Totally normal, I'm already starting to worry ahead of mine on Friday. I've had 4 scans so far (3 private) and I'm convinced everytime something will be wrong. I have no tips to help but you're not alone in feeling like this. The relief you feel when you see them on the screen will be worth all the worry! Xx

Oh i know but it just lasts like a day or two then I’m back to high levels anxiety. My last daughter was born at 32weeks so I think that’s why I’m so scared something may happen x

@Viki so understandable. I know what you mean about the relief only lasting a few days! Good luck today x

I'm 17 weeks, just had gender scan and kept me calm only on the day I had the scan. Now I'm terrified of the 20 week scan! The more people tell me not to worry the more I worry! It never stops xx

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
