Canesten is absolutely fine to use in pregnancy just not constantly if it's recurrent you'll need to go to docs

yes it's fine to use these but people advise you don't use the applicator for inserting the pessary as it can irritate you. Use your fingers to push it in far as you can.
I used pessary during first 12 weeks and I started bleeding bright red and sort of... weird consistency? Powdery. It was all cus of the pessary and it was completely harmless but I'd certainly avoid the applicator if I did it again

I was told that you can use the pessary but don’t insert it all the way up.

Mama needs new friends ✨

Hey mamas 🤍 I'm going to be honest — I'm at a season in my life where I'm craving real, genuine friendship. The kind where we actually check on each other. Where conversations go both ways. Where we can laugh, vent, cry, and just *be* without it feeling one-sided.

I'm a stay at home mom of 6 (yes, 6! 👏🏼) and my days are full but my cup feels a little empty in the friendship department. I'm looking for women who get it — the chaos, the beauty, the exhaustion, all of it.

If you're a mom who values deep, reciprocal friendship and you're also out here looking for your people — drop a 👋 below. Let's actually get to know each other. 🤍

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Random but when you use a vibrator do you need to hold your lips open for it to touch the bean ?

It gets annoying because even if I open my legs I still need to hold the lips open to touch the bean and I have to do it the entire time my lips are literally sealed closed 🤣
