My little girl has been smiling since 2/3 weeks old and it definitely wasn't wind like some people told me, even got it confirmed from midwife as she was smiling at her !

exactly!! I think if your smiling at them constantly they learn don’t they 🥰🥰

Aww this made me smile! She's gorgeous ❤️
My first was an early smiler, mums can definitely tell the difference!

thank you just melts your heart doesn’t it!!

yess awww just gorgeous isn’t it!!! X

Mine smiled the moment he was put on my chest after birth, floored me 🫠 Been smiling at least once a day every day since then. So cute 🥲

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! 🥰

Did you have your kid(s) with you at the hospital when you were in labor-going home?

Sorry, let me rephrase. If you had a vaginal delivery & actually had your kid(s) with you

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?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

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?
