat the fuck out of me." This has been on my mind for th...

Labor?

I’ve been having a tightening sensation in my back and stomach every 1-2 minutes for the past half hour lasting 30 seconds to a minute each.

Struggling to wee 😣

The past few weeks I’ve been really struggling to wee when in need one. It doesn’t feel like a UTI, it almost feels like the baby is blocking my tubes or something, like there’s a plug stopping my wee from coming out & it is SO painful. Sometimes I can be sat on the toilet for a good 5 minutes before anything comes ...

Hi all, I'm 24 hours post emergency c section and I'm in a lot of pain. I can't get in and out of the bed, up out of a chair or even go to the toilet myself.

Gloucester Royal stay and parking

How long do you stay in hospital after giving birth? Do you go home straight after or do you stay in 1 or 2 nights? What does it depend on? I’m not sure how it works! Also, where do you park so you’re not rinsed with parking fees as I’m aware labour can take hours and hours 😳
