Just one of those days 🄲

Having one of those days where baby girl does not want to be put down at all, she’s 5 weeks old today and I know she needs me but at what point am I going to be able to take a sip of my coffee or have a shower😩 it probably sounds very selfish but as my partner is at work, and we have recently moved away from my family it has become a lot. Looks like I’m using the carrier for the rest of the day until the hubby gets home šŸ¤žšŸ»

We're in a similar situation, 4 weeks old and he has been crying all day and night if we tried to put him down, we're exhausted! Fortunately my husband is at home today, maybe tonight we'll try taking shifts but we're so sleep deprived šŸ«©šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

I used to have my little one in his carrier so I could eat lunch/ have a sit down. I never did it but others recommended putting your hot drink in a thermos so it stays hot.
You've got this!

First Trimester trenches

I am currently 6 weeks and 3 days. Has anyone hit the trenches yet? I literally hit 6 weeks and have been in bed ever since. Trying to understand how I am meant to work and function for the next few weeks/months šŸ˜‚

Hospital stay!

I’m currently in labor and delivery due to high blood pressure at 30 weeks with twins! My doctor said that the concern is only me and the babies are both doing alright but I’m now classified as severe preeclampsia. I’m staying until I deliver which could be 2 days from now or 2 weeks from now. However long they can prolong it. This is my first pregnancy and I’m definitely terrified of how it will go and I’m scared of the pain and anxiety, plus not knowing when things will happen since it feels they’ve emphasized that things can happen quickly and things can change in a second for my situation to be rushed. Any advice on how to handle this? I believe that one baby (baby A) is head down, the other is breech at the moment, so I’m hoping for a vag birth but I obviously that a c section might be needed. I was going to start labor prepping this week but since I’m admitted I had no time to prep physically or mentally and it’s bothering Me lol. I feel like my body already somewhat failed by being in this position right now so Just looking for advice or words of encouragement

August moms at 22 weeks? Do you guys feel the same?

I was pretty chill in the 1st trimester and beginning of 2nd trimester thinking everything will go well. Now while I almost complete 23rd week, my baby started moving and kicking very often which I take as a very good sign. But I’m too anxious of what will happen in the coming weeks. Despite of good signs, I’m still not confident and I live in the fear of ā€œis my baby okayā€. I don’t understand why I’m anxious despite of everything being okay, but I just can’t think positively.

Baby low down

Is anyone else feeling totally paranoid about where baby is. This is my 2nd and I can literally feel her head down below and scared because this only happened with my first before she popped out. I feel like I'm going to be sat at home on my own and boom she's arriving and I'm birthing in my living room

Anyone getting Brixton hicks already?

I had them quite frequently in my 3rd trimester, in my first pregnancy and this pregnancy, they started at 20 weeks. I'm not concerned.. Just didn't realise they started this early
