Im due on the 9th October and started buying a few bits now xx trying to space it out so it’s a bit more affordable- often pram places will store them for you for a few months too xx

We started getting a few bits too after our 12 week scan. Mainly Vinted 2nd hand stuff but want to spread it out so it didn’t feel so overwhelming, it’s been wonderful to see the lovely bits amongst all the nausea! Haven’t brought anything electrical/new/expensive that couldn’t be returned if needed feels too risky at this stage xx

Am I the only last time pregnant mom...

Who isn't going to miss being pregnant, miss giving birth, or the thought this is the last newborn. Like I have no sad feelings about it being my last. At this point I'm looking forward to the future when my baby will be over, and this is all just past memory.

Anxiety

Has anyone got any tips for managing anxiety in the early days? I’m only 3w6d so reallyyyy early and I’m struggling with having faith that things are doing what they should. It’s my second pregnancy and I had this anxiety with my first too.

26 weeks and 4 days

I just really want to see my baby now, obviously I want her to be as healthy as she can be but I’m really struggling with pregnancy from the start and especially now we aren’t having scans then I feel disconnected from her and I just want to see her now and have her in the flesh rather than just a photo on a screen.

I just don’t know if I’m alone in this feeling and I just want to talk to people about it. Especially with being a first time mum.
