So y'all I just went to the DR and found out I'm 1 cm dilated. Can hear some of y'all stories of when y'all gave birth? Was it quick after you found out you were 1cm dilated or did it take a few more weeks to give birth ?

Bleeding After Sex

I’m 12weeks postpartum and i noticed that anytime I have sex I get some bleeding after words, it’s mostly brown in colour and it’s not heavy enough to fill a pad. I mostly use pant liner. After some days it stops, then when I have sex again i start to bleed again. (Same Color, same amount of blood). Should I be worried? Is this normal ?

Tiger Balm?

I mentioned to my OB/GYN that I had been using tiger balm from time to time for lower back pain and she looked at the ingredients and said that she would recommend against it but honestly is anybody truly listening to that advice or are we still using tiger balm?

Spina bifida diagnosis

Hey all, we just had a private gender scan which revealed spina bifida on our baby, it was so scary as the staff didn’t know how to act. I’m now just waiting and waiting for my useless hospital to get someone in to confirm this and discuss further (we are in limbo, they won’t let us use another local hospital)
We are scared stiff and totally unaware about what the future holds… is there any advice for us/ any other uk sb mums who would like to connect?
