Protein

I’m trying to lose 10 pounds eating in a calorie deficit. I found that eating protein curbs my sugar cravings and want to incorporate protein in my breakfast. I usually have a toast with butter and jam and cup of coffee ~250 calories. Any recipe ideas that would incorporate protein that doesn’t involve me eating salty in the morning that isn’t too calorie dense? Any egg based (sweet) quick meals I can make?

Baby coming early...

Update: I've now had a bloody show and contractions are back a little stronger...

Hey everyone,

I'm 36+6 today, little man due 15th May, but I don't think we will make it to May...

I can't remember the timeline of things happening with my first baby other than when my waters went.

But last night I had tightenings that weren't the normal Braxton Hicks. BH usually happens at the top, once or twice a day. Last night the tightenings were happening from the bottom and spreading upwards. Semi regularly from 6pm-12am roughly. I know that part is normal...

Then I woke up this morning and went for a wee and my mucus plug has decided to vacate the building 🫠🤣 I'm now getting more tightenings low down and the pain in my inner thighs has increased - something else I didn't get with my first.

Anyone else in this boat right now? Or can you remember roughly how long it took from mucus plug coming away to labour starting?

Thank you ❤️❤️

C section

Since having a C-section, has anyone else felt like this?

After I eat, I sometimes feel really weak and heavy, like my body just slows down and even my posture feels off. I’m about 4 months postpartum and it’s still happening.

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or knows what it could be? 🤍

Sitting

Anyone else’s baby not sitting unaided yet? He’ll sit good if I loosely hold his hips or shoulders but will lean too far forward and fall over if I let go! I know every baby is different but constantly worried he’s behind!
