Personal Grooming

I normally do a combination of epilating/shaving down below. I’m finding it harder to do now I’m getting an actual baby bump. This morning I stood one foot on a little plastic stool in the shower to shave.

I know it’s not crucial but I feel much cleaner and better when it’s tidy. I’ve never had a wax, does anyone have any tips?

Paracetamol before a wax and help with the "stretching"

I have been looking in the mirror to guide me 🤦🏻‍♀️ I hope this helps. I have been waxed before but not whilst pregnant so I’m unsure on that.

I’ve been getting the odd wax at my beauticians while pregnant (either a high bikini or a Brazilian wax). I opt for lycon wax which is much less painful and seems quicker to do - I especially recommend it if you’re a first timer to waxing!

I used to wax but every since getting pregnant it’s like they’re trying to kill me 😭 honestly start sweating more and more and get panic attacks and feel like I’m gonna faint so stopped 😭 now I shave … BUT now I can’t see what I’m doing so hubby needs to help 😭

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. 🤍

Help

Really embarrassing!
I'm a first time mummy at 35, she's 16 month and everytime I sneeze or cough I lose control of my bladder and pee a little 😔, I've had countless utis since having her aswell! Will it get better? Or do I need to invest in panty liners? 😆

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 🤣
