Has anyone taken baby out of lie flat yet?

Thought I would treat baby to a brief upright position in the pram (still slightly reclined, not bolt upright) and he was so happy watching the world go by 🥹 he's still got another 2w until he is 4 months old but his head control is great. Is there any reason at this age why he can't be out of lie flat? X

My baby girl is 13 weeks and we’ve changed her from bassinet to seat over 2 weeks ago. She hated the bassinet and was crying constantly on walks.

We’ve put a “newborn insert” to her back (so the seating area is no longer 90degrees but is like a slope) and also additional newborn padding so it’s cozy and snug around her body and she loves it. We use fully recline for sleep, and mid recline for walking where she can safely watch around.

I put my little girl in the double with her sister sat up and she loves it, long as they’re well supported it’ll be okay x

Thanks ladies that's super reassuring, he got aggy when I put him back to fully reclined 😂 x

No reassurance from my care team

Hi gals, I’m 34 weeks today and a ftm feeling like I have no reassurance from my care team at all… I went to see my midwife today and mind you the last bit of reassurance I had was at 19 weeks with an anatomy scan, my midwife had informed me more than once I won’t be sent for another scan unless I pay for a private one on my own

At 31 weeks my fundal height was measuring 32cm today I’m measuring 33cm that’s 1 cm difference between 3 weeks this would mean he’s now measuring under… why am I the only one concerned about this? I don’t know if he’s big or small anything haven’t seen him on ultrasound for weeks I’ve had no reassurance that’s he’s growing okay and that my body is doing the right thing for him I was also informed I’m high risk for pre eclampsia I’m on a low dose of aspirin until 36 weeks every appointment they don’t test my urine for protein to check and I go into labour n delivery with concerns and symptoms of pre eclampsia they shut me down tell me it’s acid reflux and send me home every time… has anyone’s antenatal care experience been similar?? I feel so not reassured and under cared for? I’m worried about little man’s growth.

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?
