How is everyone doing ?

We are in may. I hope everyone delivered April babies. How is postpartum treating you all ?

For me it’s been a roller coaster 2 weeks pp but enjoying motherhood.

Hey, congrats. I had my baby girl 21st April via C-section.
It’s going ok-haven’t really left the house yet 🤣 . Just resting up trying to take it easy so I heal well. Partner is being amazing, currently making a chicken roast!
I’m soooo tired, the longest stretch I’m getting at night is 2 hours. I’m EBF so baby is cluster feeding from 10pm ish… gonna go for a nap soon! Haha x

Congratulations! I was due 25th April and still very much pregnant 🙃 hoping it won't be too much longer xx

Better this time than with our 1st

Just trying to find a balance between ebf the newborn and spending time and keeping routines with our 2yr old

Thankfully day 10 appointment today and we have got back to birthweight so can now feed on demand instead of 2hrly so hoping for a better night sleep this eve 🤞

How is everyone?

Now that all the March babies have been born, I just wondered how everyone was doing?
Me personally, I have good days and bad days but I would say overall mostly good! 8 weeks pp, csection, all healed well and my boy is changing everyday!
I think the hardest thing for me is accepting my new body shape. Ive ordered some clothes that I hope help me bring a bit of confidence back

Postpartum preeclampsia

Pls take me off the ledge. I’m 8 days postpartum I’ve had a headache in my left eyebrow for two days. Today I woke up and it seemed like it finally had gone but now it’s creeping up on my right eyebrow. Meanwhile I’ve been taking my blood pressure and getting readings around 120/90 when usually I’m well below the 120/80 (dia sometimes 87, 88, 90, 92). I’ve talked to my doctor (after getting the 92 reading) and they’ve said to call again if anything went above 140/90 again. It keeps sitting around that 90 number and I’m anxious this could be postpartum preeclampsia? What were your symptoms if you’ve had it, should my bp be extremely high? It’s the persistent headache that is making me worry a lot and it’s not normal for me to have elevated bp readings.

Should I say something…

I’ve just found out that my fiancé was on dating apps around this time last year (a month before we got engaged). I don’t know if anything happened from it, but we’re due our second baby soon and I don’t know if saying something right now is the best idea…
