I’m due the 8th and I haven’t packed my hospital bag yet 😭

26 more days

I'm so tired, hanging in there hospital bag packed just not the way I like it lol kinda thrown together 😅 I haven't had the energy to change it yet

I have dual feelings, everything seem to be ready for a baby but it’s still surreal to me that it is less than a month left and my life will never be the same anymore. Body is heavy and constantly catching myself on the thought, what if she comes earlier and I have even less time than I think

I’m due on the 18th,hospital bags packed maternity shots done yesterday . I’m counting down to meet my princess 🥰🥰

Knowing I’m going to get bigger 😩. How big are you mommas?

Umbilical Cord

My 7 day old baby’s cord has started to detach and the inside looks like this. Is this normal?

Placenta not working properly

I'm 34+2 and baby has gotten smaller since my last growth scan. There is blood flow going between the baby and the placenta but it seems the baby may be struggling slightly. I have a scan tomorrow to see if my c section should be booked in for 36 weeks.

Has anyone had a 36 week baby? X my first was 39+4 x

Is It Just Me?

Is it just me, or are babies these days developing in their own completely unique way and fast!!

My little one is 6 months now, and honestly it feels like every week brings something new.

Sitting up started around 4–5 months, even though tummy time has never been the favourite activity. Rolling is no problem, but the real interest now is in attempting to shuffle around and explore
Standing with support has become a whole new hobby — anything sturdy enough becomes a piece of “furniture gym equipment.”
Weaning began at 4 months, and by 5 months there was already interest in snacks labelled for 7 months and up. And despite all the movement and curiosity, sleeping in their own crib has been completely fine too.

It’s fascinating watching how different babies grow at their own pace — some rush ahead in certain areas, some take their time, and all of it is perfectly normal. They really do come with their own little blueprint.

My LO definitely needs to slow down 🤣😅

Julia Donaldson Party

Hi all, I’m throwing a Julia Donaldson party for my soon to be one year old but finding it hard to find decorations etc!

I have a sign, banner, zog and Gruffalo cupcakes and of course a cake! Also going to bring some books and toys to display.

Just wondered if anyone has done anything similar and could share any ideas?

I know he won’t remember but I want to make it amazing. We aren’t renting a soft play we’re just buying a slide set and a ball pit etc so my son can use them at home! So I just to make sure the theme pops so I can take lots of pictures and show him when he’s older!
