Just wondering…

Anyone else having a surprise? 💛

I would love to do this but unfortunately I’d never be able to. I think people who have a surprise are amazing!!! Some serious self control hahaha

Both 💙🩷

We are having a surprise too! We kept our first a surprise until birth and it was so amazing. My instinct thought she was a boy the whole pregnancy so when she was born I couldn’t believe it 😆

I wanted to have a surprise but my husband didn’t want so was like it’s pointless you know and I don’t know … I was told by MIL when you don’t know forget a bit about the pain while giving birth and you focus shift on wanting to know the gender lol

We had a surprise with our first but I always thought he was a boy, this time I’m convinced it’s a girl so I guess we’ll see when they are born x

Not as excited about second baby?

This is my second baby - my first is 17 months and so a complete whirlwind at the moment. He’s still a terrible sleeper and can be a handful but 90% lovely 😅

With my first we tried for years and from the moment we found out we were giddy with excitement. With the second we fell pregnant first try and I’m not feeling as excited… I’m 17 weeks.

I don’t know if it’s because I don’t have time to be excited as such as all my thoughts are with the toddler, or if it’s because I’m exhausted from the lack of sleep, or if the excitement will simply come especially when I start to get a bump etc. If I look to the future and think about the bond my children will hopefully have and the family trips etc then I’m excited, but I’m just not feeling excited right now to have a newborn added to the already exhausted state (we thought we would have to try for years again to conceive - not get lucky first time, hence why we started trying now)

Anybody else feel like this if on their second or more pregnancy?!

2nd pregnancy.. Not nesting, not ready

Busy taking care of a toddler. Mainly focused on setting up childcare for when the new baby turns 1 year old. We don’t have a name picked out, no nursery, no car seat bought. Just feeling more relaxed this time, not sure if that’s good or bad haha

prenatal

at how many weeks did yall start taking prenatals, i took it for one night and the next day i felt so horrible 😭😭😭 but i ended up buying the gummies im just scared to start them!!! help 😫🤦🏾‍♀️

Anyone pregnant with number 2 and showing?

I’m pregnant with my second baby and it’s insane how much of a bump I already have compared to my first pregnancy. Will be 13 weeks tomorrow and I’m curious if anyone else has had the same?

Glucose test

Hi mamas! 💕 I had my 1-hour glucose test today, and my result came back over 200 😭 I’m honestly a little worried. Has anyone else had a result this high? Were you diagnosed with gestational diabetes right away, or did your doctor have you do the 3-hour test? I’d love to hear your experiences! ❤️

High blood pressure

I'm currently omw to L&D at the hospital due to hypertension. It's been a steady 150/100 and if I do anything it climbs. I'm so scared because my BP has never been that high, it's actually typically lower end. I don't have any other symptoms. Can someone tell me their experience and what the treatment was?
