Exhausted

Second time round for me so it’s probably because of having a toddler also, but I don’t remember being this exhausted the first time! I’m 7 weeks but so tired already! Have such mum guilt when I can’t do everything with my son and feel awful to admit screen time has been used more so far just so I can sit down at times

Exactly the same here! It’s so tiring with a toddler, mine has dropped his nap too 😅

thankfully mine still naps so I can try and sneak a nap in on the days he does at home! Definitely took being pregnant for granted the first time round compared to now 😂

I am the same 😫 my little boy has just gone 3 and is full of life. I feel so guilty too when I ask him if he wants to go on his tablet 😩

I’m just hoping once into the 2nd trimester I get a bit more life in me!

yeah me too I work with three year olds too so am shattered come bed time 😅 hope it gets a little easier for you xx

oh god I can imagine! I’m just about to start an apprenticeship in a nursery in a couple of weeks and not sure how I’m going to manage yet 😂 and you too sweet!xx

I’m the same. So so tired this time. I can barely keep my eyes open by time my partner gets in from work xx

Saaaame I have a 2 yr old and we are watching 2 princess movies a day! I feel terrible but I am soooooo tired! I don’t know what else to do

I have an 8 month old so it’s very hard indeed x

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

2nd pregnancy after c section

I’m not planning on getting pregnant anytime soon but in the future possibly. I just wanted to know how is pregnancy after c section like my fear is having to go through another emergency operation or even putting strain on my incision during pregnancy

Baby Movements

Hello, I’m a FTM currently 18W5D pregnant. I’ve been getting this tugging feeling in my stomach after I eat, it’s uncomfortable but not painful. I don’t know whether that’s the baby moving or round ligaments pain.

I’ve also been getting round ligament pain which is either a sharp stabbing pain or a stretching sensation. These happens whether or not I’ve eaten while the tugging feeling is only after I’ve eaten.

So, could the tugging feeling be the baby or something else.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Anyone getting a private scan at exactly 6weeks

I just wanna know my baby is actually there after losing my first at 5w
