Hi everyone!

Just wanted to say hi! EDD Jan 18th. First time mom, I found out at 3 weeks 2 days 🙈 now I’m 4 weeks 3 days. Had my first appointment today, got blood, and met the midwife who will be delivering me. Have another appointment in 2 weeks to see some action and hear a heartbeat!! 🙏 wishing us all safe and healthy pregnancies.

2nd baby and engaged already?

Anyone else on baby number 2 and think baby is already engaged? I’m 32 weeks and everything feels a lot heavier down below today 😬

Pregnancy pillow

Has anyone found a good pregnancy pillow? I have an Ikea one which is flat and does nothing and then bought a baby bub pillow but that is just so uncomfortable 😭

Am I being naive?

I haven't done any official birthing classes ($300+ is just ridiculous) but I'm pretty proactive on YouTube and online article to the point I've started to be bored cuz I have so many "I already know that" moments.

As for anxiety and fear of being in labor idk why but im really not anxious, I kind have a chill, my body is designed to give birth attitude. I have music and pain management techniques memorized and Ive started a daily (more like every 3 days, lol, but im getting better) stretching/exercise routine.

But I honestly can't tell if im being naive or if I really am preparing enough. Any advice?

Baby #2

Heyy everyone, I just got a positive pregnancy test for baby #2. And I’m so excited I had to tell someone! I am only 12dpo and I tested positive already! I am also 12 months post c-section with my first baby.

Struggling

No purpose other than to rant to other mums that will get it. I loved my first pregnancy, maybe I look back at it with rose tinted glasses. While I am B E Y O N D grateful for this pregnancy, I cannot wait to have my body back. I am tired, I hurt, I feel sick, heartburn, can’t sleep, skin itches, bleeding gums, more grey hairs, more skin tags, mouth ulcers, big, slow and uncomfortable. 30 weeks and now struggling to put my own shoes. I am not glowing. 😂😂😂
