Anyone else? 🥺😩

Anyone else feeling very low lately? I don’t know whats wrong with me I feel so tired and find myself taking everything ‘seriously’ being sensitive I cant control the way I react to my husband and hes like he cant joke with me anymore. I dont know what to do i find myself panicking. I feel alone in myself. It reminds me of when I am about to come on my period I usually get like this. I have not had a period yet since giving birth. I feel so upset I dont want my baby to see me like this. I feel like such a failure :(.

That is exactly how I feel at the moment I am glad it's not just me

I have been like this too!! ❤️

I think for me part of it is the deep down realisation that this time last year i was waiting his arrival and now its almost his 1st birthday and i just cant comprehend it all!

I also still believe our hormones are not fully back to normal yet, i definitely in the last month have felt a dip in my mood, it can be very lonely and hard xx

It really is! I feel like i should just be silent. Im not the best to be around right now 😩 im glad it’s not just me also!🤗

Hormones are the worst! 😖

If you have anyone you can confide in just to air your thoughts use them! Your feelings are completely valid and sometimes talking it out helps❤️❤️

Yes! It is like I’ve suddenly developed PPD/PPA 10 months later. I am so snappy and irritable.

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 :(

Anyone had a growth scan around these dates?

I’ve got scans;
26+5
27+3
28+5

And just wondering what everyone’s babies weighed on/around these dates ? (And what centiles)

My oldest has a scan at 27+6 so I know roughly with that but interested to know how much growth tends to happen in such a short period ?

HELP PLEASE TRYING FOR AN ALL NATURAL BIRTH

Rest

Anyone else lead a super busy lifestyle?

I am none stop between housework, dog walks, shopping, decorating, my toddler, nursery runs, work etc.

Sometimes I feel a kick and I’m like “oh yeah” because I barely sit down or rest.

Will this lead to any complications it’s generally has my anxiety higher as people keep telling me to rest but it’s not an option, not unless people helped me out 🙈

Middle name

We are fairly convinced we’ve decided on baby girls first name - Josephine (Josie) - but struggling for a middle name.

We’ve already got a boy Oziah (Ozzy) Sampson, and a girl Cassandra (Cassie) Evangeline. Last name beginning with E

Also open to other options all together as backups 😅
