I'm feeling the exact same way. I was chubbier before pregnancy but I haven't had ANY time to work out with the baby. It's even worse when your too big for your prepregnancy clothes and too small for your pregnancy so you don't fit into anything. I don't have time to eat meals so I eat whatever I can. Usually it's a cookie or a couple chips. It's a struggle girl but you're not alone

thank you for sharing with me it’s awful I feel so ugly I don’t even like looking in the mirror like I know I should embrace my body like we carried a person brought life into the world but I’m having such a hard time like feeling good and then I see other moms and they look fantastic it just makes me feel so bad

Girl same! I lost my pregnancy weight within a couple weeks but my body still looks so different!! The only time I have to eat or do anything for myself is after my twins to to bed so I end up eating a ton of crap late at night. It's so hard to find time to do anything for ourselves. Idk how anyone finds time to work out with babies 😅 I try to remind myself that my body is the way it is because of my boys but it's so hard. I used to judge how I looked before too though. At least now we created life and have a pretty great reason behind these things we don't love on our bodies

I swear that’s when I find myself craving the most in the evening or when I wake up in the middle of the night to feed him. God bless you girl u have twins I’m struggling with one your amazing doing it with two 💙

Oh ladies 🫤🫣. I’ve done tons of things to lose the weight and feel amazing …. Organ supplements (a company called heart & soil), Kangen water, stem cell patches, and working out at Hotworx (an infared sauna-short 15 min workouts). All of these things worked wonders for me. I sell the water machines and stem cell patches if anyone is interested. 💕💕 hang in there mommas … it will get better

i really want another baby

i am merely a few months pp but i want another baby, but i am scared of the age gap (2 under 2) and also with everything going on in the world i just think its not the best idea at the moment but i am having crazy baby fever and miss having a newborn🥹

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
