Low motivation

Anyone else got such little motivation to do anything ? I have an 18 month old who’s been grizzly all day and work to do whilst she naps. I just want to hide from it all!!!

Yes! I feel this. Although I do not have any other children. No motivation to even cook or eat good things. Going back to the gym tonight after a month off and looking forward to it. You'll get there x

Absolutely, my daughter is with her grandparents today and there is so much I could be doing. But I lay in bed for ages earlier as I just didn't want to get up and do anything... now I've progressed to the sofa. Definitely finding it hard to have the energy to keep up with her right now x

do you work too? It’s a hard juggle!!

I do work yeah, only part time. Gone sick today though as I've been feeling really tired and nauseous. Taking a sofa day while I have the peace to do so! X

My son is 15 months, he's been terrorising me ALL day throwing things at me, trying to climb up the curtains, etc.. its like they know you haven't got the energy. Hopefully, second trimester is better 🤞😅x

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

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

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!!
