Postpartum Care

I’m aware that this should be an extremely happy and exciting time and at the beginning it was. We told my partners parents the other week after I had a 6w scan and it was perfect and lovely. This week all I have done is cry, for no reason it seems. I feel insecure and sad and lonely and my boyfriend is perfect and ...

Hi all. Looking for some advice. I am a FTM with a 9 week old baby boy. I don’t know if how I’m feeling is very normal or I am moving into the PND area. My baby is generally very good and I have a very supportive husband and family who help out when they can. I find myself crying almost daily, often longing/ missi...

Any tips on how people are handling this?!

Anyone else had this? It's not massive probably like the tip of a ball point pen, but just confused. My incision opened 7w PP, and healed around 14w, so I'm not sure why it's reopened.

I’m 23 weeks pregnant and this week I’ve just been so down, and today I just can’t stop crying. I’m not sure how to snap out of it. I’ve been called as a witness for a trial against my sisters ex (won’t go into it too much) the trial is when my first baby’s first birthday potentially would be. Obviously this is if b...

I’ve had a very very bad morning I’m sleep deprived for 7 months. Baby has never slept through the night and I’m exhausted. I get really bad rage near my periods ever since postpartum but today I can’t snap out of it - help? How can I? I’ve got to the stage I’m punching myself or walls or just throwing crap ag...

What are your tips for living by yourself in a home with two little babies? I have bad anxiety and am out of ideas. I have two security cameras and a ring doorbell. I also have pepper spray and a stun gun.

I am now 4 weeks post partum and last week I’ve started having intrusive thoughts of harming my baby…This makes me heartbroken I’d never do anything to hurt her but I can’t stop having thoughts of severely harming her. I don’t know what to do.

Hi! Can you please share your experiences taking Zoloft post partum? I gave birth 7 months ago, and I'm trying my best to get by every day. But I'm desperate to get this depression in control. Please tell me if it's worth trying. 🙏 Thanks

Hi ladies have you found anything helpful for your legs and bum? I didn’t have this problem before pregnancy so I am not sure what works best to treat it.

You know when you just get to the end of a relationship and you just do not care anymore. You don’t cry, you don’t make effort to speak to them, you don’t care simply. I’m there.

Before I was pregnant I got along with my partners family very well. Their very kind and caring people, never had an issue with them. When I was pregnant, everyone was thrilled bc this is the first baby and my MIL first grandchild so I can understand everyone being so excited. Now that I had my baby, I don’t want an...

I need all the recommendations and the does and don’t! 😢 I feel like I need a bloody wig!

Hello mamas, anyone pregnant with a toddler? My toddler is 20 months currently and I will be giving birth in about 3 months. I am very patient towards my toddler and everything she does, all her lil mischief these days. Now recently I noticed my patient level isn’t the same anymore, I get so frustrated and overwhelm...

When does the pain stop… I waited 6 weeks to have sex after my episiotomy which got infected and opened back up, now has closed by scar tissue forming. I got the all clear at my 6 week checkup so we had sex but I had to stop after like 30 seconds it so so painful 😫 does the pain get any better ?

So I do not speak to my MIL anymore than necessary, we live together for now but barely speak due to her crossing boundaries with my LO too many times. I’m at the point where I’m done with her because we can never see eye to eye. She still constantly wants to be around us because of my LO but is always saying condes...
