I was just talking about this with my husband. I wish people would have gifted me with more sleep n play pjs they grow out of them so fast. Also diapers are always appreciated

Something for the mama is always appreciated! Could get a cute mama mug or make a little self care package for her (favourite hot drink, face masks, slippers etc)! X

We loved our baby Bjorn bouncer, the hatch sound machine (the best thing ever), any board books, footed pajamas from Carter's ( but we got WAY too much newborn size and not enough of older sizes) a baby first aid kit, happy mat and tiny cup from EZPZ, teethers, toys, stuffed animals. Good luck!

You can even gift the mom a message. So time she does have away from baby she can get the best message of her life. ❤️

Sleepers, we love our diaper genie, love to dream sleep sack, our electric nasal aspirator was very helpful for us, even infant Tylenol to have on hand because there was a shortage and was hard to find for awhile…wouldn’t hurt to have. And of course diapers! 🙂🙂

A little update I had time to go and buy her gifts and I got a blanket some bottles she wanted and hadn’t gotten any yet two sleep and plays (on a budget now so couldn’t get all that I wanted) and a little stuffed cow that rattles when you shake it and I’m working on getting a card as well and getting her a gift card so her and her boyfriend can go out together on a little date before the baby comes she’s been so stressed and he had too since a few complications had come up but they just resolved themselves so I just wanna help cheer her up and her shower is next week:)

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!

Owlet

Anyone else’s owlet pi##ing them off ?!?! It goes off 5/6 a night saying it can’t get a reading and needs a snug fit. My baby is 8 months old so moves a lot. It is driving me insane and I keep end up taking it off!!
