The guidance varies from trust to trust unfortunately, I was told to stop at 36 weeks whereas I’ve seen others be advised to take it up until birth

I was advised to take until birth but as Lauren has mentioned, it seems to vary x

Probably should’ve added, I’ve been told 36 weeks by the midwives, 37 weeks by a doctor and ‘whenever I want’ as it doesn’t really matter by my consultant 🫣

I stopped taking them at 36 weeks as per my consultant and the letter I received I’m now 38 weeks pregnant x

It’s to avoid excessive blood loss during labour but I would clarify with your docs x

My advice by 2 different NHS trusts is to stop at 36 weeks. I’m stopping Tuesday having taken 150 each evening since November.

I was told 36 weeks. But I’ll be honest and o stopped before because it’s
A blood thinner and I was told I could be early although I’m still here at 38 weeks

I was told from when I started taking it that I’d stop at 36, then saw the consultant at around 34 weeks who said I should carry on until I go into labour. Then saw a different consultant at 36+2 who said I should have stopped at 36 🤦🏼‍♀️

I took it until I gave birth

Sex life is 🫠

Im a little desperate already . Im not a huge fan on blowjobs but I’m doing it because I know he likes it . If he wants it in a car, during work meeting , on the balcony, on the beach everywhere I’m okay to do that . However, I’m not getting anything in return. I mean the last time he went down was more than 1.5 years ago . Okay, I was pregnant maybe he did not feel like doing it while I had a belly as he told me . , but I’m not pregnant already for awhile and I’m always telling him that I want him to go down and he is always having an excuse like “tomorrow “ etc . At the beginning it was funny and I was like okayyy but now it’s not as I’m not enjoying our sex in general . Like the process itself does not make me finish . As I’m breastfeeding and super dry down there and I’m always telling him to put lubricant as it’s hurting me . And sometimes it feels like I am begging for that as he is more comfortable without it , but damn IM NOT OKAY without it . So basically I do not remember when was the last time I have finished during sex . I understand that now with a baby it’s hard to fully enjoy it and have enough time for everything. But still . Just kiss me and put your dick inside me does not seems sexy . To be honest I understand why in marriage women does not want to have sex . Like I feel like it’s already work that I have to do not a pleasure. I’ve been telling him that but as I can see no changes applied 🫠

Question about ejaculation

I tell my partner to wear a condom not only for protection but also so that there's no mess to clean up when I get up to use the toilet. Is this normal?
I ask because I now have the contraceptive pill but I still want him to wear a condom.
