pure organic raspberry leaf tea morning noon and night! it’s not gonna put you into labor but in my experience they definitely give me braxton hicks that get more intense the more i drink it. i started at 30 weeks though with just one a day, now starting today actually i’m having like 6 cups a day😭 just be patient, nothing is really going to make your baby come until you both are ready. staying calm and rested may actually be all that you need

also, get a birthing ball to open up your pelvis and look up little exercises that are “labor inducing” bc it might be that your baby is just struggling to get in the right position

39+1 and i haven’t had any signs of anything :) btw I’ve been drinking pineapple juice my entire pregnancy lol so I don’t believe that one!

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃
