Hi all, I have an 11 month old not pregnant but for fun what sibling names would you pair with it? Boys and girls. I love nature based and literary names with strong name meanings, my partner is more traditional so it has to pass his veto test lol.

12 week scan

I’m 39+5 and the last couple of days I’ve been having to go to the toilet more and I’m clearing myself out quite a bit. As of yesterday and today, I’ve been nonstop feeling sick. I have quite a bit of back pain and haven’t lost my mucus plug or had a bloody show yet though. I know this can be a sign of labour com...

Has anyone booked a early scan? As I did and turns out I'm having twins! I'm still in shock and I'm really scared.

Feeling a bit bored and like I'm counting down to nap time sometimes or like I'm waiting for adult company too 😂 so looking to see what sort of things everyone else does x

So I know this group is for mamas in their 30's. I'm 29 (30 in 3ish months) and want to do something special for myself. The only thing is, I have absolutely no clue what to do other than maybe a photoshoot. Please help! I've never really done anything for my special day other than eat with family. I can't and won't...

Just tryna see something here: A while ago I cut contact with a “friend” of my partner and I (long story but mainly boundaries being overstepped) he still speaks to them sometimes, I do not. Let’s call them ‘friend A’. Friend A and her husband introduced us to some friends of theirs around a couple of years ago a...

Just found out I am pregnant after 3 miscarriages. Trying to stay positive. 🤞

Hiiii, can anybody explain percentiles to me and what they mean? I was measuring small by my midwife on Wednesday below the 1st percentile to be exact, so I was worried. However, I went for a scan yesterday and they seemed happy with my baby’s measurements and said she was at the 45th percentile. FYI my gestation ...

Please share your stories of being induced (positive only). Do you have to stay in hospital until labour or can I go home?

Currently 28 weeks with my second. Am feeling much more unorganised this time round, I'd already done the nursery and washed all the clothes by now in my first pregnancy. I still have the next2me, pushchair, play mat, bouncer but they're stored at our house and some at my mums. I have done nothing! I've not ev...

Does anyone else have a huge baby??? My little boy is nearly 17lb and he’s just under 5 months! He’s so ready to go into 6-9 clothes but I’m scared because he’s not baby anymore

Morning Please can I ask what you’re offering as snacks in lieu of x2 bottles? Someone has said 1 sweet 1 savoury. I’ve done things like - Wafers Multigrain hoops Rice cakes Banana Grapes Cheese But feel I need to step it up a bit!

How is everyone tracking their baby's movements so that you know their pattern. I know that usually baby kicks more in the morning and evening. Do I need to be more specific about this? Like times and amounts of kicks? Thank you 😁

Anyone else really constipated? My butt is literally bleeding when I wipe from straining. It's uncomfortable. I'm 12 weeks 2 days today. Any advice I truly appreciate.

Is anyone else experiencing a really achy vagina?
