Anyone know of a good bakery place in Palm Beach County that specializes in cakes and desserts? I'm planning a baby shower in September and would love your recommendations!

Whar do I do?!

Am I in early labour or just ill?

I have had 2 days of what is probably nesting then just got struck with the need to nap this afternoon. Woke up about 6:30 after around 2 hours and felt a bit off so ran a bath. By 7pm I'd started having mild irregular cramping accross my abdomen whilst in the bath. Got out about 8:30 and little lady had a good wriggle but I felt quite rough.

This then continued with regular cramps all night. Spent some time on my birthing ball wrapped in a blanket with a hot water bottle on my back because I had chills. Tried laying down on my left and watching something on TV, listening to music etc but I just couldn't get comfy.

Cramps coming anywhere between 5-15 minutes apart for anything from 25secs to - 2.5 mins.

I go to lay on my right and instantly vomit up over a little of the squash I had been sipping through the evening. I then feel better enough to get about a 25 minute nap in at around 2am.

Since then I've been awake and cramping still anywhere between 3.5 mins to 25mins apart.

Me and my partner have decided to get into bed and try and get some proper rest but I've woke up from the nap and my forhead temp is reading 38.8°

Realistically I know i probably should ring the Mat Unit. It's my first and I'm 37 +1.

First period

Hey!

I’m 8 weeks post–C-section, and my first period just started yesterday (yaaay 😭). However, I’m a bit concerned because the flow is very heavy, and I’m passing quite large blood clots. I feel fine otherwise—no cramps or typical period symptoms—just the heavy flow and larger clots.

Has anyone experienced an extremely heavy first period after giving birth?

Did perineal massages hurt anyone else?

Just hitting 35 weeks and tried doing a perineal massage for the first time and was very uncomfortable and a little painful. Anyone else have this and/or have any tips please?

Wide awake

Anyone else doing the 3am club 😩 im 4+6 and my eyes ping open from 2am. I am so tired during the day, but I just cannot get back to sleep 🫠

Travenverse baby. Last scan nerves

I have my last scan tomorrow at 37 and absolutely bricking it!! My last midwife appointment the midwife said she thought baby is transverse. And nothing seems to have changed. Now obviously ive been doing too much research and scared incase he is still transverse because apparently you'll be kept in? Has anyone had any experience with baby being transverse

Giant baby??

Anyone else shaping up to have a huge baby?? I’m consistently measuring in the 95+% centile (32 weeks). Midwife seems very relaxed about it, but has said that if it’s still tracking this big around 36 weeks they might want to scan me and discuss early induction or an elective section. My first labour was very long and traumatic (with a 40th centile totally average baby!!) and I am getting a bit nervous about the prospect of delivering a mega-baby. Equally I don’t know how I can keep growing another 2 months! Curious what other mums of apparently chonky little ones are thinking…
