Fatigue in evenings

Anyone else feel so exhausted in the evenings? Even if been at home all day by the time it gets to around 7pm I just need to sit on the sofa for the rest of the night. I wake up around 6-6.30am everyday. I’ve got some events coming up like a wedding and a dinner out with friends don’t know how I will function.

God same here! Absolutely exhausted by the time little man goes to bed but juggling him being a lot more active, going back to work and nursery runs etc is such a huge mental load! We're all doing a brilliant job, even in an exhausted state 😂

I'm exactly the same. I don't think its helping now its darker so much earlier either. With school runs nursery runs work, managing the house and after school clubs I feel like a taxi driver, mother and house cleaner. Fair to say we all are in the same boat and just remember your doing a great job and if you need an early night so be it x

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.

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.

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.

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.
