Elevated Blood Pressure

I’m 27wks2d I was recently diagnosed with gestational, hypertension, and diabetes. My OB started me on blood pressure medication to help lower my blood pressure and to keep monitoring my blood pressure at home. She put me on labetalol HCL 100mg twice a day. I don’t know if it’s just me I did Google side effects. I’ve noticed that my scalp is like severely itchy and I don’t even have dandruff. Usually I suffer from dandruff, but I think since I’ve been starting this medicine, my scalp itches constantly I don’t know if it’s just me or if it is a side effect from the medicine. Google says it is a side effect from the medicine I know it’s some thing small and insignificant but sometimes it does drive me crazy cause I’m constantly scratching, does anybody else have this issue?

This is absolutely a side effect. It happened to me for the first week. I thought I was going crazy

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 🤣
