Welcome 💜

Hello ladies. There is only a few of us which I anticipated giving the ethos of the group.

Are you going through a wild pregnancy / preparing a freebirth / had a freebirth?

Would LOVE to hear your stories and support eachother. There seems to be quite a lot of fear and anxiety with the pregnant community on this app and hoping to engage in more positive discussions too 💜💜

I hope this group gets to reach out many others! I am here because this is my future. My next baby / pregnancy will be a wild pregnancy. I had a low intervention homebirth with my first and it led me to learn that freebirth is the way to go. I labored alone 90% of the time which is one of the main reasons i know i can do it. Additionally, i dont want to do ultrasounds or all that nonsense anymore, I learned my lesson the first time around. Anyway, thank you for creating the group and i would love to hear everyone’s stories!

Congrats on a beautiful first journey into motherhood! And you absolutely can have the birth you want 🧡 I am here if you have any questions xxx

Confused Over Test Result

My heads pretty blagged about this atm. I’ve had spotting & some cramping but of the 2 tests I’d have expected the clear blue one to be most accurate. Any advice?

2nd baby

Anyone who’s had their 2nd baby, when did you go into labour compared to your first?

SPPH (secondary postpartum haemorrhage) due to retained placenta -D&C?

Looking to see if anyone else has experienced this? Currently trying to pass retained tissue ( 4 weeks pp) and finding every day so exhausting just constantly waiting and checking my bleeding. I stopped bleeding on week 2.5/3 then bleeding picked up last Saturday and I haemorrhaged on Thursday morning with a rush to hospital. Everyday since I’m waking up scared I’ll be bleeding out. Worried to go toilet to check, I’m not convinced I’ll be passing it naturally and I’m worried I’ll need a D&C… has anyone had this? My retained tissue is 2cm so they said it’s small but I have no signs of passing it or blood changing colour to show slowing down.

Boy or girl?

I’ve just discovered the nub theory and this is my 4th baby. Anyone take a guess?

Palpitations and out of breath

Anyone else dealing with heart palpitations and running out of breath super quickly?

I already spoke to my midwife, and they put me on magnesium and extra electrolytes and said if it doesn’t help, to tell them again. I have my next OB appointment on Tuesday and I plan on bringing it back up when I see her then, but I feel like my shortness of breath has just gotten increasingly worse and the dizziness is now off and on when I used to not get it before.

Anyone else has that experience?

I am 30 weeks on Wednesday (March 25) with a C-section scheduled for end of May.
