May 2026 babies 🇬🇧

TW I will be speaking about stretch marks

Sooo…. I noticed my first stretch marks and I know I shouldn’t be feeling bad about it but I do 😓 it’s shattered my self esteem completely. Ladies do they actually ever go away any recommended creams or oils ? I’m struggling here already 🥲

Hey all! I had a history of carpel tunnel syndrome (numb hands and wrists) before pregnancy and since 31 weeks ish it’s started to flare up. Mostly in the mornings, when driving the car or sat with my arms by my sides.

Anyone else? Apparently it’s very common in 3rd trimester with 60% of women having some type of symptom of it?

I’ve been to the midwife and gp and they just recommend moving it and doing physio but it’s really painful!!

My son is due in 6 weeks and i have no name for him :(

Anyone have any recommendations on belly support bands to help with low back pain? Preferably not costing a fortune 🙈

I am 32 weeks pregnant with my second child (my son is 2), and I’m just over being pregnant 😫 I’m so tired all the time, I have gestational diabetes and they keep increasing my insulin as my readings keep getting higher and I feel dreadful! I’m working full time and it’s such a busy time at work with lots of deadlines. I have horrendous sciatica pain and can’t walk or sit or lay in bed without being in pain. We are buying a house and that is in its very nature just stressful.

I’m not looking for any advice as such, just having a big fat moan haha!!! I just want baby here already and to be on mat leave and for everyone to leave me alone haha!
