Any other little one not walking yet?

So concerned! We had a physio appointment but it was online and was just told to wait another month. Not very reassuring

My son isn't walking properly yet, he has cancer and gets close and then his treatment stops him!
He can do a few now and the but not properly. There are some great accounts on Instagram of paediatric physios and they give info and tips to help encourage walking, I'll pop them at the bottom to see if they help you =)

What can your little one do movement wise?

I found these accounts really helped us with supporting our son's strength and mobility!

My lb isn't walking yet. He is very delayed in majority of aspects. But his sibling has is non verbal autism and learning development delay. It took her to atleast 20 months to walk.

My little boy isn’t walking yet either, he cruises and will walk with a walker and walk supported but not on his own!

Our little boy didn't walk until 18 1/2 months. I just kept encouraging him constantly and one day he went for it. He has no issues with development etc, he just wasn't ready yet

Thanks everyone. My boy can stand up and cruise or walk with our support but like with any milestones it's just taking ages to reach it. 2 weeks ago he took few steps by himself and I thought he finally got there but since then nothing has happened. He is just not interested and when I see children of his age running around I worry he might have some delays.

I'm so sorry for your son, I really hope he recovers soon. I send you a big hug!

My little boy isn't walking independently either. He is slowly getting there. We saw a physio last week who thought he might be slightly hypermobile, but said I just need to keep encouraging him - she said she'd call me in two months, but I wasn't planning on taking any further action in the meantime.

What do you do to encourage him?

Any activity that encourages standing or holding his hand while walking, just getting him moving really.

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)

I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol

What are your symptoms?

Planned c section

Has anyone had a planned c section and been home the same day?

I have a feeling like I might get attacked from this but I’m going to say it anyways. incognito 🥸 GLP1s being mainstream for regular people who are NOT diabetic or morbidly obese is bad for so many reasons 💉💉💉

Side affects, long term dependency, supply shortages and costs, regaining the weight back as soon as you get off them.. all that ASIDE how do people not see just from a zoomed out perspective how crazy it is. I can’t imagine being someone facing food insecurity in an underdeveloped country and watching westerners give themselves daily jabs so they can lose weight while still eating a calorie surplus/ crappy foods. It’s giving hunger games when district 12 Katniss finds out at the party at the capital that people eat and then take a pill to make themselves sick so they can 🤮 and eat some more. These ads running ozempic everywhere are disgusting, and then getting amazing athletes like Serena Williams to push them talking bout “i’ve never been healthier” girl you were an OLYMPIC athlete wym??

C section compression socks

Hey ladies when did you ditch the compression socks and how mobile were you when you did? I’m so done with them! 6 weeks tomorrow since the op and im walking around the house doing jobs and baby care but not really out and about yet (the odd day I am) is it safe to ditch the socks?
