Bump Names 🥰

So when expecting my sweet gem of a son, he would bounce around a lot like Tigger. Hence, the nickname: Tiggy 🐯🩵 👑 This time it’s Princess 🩷 Would love to know what you’re calling your baby bumps & whether you’ve thought of names 🫶🏻

What does it mean when you get shooting pains all in between your legs when you try and walk? Is it PGP or because baby's head is so low now?

I can't describe exactly where the shooting pains are, it's just all in between legs, not sure if it's nerves/joints or what

Jumped up percentile

At my midwife appointment at 38 weeks, fundal measurements have jumped from around 20th percentile to 50th percentile. I’ve been booked in for a growth scan tomorrow. Is this anything to worry about, or know what could cause it? Baby has been really consistently growing until this week.

In-laws calling your baby, ‘our baby’. I’m 21 weeks pregnant.

My in laws call our unborn baby, our baby, and for some reason it’s gripes me. Unless you were involved in the conception… it ain’t your baby!
