Community Posts, Tips & Support on Pregnancy Symptoms

Pleaseee tell me someone else is still being sick?? I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and still being sick at least two a day.

Did anyone start having menstrual like cramps right before labor? Or be so sore it hurts to move?

I want to be smelling nice but I feel like I 'pinch' my perfumes as I only top up a few times a year. Also, please share your fave scents, bonus points if you have any tips for making your fave scents last longer throughout the day😊✨

I should be 6+4 and have literally ZERO symptoms, should I be concerned? I have a scan on Monday to confirm viability and gestation

37W3D - Since 2am yesterday having very intermittent (every 2-3hrly) severe lower back and abdo pain on right side…. Not sure if should get it checked

Hi all! I have a question. I’ve felt baby move daily since I was like 18 weeks (she’s my second), but today I’ve noticed her movement is pretty low. She’s moving a ton now, it feels like really low in my pelvis, but I never experienced this with my first. I have an anterior placenta this time, and I’m slightly overw...

Anyone else constantly tired and made to feel lazy?

Has anyone ever had brown spotting in early pregnancy and everything turned out okay? It’s not enough to fill a pad and it’s very sporadic. I had it for a few days before my missed period, and again now at almost 5 weeks. I did have a tiny bit of pink spotting when wiping yesterday but nothing since. This is my thir...

Need to know if this is just me?! Gave labour a few days ago, needed an episiotomy and was completely numb from the waist down with a spine block. It’s obviously very sore down there with the episiotomy stitching too and my rectum looks unrecognisable with big lumps 😓 Anyone else experienced this and is there…

pregnancy is a beautiful thing, and honestly i’ve enjoyed it so much and i haven’t even really been THAT uncomfortable. there were tons of ups and down moments but overall, hasnt been the worst thing i’ve ever gone through. but these last 5 weeks are brutal!! i’m in so much pain, im exhausted, im moody, and i’m so o...

Silly question, anyone here who’s had a baby before, I’m guessing you know a contraction pain from a random shooting pain or cramp?

I'm almost 11 weeks and my right leg has been killing me. I'm waiting to hear back from my doctor about it. I've been massaging it and it's been working a little. Google has me feeling like I'm having a stroke or something. I don't remember experiencing anything like this my first pregnancy.

Is anyone else’s upper stomach more swollen/bloated than their lower stomach?

I'm posting incognito since I just took a test yesterday that was positive. Any advice for morning sickness? With my first I never had it and I was still hungry most of the pregnancy. I'm a few weeks late (I just went on a vacation so I had thought if could be stress that delayed my period, bit I took a test before...

Has anyone had acid reflux at 9 weeks? I’ve been suffering with it and can’t tell if it’s a pregnancy symptom or not this early

30 weeks

I am pregnant with my second and I’ve had extreme nausea (all day and night) since 6 weeks. I have cyclizine and Prochlorperazine but they aren’t helping at all.I’m not actually physically sick but can’t function already and I have to keep this from my work for at least 6 weeks to not jeopardise a promotion. So my q...

I'm 31 weeks pregnant and can barely stand for more than 10 minutes without my knees and ankles hurting so bad and feeling like they're on fire. Do compression socks actually help with the pain? I never needed them with my last 2 pregnancies but this is also the most I've ever weighed 😅
