Trying to survive third trimester

I’m 30+3, baby is head down and measuring in 94th percentile. I have another growth scan at 36 weeks. This kid is pressing so hard into my cervix, yet simultaneously keeping me from being able to breathe. I’m so nauseous and have slept like crap. How do we survive the last 8+ weeks of this?

Baby #2 anyone?

Hello, anyone thinking of having another baby now? Or is pregnant after having a May 25 baby?

Positive stories please!

Hey! I’m 40 weeks pregnant with my first baby and all the way through pregnancy, and especially for the last few weeks I’ve felt really really anxious about how much my life is going to change.
My husband and I are obviously beyond excited and the pregnancy was fully planned, but all I ever get told by people are ‘jokes’ like, ‘that’s it now your life is over’ and ‘say goodbye to x, y and z’.
Also all I ever read on forums like this are the negative / hard bits.
Obviously I’m fully aware our life is going to change completely, but hearing nothing but negative things really takes its toll sometimes, and makes me worry that I’m not ready for this - being 40 weeks it’s making me panic about going into labour because that means that it’s the ‘end’ of my life.

So I guess I’d just like some positive thoughts and encouraging words about what’s to come rather than just negative 😇

Thanks guys!

Heads up about NIPT

I had my first OB appt for baby #2 last week. Am beyond excited!! With that being said my doctor gave me a heads up that sometimes the NIPT test isn’t always accurate for young moms (I’m 22). I didn’t do the NIPT test with my first so this is very new information to me.

Has anyone else’s doctor told you this? And if they did, was the gender part of your test still correct? We’re planning on announcing as soon as we find out the gender as I’m already starting to show, so I’m just really hoping that my age doesn’t mess with the results

When did you find out you were pregnant ?

I want an April 2027 baby so I’m just wondering, if your due date is before April 15th when was your last period & when did you find out you were pregnant?
