How do you moms stay regulated throughout the day? Kids can feed off of our moods and energy but it has been such a struggle for me to not lose my cool at times. I rarely get time to myself or a break so I feel like this could be a big part of it as well.

Yeah its so hard.
I can Only really do it through, getting sleep, eating well, taking rests and having some space (even if that means we use tablet etc for ours to have sime screen time so i can just have a break)
Breathwork/ working on my own breathing

Its really so hard. Even then its hard

Man it is a struggle, I don't remember what regulated feels like lol

Walking away. Also talking to myself lol. I'll say kind things to myself in the other room. Like "don't take it personal, it's all gonna be fine in a minute" ect ect.
It also helps to vent.
My therapist visit weeks I feel a lot more calm than the weeks I don't chat w her

Thank you ladies, maybe it would be good to look into a therapist for myself as well

I've been thinking about that too

C - section

Hello lovelies, I’m getting closer to my date of c section.

Can I ask how it all went for you? I felt prepared and now I have this awful feeling what if I bleed out! I’m sure that’s not the case. But I just wondered how it went, and how the aftermath was. I have seen on social media people say it’s horrendous but then I speak to friends and family and they’re like yeah it’s not easy but you can cope! You can walk, etc. I think it’s the unknown… lol!

Also were you all sick during your procedure and did you all get terrible trapped gas? If so what tips do you have xx

Has anyone started to plan out their first birthday yet lol I know it’s a little bit early but I like to plan ahead. I already have a theme picked out.

😂😂I am thinking about Sesame Street and Toy story as a theme

20 week anatomy scan for baby girl today 🥰💕🌷

So grateful everything was perfect with little miss baby, she’s right on track around 20-21 weeks, can’t wait to meet my baby girl! 😇🌸🙏🏻

This is a bit strange.. but hear me out

I am 36 weeks and 4 days today.
I had that feeling, you know when you are trying to take a tampon out on your end of period and it kind of hurts because the tampon is dry? I had that sensation today?

Now I feel like I have to push something about my vagina? It kinda tickles but uncomfortable. I’m not having any pains at all anywhere btw so can’t be baby ??

Implant

Hi mamas I have a problem, I have the implant in again, I had it in before was in for 6 years new rules now, not a single problem no periods nothing, got it re fitted this time I have been bleeding non stop noticed on Friday my arm was sore and was swollen I thought it was from work, turns out my implant has moved up my arm and it’s not producing the right hormones 🤢 I woke up yesterday to the bruising on my arm (picture inserted) the pain I am in is so bad, I am worried about having sex again due to getting pregnant 🤦‍♀️🙈 can someone help me, I am going to hospital tomorrow morning to see if they can help me I need this out 🙈🤔

Girl names

We have an Elsie and we nickname her “Elsa” like queen elsa from frozen

If we have a girl my husband would love a spin on “anna” without actually calling her Anna lol

What names are similar to Anna / could be a play on words?

I’ve said Aria but I don’t know any others
