Headache

Help! I have a headache that would not go away, every morning and during the day it just hurts . Migraines! I told my doctor she told me to just continue Tylenol, this isn’t helping at all. Please anyone experiencing this 😭

I have the same thing, was really bad during the first trimester, so bad I was not able to work and had to spend days in bed in the dark, I’ve now had an eye test and mentioned pregnancy, so I’m getting specific glasses for the screen. Unfortunately other than that there’s not much else you can do 😕

I had this too. Very very bad migraines which I've never had before. I also have had to take time off work from week 15-18. It's pretty soul destroying. I hope things get better for you soon.

Same here! I found out in 2021 that I had migraine with aura. Since then it progressed and my last episode before pregnancy was in April/2023, so more than a year without episodes. When I was around 10 weeks I started to have very bad migraine episodes that lasted for 2-3 days! They said I can’t have my regulate medication (sumatriptan) and I could only have paracetamol. I laughed because who has migraine knows that water and paracetamol works the same with migraine.

Since then I’m having episodes at least once a week. Trying to find out what to do.

I bought a mask where you freeze it and put in on your head. It helps! At least momentarily.. after few hours you use it again.

Also I bought a acupressure clip, to use in your hand .. both works and that’s how I’m managing in the last week.

First Midwife Appointment

I had my first midwife appointment yesterday, I've been left full of worry is this normal?

She came to my house, she was so lovely I do feel lucky to have such a good midwife. The meeting was about an hour and a half.

There was so much information to take in I was very overwhelmed!
She went through all the scans testing etc, I never knew there could be so much 'wrong' with a baby. I have now booked an early scan I am freaking out.

I've been googling statistics all morning

Toddler asked how I got pregnant 😂

I’m currently 27 weeks pregnant with my third baby. My oldest daughter, who just turned 3 last December, asked me today how her baby brother got into my belly 😂. She caught me off guard, and I didn’t have a quick answer, so I told her to remind me later so I could explain it to her.I need ideas for what I would tell her.

Random question

I am currently experiencing a bit of stress, as I already have a child at home, my menstrual cycle is overdue by two days, I am suffering from stomach discomfort after consuming food and feeling nauseous throughout the day, have a mild cramps, very fatigue, and I noticed a slight pink discharge while wiping, and the pregnancy test I took today showed a negative result. I am quite confused and could use some advice.

Pressure down there?

Hi recently I've noticed when I'm walking I feel pressure 'down there' specifically my urethra, feels like I need to empty my bladder but I don't. Is this just baby's position? It's so uncomfortable

Baby congestion relief

My baby gets very congested particularly at night time and gets a very blocked nose and starts snorting. I’m looking into getting an air purifier/ humidifier to try and help any recommendations/tips?

Will bring up during my HV appointment next week also!
