Little weight gain concerning??

I’ve only gained nearly 4lbs so far this pregnancy and I’m almost 15 weeks now. I’m eating as much as I can, but most of the time I just feel full all day or when I do eat I get full fast. Anyone else experience slow weight gain early. According to google I should’ve gained 4-6lbs just in the first trimester and should be gaining at least a pound every week currently.

Congratulations.

1st I would say DO NOT GOOGLE .

Your weight gain is perfectly safe at this stage of your pregnancy multiples doesn't change how much you should gain at the beginning.

Your consultant/ midwife will guide you should their be any concerns but right now it's pretty standard. X

I’ve lost 13lbs since I got pregnant and have only put 4lbs back on. I’m 13.5weeks. I’m also worried but have no appetite and so many food aversions still.
However my doctor said not to worry and that as long as I continue to put weight on this trimester then it will all be fine, also as my twins are measuring a few days ahead.

I was thinking to try some protein shakes for pregnancy to increase my calorie intake.

yeah like I’m not really sick anymore, I just don’t want anything specific, always feel full to begin with, and when I do eat I try to eat more protein but that only helps but so much if I’m barely eating because I’m not hungry 😭 protein shakes are a good idea I may try those. Idk how my babies are growing though because I’ve only had my 1 ultrasound at 8 weeks, they were measuring a week ahead then but I won’t have another ultrasound until November ☹️

C - section

Hello lovelies, I’m getting closer to my date of c section.

Can I ask how it all went for you? I felt prepared and now I have this awful feeling what if I bleed out! I’m sure that’s not the case. But I just wondered how it went, and how the aftermath was. I have seen on social media people say it’s horrendous but then I speak to friends and family and they’re like yeah it’s not easy but you can cope! You can walk, etc. I think it’s the unknown… lol!

Also were you all sick during your procedure and did you all get terrible trapped gas? If so what tips do you have xx

Best way to be induced??

I just found out I may need to be induced early due to preeclampsia and having a generally bigger baby which of the ways to be induced do y’all recommended?

This is a bit strange.. but hear me out

I am 36 weeks and 4 days today.
I had that feeling, you know when you are trying to take a tampon out on your end of period and it kind of hurts because the tampon is dry? I had that sensation today?

Now I feel like I have to push something about my vagina? It kinda tickles but uncomfortable. I’m not having any pains at all anywhere btw so can’t be baby ??

20 week anatomy scan for baby girl today 🥰💕🌷

So grateful everything was perfect with little miss baby, she’s right on track around 20-21 weeks, can’t wait to meet my baby girl! 😇🌸🙏🏻

cheating dream

i need advice but PLS DON'T JUDGE!!!
last night i had a dream, i always used to dream my partner cheating on me with my friends, or being super mean, but since we had our baby those dreams disappeared. for context, we haven't been able to have sex yet, I'm 12 weeks pp, and my pelvic floor is so tense, and it's awful.
last night i had a VERY weird dream, it was so realistic, and different from others, he handed me his phone, and ask me to help him handle this girl, like annoyed? in the chat this girl was super obsessive, and messaged him a lot before he replied. she asked him to sing a song to her, and he sent her a voice message singing it, and other voice messages i couldn't listen in the dream. i wrote her to stop, and she was angry, telling me he started it. then i confronted him about this (still in the dream) and he changed his attitude, he seemed so guilty and said to me he had deleted some messages. i don't remember much else, but i woke up with the URGE of checking his insta messages. we've been together for 5 years, and I've never checked his phone, and neither has he (that i know if, at least) and contained myself, but I'm still very much concerned about it. it felt like an epiphany, a revelation or smth like that. I know people might think I'm overreacting but i can't get it out of my head, it was so specific.
i though about asking him to show me, but i know he'll be bothered that i don't trust him (i would be too in his place), but if he's cheating he would say that to make me feel bad. also i thought about checking his phone in his sleep, and then ask him to see his reaction, but feel so bad, i wouldn't like if he went through my phone without asking, even tho I have nothing to hide.
please, be kind!!

Has anyone started to plan out their first birthday yet lol I know it’s a little bit early but I like to plan ahead. I already have a theme picked out.
