Feels so strange, today would have been her birthday as it’s my due date anniversary, but got another ten days to go! So weird thinking back to last year when I was just curb walking and bouncing on that bloody ball and wondering when she was coming. Mad!

I'm the same! Mine is 1 in 5 weeks and for the last week I've felt so emotional about it already. I'm dreading what I'll be like on his actual birthday 🤣

I feel like I was worse when she turned 6 months. It really hit me that we were half way to a year and that I only had another 6 months before I returned to work etc. But now she is nearly 1 I’m trying to really celebrate her first year of life and how good it’s been. I don’t want to be miserable but I will be emotional nearer the time I’m sure x

So so emotional. Kinda relieved to read this ❤️❤️ it’s my LO birthday on Sunday and we are having a little family bbq but I don’t feel excited 🙈🙈 is that bad? I think I’m just overwhelmed that we are going to have a one year old

my daughter turned 1 last Sunday and as soon as midnight hit I was crying uncontrollably tears were just streaming down my face 😩 my emotions were so high the year has gone so fast even though I’ve been present for everything and every milestone I still feel like I’ve missed it, if that makes sense because it’s gone so fast 😩 1 minute she’s a tiny new born and the next she’s this 1 year old 😭

Agreed, I spent the whole day running off to have a cry! It’s not bad at all ❤️ it’s just a very emotional day for us I think, the reality that our babies aren’t babies anymore. I was almost glad when the day was done but then I also spent the whole next day crying because I kept thinking “this time last year we were doing xyz” 😂

that’s me this whole week so far 😩 my snap chat memories are killing me right now 😩

wow yes I feel exactly the same. I’ve gone back to work aswell and whenever I see little babies out and about I can feel a lump in my throat. He’s in nursery a few days a week and oh wow I miss him so much. Never knew I would feel this way as a mum. It’s an emotional rollercoaster xxx

ha I have been doing exactly the same ❤️❤️ I nearly cried looking at a newborn and their mum in tescos yesterday. I thought I was going mad

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?
