I’m just over 2 weeks PP now and I’m worried about the colour of my bleeding. It’s a very dark brown and has been for about a week now. Also getting a lot of stomach pains especially after eating or drinking. Is the colour normal? When I say dark I mean dark dark brown. TIA

I’ve not really felt my baby kick that much since last night I’m now 41+1 and I’m starting to get major anxiety. What are the chances if I went to the hospital for reduced movements that they’ll keep me in for an induction since I’m so far along?

I’ve been told a few times now during this pregnancy that I more than likely have Diastasis recti due to baby weighing down on my belly so much For those who don’t know what it is, it’s tearing of the lower abdomen during pregnancy It’s not as severe as it probably sounds, no harm to baby but I just wanna know if...

If I put her in a sitting position then, after a fight to get her to bend at the hip, she will sit however it doesn't really last long and she'll go on her tummy instead. When she wants to be upright she'll kneel with her legs in the W position which I know isn't great for them. Technically she's still upright kneel...

Anyone else hit a wall? I’ll be 29 weeks on Sunday but this week has been the longest week ever already. The tiredness has hit x1000 and I literally feel too exhausted to move but I have a 2 year old and 3 year old so it’s business as normal 🙃 Just want to sleep, eat snacks and sleep some more 😴

So it makes me really uncomfortable when people touch my bump, but I feel too shy and nervous to tell someone to get off. I also struggle to say no when someone asks. I know, absolute whimp!

My bloods are due on Monday and I wasn’t planning on testing early but I noticed I had brown blood when I wiped earlier so did a test.

Hi guys, sorry for the detail on a Friday morning but i just wondered if anyone else suffers from random bouts of diarrhoea? I’m 19 weeks and so far I’ve had 4x bouts of aggressive diarrhoea. Sometimes I have been consistently going all week (solid) and it has still occurred but on two occasions I’ve struggled to...

Hi, I woke up this morning… no pain just needed the toilet and I’ve noticed a small amount of blood on my pad… I’ve had small bleeding before but this one was a tiny bit more than the first, I’ve been to get seen for it before and they said to only worry if I’m changing around 3/4 pads of ‘heavy’ blood. I think my b...

As a little girl, like 5 my family went on a vacation one year and got to do an activity with other tourists. I had a dream about a man getting burned in a city night before and told my mom the next morning saying something vague like “I saw a man get burned”, but the dream very detailed, still remember it too. I t...

Please help! My 2 month old has an eye discharge (green) since couple of days after he was born. I asked the pediatrician about it and she said is “ normal”. She said it will go away and is due to his eye tear ducts being so small and not fully developed. Has this happened to your baby????

Hey guys ! My baby turned 1 March 1st and we are still not walking :( anybody in the same boat? How do you encourage them to start walking ? I feel like if I don’t nudge him to start he will go forever without trying lol he has no interest. Wont even stand without holding on to something.
