Big hugs! I'm terrified also my son is 2.5 and I'm pregnant with #2. Feel free to message me!

I've got my son who was born in November and a 7 week old newborn girl. Its been wonderful watching him being kind and gentle. When baby cries he'll run round to get a dummy, blanket and muzzy. So many people told me it'll be a nightmare having 2 under 2, told me horror stories etc but honestly is wonderful so far

I have two with a 15 month gap, oldest is 18 months now. It's adorable, second little man just slotted right in. I do have a good family support though which helps a lot xx

My oldest was 19 month when my 2nd was born, and this time ill have around 20/21 months.

My 2 are little best mates. They fight constantly but they love eachother xx

I had a Nov 22 baby and a Nov 23 baby, it’s madness and exhausting at times but it’s amazing how strong you are! My days go so quick and you just ‘do it’ its easier with your second as you no what your doing x

Confused Over Test Result

My heads pretty blagged about this atm. I’ve had spotting & some cramping but of the 2 tests I’d have expected the clear blue one to be most accurate. Any advice?

2nd baby

Anyone who’s had their 2nd baby, when did you go into labour compared to your first?

Boy or girl?

I’ve just discovered the nub theory and this is my 4th baby. Anyone take a guess?

SPPH (secondary postpartum haemorrhage) due to retained placenta -D&C?

Looking to see if anyone else has experienced this? Currently trying to pass retained tissue ( 4 weeks pp) and finding every day so exhausting just constantly waiting and checking my bleeding. I stopped bleeding on week 2.5/3 then bleeding picked up last Saturday and I haemorrhaged on Thursday morning with a rush to hospital. Everyday since I’m waking up scared I’ll be bleeding out. Worried to go toilet to check, I’m not convinced I’ll be passing it naturally and I’m worried I’ll need a D&C… has anyone had this? My retained tissue is 2cm so they said it’s small but I have no signs of passing it or blood changing colour to show slowing down.

Owlet sock worth it?

Anyone use the owlet sock for newborn? Is it worth the price and what are some pros / cons?

39 weeks pregnant FTM

39 weeks baby hasn’t come yet and I am just full of anxiety. I am trying to relax. I am trying to chill, but I can’t chill. I do not want to be induced. I would love to have her natural. Issue is I am tight down there and petite and baby is measuring big like the head especially. I know that measurements can be off. But I have photos! And she is a chunk. This is so unpredictable. How do I just put my faith forward and trust in God and how do I let go of this anxiety? I am doing fine and then boom it hits me and I want to ball my eyes out. I am trying to treat myself and do little things but driving or doing anything is so hard now and I’m so huge and uncomfortable …I’m at my breaking point 😭
