Hi, any ladies who have delivered on the Swan ward at Warwick hospital - could you please let me know if your partner was allowed to stay with you overnight. I looked online I saw they have to leave after 9pm but just wanted to check as realistically I want him to stay🙏💕

I've just found out I'm pregnant after missing my period but having cramps in lower belly and above belly button.. is this normal? Or could this be uti as I also have burning sensation when I wee (sometimes)

I’m 18 weeks and have no contact details for her; I’ve seen her once. She calls me from an unknown number but not sure if it’s normal or not! Who do I contact if I need help?

Hi. Recently found out I’m having a baby boy. Please share some baby boy names as finding it so hard. Thank you ☺️

12wk scan yesterday measuring. 12+6. Anyone guess the gender?? We will find out in 3 weeks🥹

Has anyone experienced this and still been pregnant? I feel absolutely gutted 😣 trying not to let it get to me since period isn’t due for 3 days

What stage did everyone’s symptoms start? I am 5 weeks and currently nothing but with my first they started from 4.5. I know everyone is different but I can’t help but worry

i’ve booked a private scan to check on baby as my medication can slow down growth but i’m so curious how big she’ll look🥹 bonus points for 4D view!! (although i know she’ll still look weird at this point lol)

Hi girlies, Just wondered if anyone has experience the same thing, I told my midwife and she said just monitor it. Basically I've been having brown spotting (like 4 spots max a day) this is my 2nd day of it. I'm 6 weeks and 2 days pregnant.

I am 6 weeks pp and just wondering when do you start coming out of autopilot mode? I feel literally brain (and heart) dead, surviving every day like a robot. I want to have my life back at least to some extent. But I have no capacity to think or feel. I stay inside the house for days simply because going out with t...

During my first pregnancy i had a planned c-section that went so good, from the beginning throughout the recovery, nothing to complain about. I am pregnant again, and from the first day i knew about it i already made up my mind about another c-section. Now i am 22 weeks pregnant and i am starting to really struggle ...

Hey!! I’ve carried on working out all the way through my pregnancy and recently I feel mean to baby boy to keep jumping during my hiit workouts! So burpees, squat jumps etc! They feel okay to me but should I just take it easier? Also last 2 bootcamp sessions I haven’t done the sprint finishers, one cause my bladder ...

Lower back pain and pain in my left side… is this okay?

I’m 26+2 today and woke up feeling so deflated, so down & tired and have no idea where this has come from.. past week I’ve had so much energy and felt so good and motivated. Anyone else getting days like this? Even putting socks on just feels a struggle today 😫
