Not a fan of this third trimester malarkey! Woke up with strong cramps, nausea and the urge to poo as though I have a bug. Thrown up twice in the toilet and it’s bright orange? and have severe heartburn now. Is this all normal stuff? Still having braxton hicks every few hours and I lost some mucus the other day. Is this just standard third trimester fun and games?

I would contact your midwife just to be on the safe side - sounds horrific! I'm sorry you're experiencing this. For the heartburn definitely try Gaviscon and any yoghurt. Both work a treat for me, and I've had bad heartburn since the beginning x

i would definitely contact triage or your midwife just to be on the safe side.
although, these symptoms are very similar to what i’m experiencing too.
i only had Braxton Hicks for one day, but lasted 8/9 hours. every day i wake up in discomfort, feeling like i’m going to throw up or faint. it’s not pleasant 🥲

Please contact your midwife or triage, I did for strong cramps that weren’t braxtons and got told I’m at risk of pre term labour, so I’m literally on reduced movements, workload etc until baby decides it’s his birthday.

I remember having orange throw up and losing mucus with my daughter, as my heartburn was like fire with her and the mucus can be hormonal or a sign of strep B (very common and treatable if it is).

Third trimester isn’t much fun, I always feel you’re at your worst when you give birth as your body is getting tired. Rest where you can, be kind to yourself ❤️

Friends wedding abroad

Hi all. I know this is FTM... But really need advice. I am currently pregnant with baby #2. Only 8 weeks. I didn't want to tell anyone yet, my partner and boss knows (needed for risk assessment reasons annoyingly). My friend is getting married in a remote part of Spain in ~3 months. I've already had a few minor complications, pain, bleeding, vanishing twin... I got preeclampsia last pregnancy and a terrible birth.
I am pretty sure I don't feel comfortable flying and then travelling out to a remote part of Spain during pregnancy. It will just be me and my toddler. I know it's overcautious but I just don't feel comfortable. I'm not even sure if I am going to be classified as high risk pregnancy or not.
How do I handle this? I need to tell her ASAP, but I didn't really want to tell anyone yet as doc told me miscarriage risk is a bit increased with vanishing twin. Any ideas?

Anxious/depressed

My first pregnancy symptom was my anxiety out of nowhere. I feel like I'm a bundle of nerves and just so scared of everything. Is anyone else feeling similar? How are you managing? Are we contributing it to hormones?

Sneak Peek Test

I did the sneak peek test at 15 weeks pregnant, and the results just came back girl! Has anyone ever taken the test, gotten girl, and it been wrong?
