Chemical Pregnancy/Early Miscarriage Support

Lost

It’s been a month since I lost my pregnancy this would have been my second baby, would have love my daughter to have been an older sister, the guy I am with the father of this second child isn’t talking to me about how he feels, I want to know why are his feelings about losing his first baby, does this pain get any easier? What are some ways to cope with the grief part?

Fucked off

I don’t feel like I’m a good mum, I cannot stand my child clinging onto me/screaming I literally want to smack my head against a wall every time she makes that screeching noise I am seriously exhausted and I have no help whatsoever.

Help…Normal tantrum or something more?

My daughter is having the worst meltdowns recently. I’m talking to the point where people are starting to stop outside my house and looking in with concern. The anxiety and humiliation leaving the house sometimes is exhausting. Kicking and screaming at the top of her voice in public and having everyone in the street looking at me, is a different kind of embarrassment and guilt. I’ve had a few conversations recently with various people about seeing someone professional about mt daughter’s behaviour. She’s also started using noises and moans to gesture what she wants, coming from an incredibly smart 3 year old who has been speaking full sentences since she was two. We have regressed in verbal communication, and the meltdowns are getting so horrifically bad. She also tugs at her clothes when distressed or pulls on her fingers. There is absolutely ZERO reasoning with her when she is like this, it’s just constant screaming. I’m a first time mum and just at a complete loss.

Experiences of epidural

Hi, I’m just wanting to ask those who have had epidurals during child birth. How were they for you, are you pleased you had one, what was recovery like etc. ♥️

Baby isn’t pooing

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a bit of advice/reassurance from anyone who’s experienced something similar.

My baby girl is 8 days old and I’m currently combination feeding, breastfeeding, expressed milk and formula. I’ve really been trying to establish breastfeeding over the last couple of days, but it’s been a struggle since she was born.

She hasn’t had a poo for about a day and a half, and I’m wondering whether this could mean she isn’t getting enough milk directly from me. I’ve been giving expressed milk and formula this afternoon so I can keep an eye on exactly how much she’s taking.

She seems otherwise completely well — her temperature is fine, she’s feeding every few hours, sleeping well between wake windows, isn’t showing any obvious discomfort and her tummy isn’t hard.

I’ve already spoken to the midwife about it a couple of days ago and I’ll be speaking to them again tomorrow morning, but I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s experienced something similar, especially with it being overnight. ❤️

For my boy mamas, i dont know if this is normal or not but both my boys (4 and 2) are constantly touching eachothers pvt part and laughing and saying penis penis, ive told them off many times and said you cant do that but they wont stop.

I know for them its a joke but im worried what is it turns into something that isnt funny one day. Is this normal?

Sex after giving birth

Is this normal.. I gave birth beginning of July and as soon as I felt ready to have sex I’ve communicated to my partner,
Since then nothing, he’s not even trying.. I don’t understand I feel like he doesn’t want to have sex with me anymore..
Moms how long after did you have your first sexual encounter.? Just wondering I know we are all different..
