Anyone else miss that magical feeling of being pregnant & giving birth?

I wish I could go back to those days of having midwife appointments & scans & even giving birth, I loved it all. Baby is now a month old & those feelings have worn off & im just tired & stressed & emotional all the time. Which is weird because when I was pregnant, these were the days I was dreaming of. But now I’m dreaming of those days again. The buildup & excitement.

Postpartum Stories 💐

Hi Mamas, I’d love to hear your postpartum stories. 🩵

What’s something that really stuck with you emotionally during those first weeks or months?

The good, the bad, the unexpected… what do you still remember?

I struggled with prenatal + postpartum anxiety myself, and I know how much those early experiences can stay with you.

Blood pressure

Anyone in here dealt with high BP/pre E? Would love to hear your experience. For the last few weeks I’ve been getting these weird episodes where I’m doing something and my head will start pounding, face gets hot, and chest feels weird and tight and then it’ll go away after I sit for a few min. I got a home BP cuff and started checking during these episodes and sure enough my BP has been spiking. It’s usually only my diastolic that spikes and goes anywhere from 89-108, and my systolic always stays either low or slightly elevated but never above 140. I thought maybe my home cuff was off so I went to Walmart and checked on Tuesday and got a reading of 137/91, so I went to OB triage that night just to be send home an hour later after fine readings after I was there resting. I’m confused why only my diastolic seems to be spiking and why only when I try and do things, and yet my BP is totally normal when at rest. Has anyone dealt with this before?
