My Mothers Day present finally arrived

I’m so excited! Trying to juggle baby and reading a physical book was not going well. Kindle took like 2 weeks to get here because I couldn’t pass up the pink option. 😂

Heatwave

Anyone else absolutely dreading this upcoming heatwave?! Will either be 40 weeks pregnant or with a newborn trying to keep cool - don’t know what’s worse!

I so bad want another baby!!! My daughter is only 3 months old but I am ready. I do want to wait so I truly can enjoy her. My husband and I have been talking about it but we agreed on waiting until my daughter is almost 2. I am already so excited.

‘Borderline’ high blood pressure

I’ve been had readings of blood pressure that’s ‘borderline’ high and one or two in which my diastolic was 90 and over since Friday. I’ve been sent to triage today after seeing my own midwife and was seen Monday, baby’s movements all fine, urine fine, no symptoms but they’ve done bloods and sent me home today with plan for my midwife to see me next week to repeat my BP.
I’m 35 + 2, just wondering if anyone else has had this and what they did? I’m just feeling drained due to worrying on and off and don’t know what to do for the best.
Any input is massively appreciated. Thank you ☺️

Freckles- is it a concern?

I’ve noticed I’ve got freckles/dark spots on my breast which started to appear during pregnancy and now seem to be darker/bigger during breastfeeding/postpartum…I’ve read that the hormones can increase the melanin in the skin but just makes me worry if this is normal and if anyone else has had anything similar?
