Omg is anyone else periods HORRENDOUS? I’m not even supposed to have on because the pill I’ve been on, but the stomach cramps I’ve been getting, I felt like I was in early labour again trying to breath through it 😩😩

What pill is it? Unless you are on the combined pill and skipping the week break then I’m not sure there’s one that stops periods? x

MEEEEEEE!!! This is my second since having my baby and it was giving labour pains for sure. I was/am not coping but keep telling myself it's my body adjusting and will get better.
Hoping it gets better quick for you 🙏

no I’m on the mini pill and you don’t have a break with it x

omg last night was the third night of awwwwful period pains! It’s not bad in the day but as soon as evening hits it’s horrendous and idk why! Theres not even any blood really just the pains x

So the mini pill made me bleed continuously for 3 months! That could be why you’re suffering x

oh great!! I was fine when I was on it before the baby so I have no idea! Hopefully it’ll get better 😩 xx

Small head reported following 20 week scan

Has anyone else had it flagged that their baby is in the bottom 5th percentile for head size?

They said everything was fine whilst we were in the scan and then I got a phone call the next day saying that it’s on the small side and we’re being referred to a paediatric specialist at St George’s. Has anyone else had this and how did things go??

Would you bring 9 week old to a family party of 35+ people?

These are also people who will want to pass the baby around and get a turn to hold him. He just got his 2 month shots two days ago

Exercise 6 weeks after c section

What movement did people start to introduce? I won’t do anything too vigorous until I’ve seen the pelvic physio as I don’t want to compromise anything that may have been extremely weakened through pregnancy! But just wondering what types of classes/movement people started off with?

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 😂🥲
