Appetite

Is anyone else really struggling with food in the 3rd trimester? I’m 31 weeks and I either don’t feel hungry at all or I’ll be starving and make something then when I start eating I’m full after a couple of bites. It’s so frustrating. I’ve also been getting heartburn even though I take omeprazole. Eating gaviscon double action like they’re going out of fashion🤣

What’s something nobody told you about pregnancy until you experienced it yourself? 😭🤰🏽💕

I’m a first-time mama and I’m learning so much every day 🥹💕 I’d love to connect with other moms and hear your experiences. Let’s support each other through this journey! 🤰🏽🫶🏽

Nub theory

Anyone get a wrong nub theory prediction in the past?!

Pregnancy and blood thinners

After my last pregnancy they discovered a clot in my lung post C-section, I was very unwell and felt awful. Any future pregnancies I will now be considered high risk and on blood thinners as well as the likelihood of reoccurring gestational diabetes. My question is, can I hear from some of you who were on blood thinners the entire pregnancy and how this effected birth/c sections? I really want another child but genuinely scared that I will bleed to 💀

Third trimester 😭

Hey, mommy friends! 🫶🏽 I’m currently in my third trimester with baby #3, due December 7th, and whew… why is it SO hard this go-round?! 😩

Are there any other mamas just pushing through these last few weeks, too? I would genuinely love to connect with someone who understands this season so we can get through it together. We can be exhausted together, talk through the mood swings, complain about all the aches and pains, and still share those little moments of excitement as we get closer to meeting our babies. 🥹

Honestly, I’ve been feeling pretty lonely this pregnancy, even though I have a super supportive husband and two little ones who are always trying their best to help Mommy out. 🫶🏽 Sometimes, I think you just need someone who’s going through the same thing and can truly relate to how you’re feeling.

So, if you’re in your third trimester, expecting around the same time, or just need a mama friend to lean on, let’s connect! We don’t have to go through these last few weeks feeling alone. We can encourage each other, check in on one another, and count down to meeting our little blessings together. 🤰🏽

Just found out we’re having a baby girl 🩷

So excited that we just had a private gender scan at 15+4! Confirmed everything was okay with little girl, strong heartbeat of 149bpm and all her organs, bones etc are looking good and healthy so far!
I have my 16 week midwife appointment this afternoon as well, so feels like the most exciting new-mum day ever!
Just wanted to share how excited I am!
Any other early April mums know the gender yet? 🩷🩷

Early gender test

Has anyone done the early gender blood tests? I was told you can do them as early as 7 weeks just wanted to see if anyone has had them done before and if they turned out to be accurate ?
