Cyst?

Not a question to do with pregnancy but I’ve got 5 lumps under the skin in my armpit and I’ve never had them before. Just wondering if anyone has ever had this. I’m thinking it could only be from shaving my armpits? Not quite sure what to do or how to get rid of them😩

Low blood pressure

My blood pressure seems to be really low. I keep getting headaches, neck aches and feelings not quite right. I nearly collapsed the other night. Any recommendations on how to raise it slightly? I drink plenty of water and have increased my salt intake.

Kick counts

How’s everyone finding the kick counts/fetal movements? I definitely have days where it’s easy and obvious and others where it’s hard to tell how much they’re moving.
