Together or Separate 1st birthday

So I recently left my now ex partner and we’ve got a 10 month old… I’m just curious is it better to do one party or two separate ones? 🫠🫠 it’s still fresh but we are obviously having to communicate still- but we are hoping to remain friends in a way lol I’m just not sure which is smarter to do

If you can do one, then do one! You don’t have to love it necessarily but if you think it will ease tensions and you can enjoy your kiddos birthday together then do so for the future birthdays! If you can’t do that, then do two xx

If you can manage a day together in a happy civil manner, do it together. If theres a risk of an negative vibe, dont!

Me and my ex seperated 1.5 months before my 1st kids 2nd bday and it was frosty, spent the day together and now I wish we didnt x

I would do one. It’s easier,cheaper more family oriented and better for the baby. A lot of 1 year olds already get tired and worked up with the loudness especially singing happy birthday so I would make it a one time thing if you all both could come together to do! I hope it goes well whatever you all think is best for yourselves and baby!

Reduced movements

Baby hadn’t moved for about 2 hours (that I can be sure of) but has now got hiccups and moving slightly again. Should I still go to triage or is that enough for things to be ok?

Growth scan

Just had a growth scan 35 + 2 and they said baby is weighing 3.5lbs, I had a growth scan at 28 weeks and he was 3lbs then. I’m back for a scan in 2 weeks but they said if he drops again they will look to induce me at 37-38 weeks now I’m scared!

Is anyone super sweaty down there?

I am around 21 weeks now, doing shopping today and was genuinely panicking my waters had leaked. Rang the local antenatal assessment and was suggested to change, pad up and monitor for an hour and go in to be checked if necessary. Been monitoring with toilet paper wads (as I didn't have maternity pads this early on!) and regular checking and luckily I think everything is okay... But seriously, was it just sweat??! Has anyone else experienced this?

Forgetting to eat and drink? Is it just me?

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?

Gestational diabetes

Please share your labor and delivery experience. I have it under control, have gained less weight compared to my others, don't need meds, and baby isnt showing any signs of being a big baby. I am hoping I can still go naturally, instead of being induce and definitely no c section
