First solo steps 😭🤍

11 months 8 days and she’s just taken her first wobbly solo steps this evening and I’m a wreck 🥹🥹 Everyday she’s doing something new and I love it so much but it also feels like the baby chapter is really coming to an end and she’s definitely, DEFINITELY, our last baby so it all just feels like a lot emotionally. What a privilege to do this journey and experience all these moments! 🥹🤍

Elective C Section

Hi ladies 👋🏻 I'm planning an Elective c section in August on my first. I'm wondering when does this usually get booked in? My parents live in Ireland and want to come over when baby is born to help. So it would be good to have an idea of when it will be!

Periods after c section

Hi I just got my period 7 weeks after my c section and it’s very heavy is that normal? How was everyone else like? And how long did they last?

Hardest stage so far

Hi everyone FTM here. I’m feeling very overwhelmed with my LG now being able to crawl. She wants to move and stand and walk but gets frustrated with herself. Seems like she’s cried all day every day for the past week. She’s refusing naps, not really hungry and doesn’t really want to “play”. I am really struggling and feeling like I don’t know what I’m doing all over again.

Does anyone have any advice on how I can find a new routine or get used to this? Maybe some daily activities you do with your babies to occupy them? I feel like I’m fighting for my life until bedtime and it’s making me really sad.

Pink discharge

I just went to the toilet and I had pink discharge on my underwear and as I wiped it was a significant amount of pale spotting. Should I be worried? I'm 10 weeks 3 days and my red folder says to only call the triage if I'm over 18 weeks 😭😭😭

Has anyone been given expected birth weight?

My last scan was 33+6 and my boys were 4lb 13 & 5lb 4 . Now I’m being told they’re expected to be 6.5-7lb at birth depending on which day in the 37 weeks they’re born 🫣 (average for this type of twins is 5.5-6lb)

With my oldest I was told he’d be 10lb + at 40 weeks but we only made it to 38+3 and he was 7lb 13oz so not sure how true that wouldn’t been (although his curve was perfectly inline with his birthweight still doesn’t seem correct to me )

Really interested to see what others have been projected to be and if you think it’ll be correct
