I've had some symptoms, breast pain, some brown spotting, and a pinching sensation about 5 days ago. Feeling a little windy, tired and had some diarrhea today sorry for the tmi

I am 17 weeks with my second baby and for the last week or so, every time I sneeze I wee a tiny bit. I was quite ‘on it’ with my pelvic floor exercises after my first and haven’t had any issues - wondering if this is just because baby is putting pressure on my bladder/everything is relaxing?

Would you think this is implantation bleeding? I’ve had spotting twice.. last night & tonight . I am 11months pp, breast feeding but have not had my period yet. Pics in comments.

Yesterday and today I have had really bad pain in my shins at the front. There no swelling, hear or redness. Unsure what it is, but it hurts to walk up stairs and to stand at all. Any advice on what to do would be helpful please.

16 weeks pregnant, 3 hours away from home visiting family. Not going to be home for another 48hrs. 2 days ago my cousin showing off his new tesla took us for a little ride. I didn't know it would be soo fast but going about 10mph he showed us how fast it could go. It was fast and very fast very quickly, practically...

Is it normal to stop bleeding with a subchorionic hematoma then start spotting again a few days later?

hey mamas! lately at night, my girl (4/9) is becoming inconsolable sometimes. we cosleep, and sometimes she will start crying hysterically, eyes completely closed and then won’t take a paci or nurse, and trying either makes her cry harder. i’ve noticed by just riding it out that she will eventually just calm to whim...

Ok I’m sorry for the TMI, this is my third pregnancy but second baby, we sadly suffered a loss at the beginning of this year. For the last 5 days I’ve had the worst diarrhoea, and this isn’t something I experienced with my first baby. I thought maybe I had a stomach bug as my son had a dodgy tummy so I didn’t eat fo...

I’m currently 21 weeks pregnant, I’m also plus size, and I feel like I can’t even see a pregnancy bump. The top of my stomach is firm but the bottom is still loose like it was before, I’m pregnant with a boy, so I should be carrying low, but I feel like I just literally don’t have a pregnancy bump. Is this normal?

Anyone else experience the stomach flu while pregnant and with a young baby. I was up all night puking and am struggling with that and body aches. Anytime I eat I just can’t keep it down. I will have no help today until 8 at night. We have no family near by and I want to cry thinking of my day. I feel so awful, am 1...

Does anyone else feel baby pushing down in their cervix. I can feel their feet on my ribs pushing down into my pelvis. Sometimes I feel like their fingers are scratching my cervix

What positions r ok and safe for the baby and me to partake in? Also is finger action safe / self pleasure ? Thanks in advance just want this baby boy...

Bit upset and wanted some help rationalising to put it past me. Yesterday my MIL gave the tiniest bit of low calorie ice cream from the tip of her finger to my nearly 5mo little girl. I had said I was excited to wean her on foods when we came back from holiday. Excited to give her first... She probably didn't mean ...

I’ve been having diarrhoea since Friday I’m worried something is wrong, most have constipation. Unless it’s my IBS causing it because I’m stressed. Is anyone else having diarrhoea?

What symptoms are everyone having? Mine are sore heavy boobs, cramps, headaches, tired, achy legs, peeing a lot, hungry, that’s so far.

When did you get your baby’s first pair of shoes? Is it not until they are walking?

33 weeks plus 2, I have been feeling the baby kick really well, but since yesterday not as much movement, their has been but not as much as before? First pregnancy.

Any tips on easing the back to work guilt/anxiety?? Last day off today and cried already…really struggling 😢

So I’m 32+5 weeks pregnant. I feel over the last 3 weeks like my bump isn’t changing / growing. When I see people from week to week they say that I’m definitely growing but I really don’t feel it. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?
