Hi! Mom of 3! I liked having my own hospital gown and breastfeeding friendly loungewear. Flipflops or slides to walk around the room and bathroom. All the things to shower and clean. Couple of outfits for the baby and hand mittens so they don’t scratch their face. And absolutely you’re boppy for holding and feeding the baby!
If you’re feeling extra— your own blanket and pillow; cute baby name plates or blankets for newborn photos; makeup and hair products.

You’re gonna do great and it will be wonderful! Congrats!

is there any stores that I could get my own hospital gown at? I'm really close to my due date so if I order one it probably won't be here in time

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

32 weeks

32 week growth scan and clinic appointment. Did anything unusual happen? Ive heard a few people saying 32 weeks was when they had a induction date

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow
