Anyone else feeling great with loads of energy? I’m just about climbing the Walls these days 😂 House is spotless been washing down all doors and walls today and so much more - all baby clothes washed and ironed and i am starting the babies nursery tomorrow - i wonder where all this energy is coming from?
Now just waiting for little one to get here 🩷

Not at all. Fancy bottling it and sharing it around? 😂 I'd pay good money for some energy!! Xx

Same as Kirsty here 🤣

I've spent this week, repainting all the skirting boards and doors 😭😭😭

😂😂 yes skip it, just the refresh is worth it

Has anyone moved their baby from the bassinet to the pram seat yet? I know it says 6 months but depending on head/ neck strength. Wondering how early this can be done. My LO has bad reflux and hates the bassinet so being able to move from the bassinet to the seat would probably help her a lot!

This might sound silly but does anyone know what it feels like to have your waters broken ? Does it feel like you’ve peed your self or a gush of water ? I’m just wanting to know what to expect when it does happen 😅 or does it feel different for everyone?

I’m expecting my first baby in around 6 weeks, I’ve always planned on a natural birth, I’m low risk, my birth plan states no intervention unless medically necessary for most issues… but now I’m getting closer I’m considering a planned C-section because I’m seeing that there are risks involved both ways, but with a C section there isn’t potentially 48+ hours of excruciating pain, and there isn’t the risk of tearing… I know recovery isn’t easy, but 1 in 4 births end in emergency c section these days anyway and I’d rather it be planned than rushed… but then am I just being a chicken? I don’t know what to do.

I am officially eight months pregnant, and I have absolutely ZERO energy right now. 😩😂 Even the simplest tasks feel so difficult, and honestly, I feel really guilty sometimes because I can’t do all the things I used to do with my 3-year-old like I want to. 🥺💙
He wants to jump on the trampoline, throw the ball around, play basketball, run around and just do all the fun, physical things that toddlers love to do. 🏀🏃♂️ And while my husband has been SO helpful and has really stepped up, I still find myself wishing I could be the one doing those things with him. ❤️
I’ve heard so many people say that having a toddler and an infant is actually easier than being pregnant with a toddler, and I REALLY hope that’s true. 😂🤞 Because I’m normally a pretty active person, and right now I just don’t feel like myself at all.
Pregnancy is beautiful, but man… the last stretch is HARD. 😅 I’m ready to have this baby, get my energy back, and feel like myself again! 🥰🍼💙
Anyone else feeling that way too??? 🙃🥲
