Bright red lochia

I’m 4 weeks pp and have not stopped bleeding. It’s very light now and I can even use panty liners (ran out of pads one day) but it’s still bright red and stringy when I wipe. Apparently it’s meant to not be bright red but brown/yellow now. Does anyone else have this?
It can’t be my period because I never stopped bleeding and it’s not a flow and I’m EBF.

How are we dealing with the exhaustion?!

How are we all dealing with the exhaustion??? Baby is 7weeks old and I feel I haven't had a full night sleep in months (which is technically true as I didn't sleep great in the third trimester).

Baby boy does to a chunk of sleep most nights from around 9/10 - 2/2:30 but then can be really unsettled after 3. I know I'm lucky that he does a chunk of sleep but I'm sick of people telling me that because I still feel absolutely wrecked from tiredness!

Also sick of people telling me I look great because I really don't feel it!

Sick of being pregnant!!

Hiya everyone FTM here! and as the title states, i'm sick of being pregnant😩🥲

I’m currently 36w and 3d pregnant and i want it to end so badly!

Baby is currently measuring 4w ahead of what he's meant to be which is fine (i am 5ft 4inch and my partner is 5ft 7inch but i come from a family of people who are 6ft+ so knew there's a possibility) i know i shouldn't rely on the scans as they're inaccurate but it's a worry😅

Last time i got my scan the ultrasound tech told me i wouldn't need to go to the maturnity unit this time but possibly next time (this Wednesday) i'm unsure on why id need to go up there?

I also have a midwife appointment tomorrow to talk about my birth plan. would i be silly to asked to be induced?

I’ve hated every part of pregnancy and honestly enjoyed it for 2 or 3 weeks at most which makes me feel so horrible and ungrateful but, i just cannot stand the pain! the lower back pain is killing me off, same with the pelvic pain and pressure it honestly is starting to hurt to walk or do anything in day to day life. i'm also experiencing nausea again and i HATE it!! im having trouble sleeping too and it's definitely taking a toll on me now.

I had it put down to being dramatic (maybe i am) as i've never been through this before but i honestly feel so helpless and useless, also crying over the silliest things again and honestly it’s annoying me🤣

I’m a stay at home but i'm not doing much around the house when my partner goes to work all day and i physically cannot do anything as it causes too much pain. i cannot help but cry because i'm feeling worthless🥲

Baby keeps trying to come early.

Hey yall! Anyone else baby trying to make an early appearance? I am due July 24 and he has been trying to escape since April. I am now on complete bed rest even walking around the house I just start randomly contacting. Look at all that hair in the 4d!

Trying to get in shape

Hey loves I’m trying to start getting my body right but I don’t know how or where to start. Is anyone able to guide me? maybe be my diet buddy and my exercise buddy. I’m just not sure how to do anything for my body after a c section. Not being able to feel that portion of my stomach is so weird, especially being a first time mom.

Gender scan uncertainty

I had my gender scan at 15w GA in WTTW and was told it’s a boy… I don’t know what I’m looking for but my boys scans did not look like this one and my friends due in July and was scanned at 15 weeks and her gender scan looks the same as my previous pregnancies… (I have twin boys and she’s having a boy) so I’m so unsure about the decision on this scan!

I’m probably wishful thinking as I’d love a little girl but thought I’d post for any advice or what you think? I haven’t got any girls to compare
