I get it, we’re in the crying a lot stage and I’m so drained, you got this mamma 🥰 xx
The last 2 weeks, ive felt awful. My little girl is 6 weeks old now and im really struggling mentally with juggling a 9 and 2 year old alongside a baby. I also run my own business too and its ALOT.
I believe our hormones have alot to answer for. Typically it's around 6 week PP that PND can start.
If possible, try and get some time booked out for something you enjoy... kid free.
Im off to a soundbath today for an hour and cant wait.
You're not alone hun, my inbox is open for anyone else in the same boat xx
I completely understand, message me if you want a chat or a vent x
This is my second baby. It does get easier and enjoyable. It's normal to feel this way. I feel it now too.
You got this mama !!! I have had my 2nd just try to enjoy it I know it's harder said than done x

At what age was your baby holding the head independently?
I see lots of babies on social media already holding their head and mine only lifts it briefly for a few seconds on tummy time and for a second when holding her upright.
Also she’s not rolling yet.
Just turned 3 months .

Should I be worried my obgyn is acting sketchy?
I went for my anatomy scan she said baby girl is perfect. But then referred me for a 2nd anatomy scan to check for placental problems. I asked was there signs of any issues and she said it’s just a precaution. But many of my mom friends say they haven’t had to get a 2nd opinion and feel she should have be more straight forward.

Contacting hospital before arrival for labour UK
Hi guys, I was wondering how I’d go about calling the maternity unit at the hospital to let them know I’m in labour in preparation of a water birth. I was told by my midwife to contact them once I start labour but unsure whether I’d call 999 or triage as it wasn’t clear in the conversation.

Baby hates water
My 7 month old hates water, I have tried everything and there is no way he will drink any water at all, just spits it out.
Any recommendation? x

6 weeks post-partum and infection
I had a vaginal birth but had a second degree tear and also had stitches for a vaginal wall repair. Healing has been sore but i'd say with time has got better but this past week i've had green discharge and it has become uncomfortable, I think from wearing some form of pad for the last 6 weeks as they tend to irritate my skin down there? Though I can't not wear one because of the discharge and occasional lochia etc though that is clearing now.
It is the weekend so I'm stuck until Monday now but is there anything I can do? I'm keeping clean and not using soaps down there etc but I think it might need anti-biotics and I'm not exactly keen on having someone look at it🫠
