Some babies don’t engage until right at the end, with my first I was 2/5 engaged at 38 weeks and then my daughter was born at 39+1. This time I have been engaged since 36 weeks, currently 38+3

I dont think it means anything personally. I was 2/5 engaged last Tuesday at my 38 week appointment n had my little girl Saturday x

It doesnt really mean anything unfortunately. I was 3/5 engaged on the tuesday & went into labour on the thursday. But know people who have been fully engaged and have still waited a while!

I was 1/5 engaged at 37 weeks and my baby came at 39 weeks, I wouldn’t worry to much about engagement. They can go from 0-5 engaged very quickly x

11 weeks pp and pregnant?!

Im absolutely shitting myself, me and my partner have been so carefull (we use condoms and he also pulls out) but im late on my period and i cant get to the shop for a few days due to no car and im thinking im possibly pregnant. When i was pregnant before the animals were different the dog became more protective of me and the cat hated me and always tried to bite me. and they have recently been the same. Im trying to think if i have any possible early symptoms so i can convince myself im not 😂 the only thing i have is feeling sick alot and nauseous lol.
what was everyones first symptoms when you’ll were pregnant???

Is this dress yes or a no?

We are going to Japan for 3 weeks in July and 13 of those days we are on a cruise. There is a bunch of formal nights and formal events and for some of them I’m doing a 80’s glam theme. I already got the dresses for those but I’m looking for some fun and fancy dresses that aren’t vintage also. I’ve been eyeing this particular dress for MONTHS. I kind of love it, but I think it might also be too weird 😆. What do you think?

Weight loss jabs

Is or has anyone been on wegovy or similar whilst also breast feeding? Did you find that it impacted your supply? Please no judgy comments. I'm aware the advice is avoid going on them but I've found out I'm prediabetic. I have pcos and hashimotos so losing weight is near impossible but I feel so awful having put on 10kg from my pre pregnancy weight.
