Toilet seat turning blue/purple?!

Has anyone else noticed their toilet seat turning a light blue/purple?! I’m 15 weeks tomorrow and just noticed our toilet seat has a blue/purple tint to it. Is this pregnancy related?

Have you gotten any new jeans lately? Usually the dye rubs off and stains things

So since I been pregnant the Discharge causes some of my undies to have a blue tint it’s due to the acidity in your discharge idk if that is the same for the toilet but hope it helps.

It haven’t happened to me but I’ve heard of this! It’s a condition that happens in pregnancy it has something to do with your sweat and hormones. I believe it’s called chromhidrosis.

Yes! :) Elevated levels of estrogen and progesterone in pregnant women may change the pH of their skin, which then interacts with the ionized silver anti-microbial coating of their toilet seats and causes them to change color.

This is crazy! Our toilet seat totally turned blue during my pregnancy and I thought it was a defective seat and replaced it 😂

that’s what my husband said but I’ve been wearing leggings lately!

Wow I just learned something I didn’t know. My toilet seat might turn blue…

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
