Colostrum

Absolutely over the moon to have got this much colostrum but I’m feeling really sick when expressing? Does anyone else get this? My heart is racing and I feel like I could pass out??

This is over how many days ?

Ahhh amazing! Yes, I think it’s because I can feel the placenta pulsating it really turns my stomach 🤮

Wow! Well done!! Can you please share any tips for those that are struggling? X

Wow! The abundance!

I’ve been really lucky this time! I wasn’t really the first time. I have one good boob too the other isn’t great 🤣 but I’ve found a technique in almost pushing my breast back into my body then squeezing, and like above said, to squeeze nipple for longer rather than small short squeezes!! Xx

I was going ask the same … 🫣

High risk

I’m considered high risk because I was fully dilated when I had an emergency C-section with my first and there’s risks I could go into pre term labour so I have cervical length scans every 2 weeks between 16-22/24 and I’m aloud to try for a vbac if I go into spontaneous labour by 40 weeks but I’ll have a planned C-section booked for week 40 ( which I’m really hoping doesn’t happen )Just wondering if anyone else had similar experiences I’m just very overwhelmed and hoping people have maybe had a good successful full term pregnancy & birth despite what IVE previously mentioned x

6.2 days no heart beat

So from my flo ap, I was supposed to be 6.2 days yesterday which is when I had an internal scan. everything was seen but no heartbeat :( she measured me at 2.2 mm which is more like 5+5 weeks but I’m freaking out. Any positive stories please :(

Which induction method??

Im at the hospital now for induction and dont know which method to go for.
I initially didnt want the balloon because the sweeps really hurt me and I feel it will be most uncomfortable but seems like the highest success rate? And no hormones.

What has everyone else done and recommend?

Name crisis

I was so decided on a name, now I'm having second thoughts. It's not a standard name and his middle name is set after my Dad, John. He's very traditional and I know he'll hate the first name I chose! Open to any ideas! I would love if the initials sounded right too! Again, middle name "John". Thank you ladies!! 😭💟

Nausea

I’m 6weeks 4days and my nausea is HORRIBLE ! I wake up immediately feeling like I’m about to throw up to the point I have to sit, breath in extra big breaths, I might feel light headed or like I’m going to pass out. This will literally last ALL DAY & has been for the past 5/6 days now. When I try to eat something I take very small bites as it feels like I’m going to throw up what I just put down. My mom told me about apple juice which has been helping but my goodness I cannot take it 😭 what has helped you guys who deal with bad nausea ?
