Am I a bad mom?

I was taking my daughter out of her highchair. I took the table off and my mom asked me something so I turned my head and my baby slipped out of the highchair😭 she seems fine but I'm freaking out. Do I still take her to the doctor? There's no marks and she only cried for 10 sec but I'm having a panic attack

If baby is happy & alert again, hasn't been sick & didn't lose consciousness then you don't need to go. Any worries & concerns or you just want to play it safe then go get her checked out, but doesn't sound like anything to worry about.
You're not a bad mom, accidents happen. Everyone has a bad mom story.

This happened to my son when he was about 6 months old. He had a little bloody nose even from his face hitting the floor 😭 he slipped through dad's hands. He was perfectly fine other than a bruise. They are more durable than you think. But yes watch for any changes in eating/drinking/mood,etc. Trust your mom gut 🤍

Have you been intimate with your partner yet?

How is everyone feeling? I was only intimate with my fiancé from last week as I was scared! For the record, I had an episiotomy and recovery was an absolute killer.

Another baby?

Anyone currently considering having a another baby or ttc?
Feb baby was my 3rd, so another would make 4. Am I crazy? Is 4 too many? We have a q7 so car wise is fine, the youngest two would have to share a room a couple year until we buy a 5 bed but thats not the end of the world I dont think!
Do you think im crazy 🤪

Lifting and carrying toddler

Second time mummas, did you/do you still carry your toddler whilst pregnant? I try avoid it as much as I can but my two year old still wants and needs to be carried sometimes. I do occasionally feel pains in my abdomen after I carry her, like an ache or sore pain which I’m hoping is just muscular. I know it’s not ideal but please tell me I’m not doing something bad or wrong!

Intrusive thoughts

I’m 38+5 today and I’m really struggling with intrusive thoughts… I just can’t imagine actually getting to the end of pregnancy and being able to take home a baby. I had 2 back to back miscarriages at 6 weeks before conceiving my current baby and maybe that has something to do with it. I have a planned c-section booked for Sunday and the closer it gets the worse the thoughts are getting and I’m terrified something will happen between now and then. I’m constantly analysing movements, or lack thereof, and I’m driving myself crazy. Has anyone experienced this?
