Help! I drank aloe juice

I bought aloe Vera juice, not knowing it wasn't safe for pregnancy. While drinking it I realized I never checked, and sure enough, it is Not safe. It is said to cause uterine contractions. I only had 6oz of the juice, but now I'm freaking out. Should I try to throw it up? My doctor won't answer ANY questions until I see them Wednesday.

It shouldn't do much of anything I drank it regularly with my son and everything went fine. I also didn't know though. If you feel anything like very strong cramps go to a hospital or urgent care

I accidentally drank Mothers Milk which has a ton of fenugreek in it (not safe for pregnancy). I freaked out for like a day but I think everything is fine. As long as you don’t drink it all the time I’m sure it’s ok. One time shouldn’t be enough to hurt the baby!

From what I’ve read, accidentally ingesting an herbal abortifacient won’t typically harm a viable pregnancy, but you can try to call your insurance and see if you have access to a 24/7 nurse advice line when you can’t reach your regular provider.

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you
