What contraception method has everyone chosen or got on best with after having a baby? I was on the combined pill for over 12 years before I stopped to get pregnant and found this worked well for me. I've got my 8 week appointment this week and know this is my opportunity to discuss contraception methods. I am keen...

Hi, I’ve just been told from my 12 week scan that I have low PAPP-A at 0.29. They have prescribed me aspirin but the doctors are taking ages to sort my prescription. Do you know if I can just buy it in a shop or over the counter? And is there a specific version I need? I’m so worried about taking the wrong thing b...

Has anyone tried both ? Which do you prefer and why ? I’ve been on the combined pill for a long time with breaks here and there , when taking breaks for a few months my moods are better and my blood pressure is lower but I need to go back on to contraception wondering if the mini pill would be any better for me .

Hey! I’ve started today taking Setraline for my anxiety which is really disrupting my life, however I haven’t heard much positiveness on this and it’s making my anxiety creep up, is there anyone here who is taking or taken them and has a good background story on this? I know it’s different for everyone else and I to...

Hey! So I’ve just had my second baby, and am not ready for a third, so I really need to go on birth control. I used to track my cycle, but it didn’t work out very well 🤣 I really wanted something non hormonal. Does anybody have any experience and could recommend something? Thank yoou 🤗

We’re looking into air purifiers. Which ones do yall recommend? It would be for our bedroom and then his when he transitions out. I have a few in mind but not sure which one to get.

Hello what has everyone done to help regulate your period? I know birth control can help, just personally I am not a huge fan of hormonal birth control and all the side effects/possible side effects. What did your ob-gyn suggest? I am genuinely jjst curious. Also I am aware not everything works the same and the best...

Hi everyone, would you mind sharing your experiences with different forms of birth control? I already struggle with acne and my weight and am cautious that lots of them can have an affect on this. I previously had copper coil, which I did like but am just intrigued to learn more about other methods. Thanks!

Any mamas in Georgia have any experience with PLAN C pills?

Hi all, Looking for some help. With my previous two pregnancies I conceived using clomid as I have ovulation problems and now have two lovely boys. I’d love to have a 3rd child. I recently suffered a miscarriage and I thought taking clomid again might be a good idea to conceive. I’ve been thinking about taking t...

My girlie hates when I wipe in her area but it gets dirty and I don’t wanna leave it because obvious reasons. What’s the easiest way? She’s my first girl after three boys too 🥲

Hi there! 👋🏼 Looking for recommendations on obgyns you love. I live in Yorkville but am open to docs in the Chicagoland area. Thanks in advance! ☺️

My husband and I are both 30, just had our first child. I hated being pregnant, I lost 20lbs with HG. On depression meds and occasional anxiety pill as needed. I said I want to get my birth control back in and he said no. It took us 11months to conceive after I had it removed last year and he's afraid it's going to ...

My doctor has been very reactive and condescending to me when I’m either relaying important information or asking a question. She was very rude about my birthing plan requests/preferences as well. It’s gotten to the point where I want to avoid her at all costs. Her unfiltered responses lead me to start crying and fe...

Hi all! 16 days post section. Not showered yet today but did yesterday. Not too sure if this is anything to worry about but my incision has a slight cheesy smell and looks wet in the photo with the flash. I do have a tummy over hang so unsure if that makes it a hostile environment for my incision. Other than this...

My obgyn wants try me on Clomid and I’m a bit nervous. Any advice 😁

Hi mamas! I’m having a big struggle right now. I’m 28 weeks pregnant and have been having recurring UTIs (e coli) for the last 6 weeks non stop. I’ve been on lots of different antibiotics (that have mostly worked) but as soon as I finish my course my symptoms come back instantly and I’m in so much pain again. I saw ...
