this sounds like when i had thrush, please get it checked so it doesn’t affect little one❤️

I had thrush twice in first trimester, just would not go away. Mention it to your GP and they’ll likely prescribe you a pessary. Do not take the oral tablet, that’s not safe in pregnancy. Although I’m sure they’d tell you that.
Insert pessary using your fingers not the applicator, as applicator can go quite high and irritate/touch the cervix.
Get it seen to asap for your own quality of life because can be very uncomfortable but don’t worry yourself sick, I don’t think it can travel from vagina to baby as cervix will be closed shut and baby is inside womb.
Only risky if you have thrush during labour as baby can catch it while they make their way through the birth canal and vagina x

This could also be a yeast infection. It’s very common in pregnancy, I get it at least once or twice when I’m pregnant. You can ask your OB or try yeast infection cream. It’s not going to effect the baby or your pregnancy so don’t worry. Once you use the cream it’ll go away and won’t effect the baby during delivery. Thrush normally occurs during the third trimester.

Thankyou! I have my 16week appointment on Thursday would I be ok to mention it then or would you recommend I get in touch with my GP tmro morning?

Hey sorry my reply is late but I’d deffo tell your GP asap if you haven’t done so already x

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?

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

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)

I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol

What are your symptoms?
