Is it just me that forgets to eat? It's 4.30pm UK time and I've completely forgot to eat breakfast or lunch. My son has eaten a shed load of food but I've drank a coffee this morning and nothing else since. I just remembered whilst my son was inhaling his afternoon snack.
I just don't feel hungry or thirsty. Someone tell me it's not just me?

Ive done the exact same thing every day. My son and the dog are fed but I always forget about myself, until my partner ask if I've eaten 😂

Yep! Everyone around me eats like cows, but i just forget or dont feel any urge to eat or drink anything.

Mainly drinking enough. I remember to eat because I get neasous if I don't eat

Have you ever considered that you might be neurodivergent? That is a sign of Interoception, which means you don’t feel your body’s necessities such as hunger, sleep, pee or poop, thirst… until is too much or you get a reminder. It can be just one of those, a few or all. I have it myself and all you can do is set reminders or something like that to make you remember instead of going too hungry or whatever.

Nah, if I'm making food for the kids, I'm making food for me at the same time. I'm always hungry though 😅
Am I the only person with an anterior placenta who just felt there baby start kicking and now when ever I wake up I struggle to go back to sleep becuase baby is very very active and no stop kicking me ???? Not that I dont enjoy it i do but I still want sleep. Also it is only me who has like 3 months left and can only drink coke cola

Hey mums, 20 days post emergency c section after a failed induction at 39 weeks. I experienced placental abruption and then developed sepsis after birth spent 5 days in hospital in total.
I was in so much pain and experienced a lot of trauma from the c-section including being on oxygen etc. Did anyone else experience anything similar and how did you find recovery? It’s been tough🩵

Hi guys. Had my anamoly scan today. They informed it will be baby girl. But they checked once and then confirmed. But is there any chance it could be wrong?
Though I am happy to have a girl and preferred to have girl but I wasn’t convinced by my midwife as she checked only once🫣

Looking for anyone who’s had a similar experience! Up until now my baby has been very active through the day with strong punches and kicks but over the past 48 hours, the movements have changed to more gentle rolls and bulges. I also think he’s sitting low as I’ve been feeling pressure and some aching down there. Would appreciate hearing if anyone’s had anything similar!

This is my second baby and I had a traumatic birth with my first I’m now 4 days overdue and I had a growth scan at 39+6 and baby’s predicted weight was around 8lbs 15oz, I’ve now been told I’m at greater risk of shoulder dystocia, an anal tear and or needing another episiotomy. They can’t book me in for a c section but also not sure if that’s what I want, I’m already 2cm dilated when I had my sweep but don’t know if my body isn’t naturally going into labour as I’m so scared.
