Leaving baby..

Has anyone left their baby with their partner for the whole day yet? I’m working 7am-7pm today and feeling so guilty 😣😣

Yes, multiple times. What are you feeling guilty about? X

I just feel like it’s a long time to leave him for I guess! Feel a bit like I should be at home with him instead of away because that’s the right mum thing to be doing ? I’m not really sure ?! Xx

Yes my partner is amazing . I’ve also left both my babies (2under 2 ) with my parents . Don’t feel guilty . You are allowed to time out xx❤️

I felt like that at first with my 3 year old when I went back to work and within a few months I was gone for 3 months in another country and I'm looking to be away for 6 months from January next year. Just think of it that you're working to provide and give them everything they deserve x

Limited movements - anterior placenta

I’m 23 weeks on Monday and I still haven’t felt a kick. I wasn’t panicking because I have an anterior placement but now I’m getting closer to 24 weeks I’m starting to worry a little ☹️ has anyone else had the same? I thought I felt some flutters but I’m not sure, probably just wind! I guess I wait until 24 weeks and then contact the midwife?

Anyone braved the beach? 31 weeks 😅

Told my son we need to come up with something fun to do for dada this weekend and he's now stuck on the idea of going to the beach. My husbands up for it and I like the idea in theatre but also havent had a day out in months cause of how uncomfortable I am 🙈 also worried about burning as we dont have an umbrella and I know youre more likely to burn when youre pregnant. Being able to sit in water all day sounds good though 😅

Struggling with toddler + pregnant

Please tell me I’m not the only one 😩
I have an EXTREMELY energetic 2 year old and am early pregnant and it’s A LOT!
I’m finding myself exhausted and struggling every day. I’m very high risk pregnancy which is causing me massive anxiety in itself.
I’m flinching every time my toddler goes to jump on me, as he does a lot, I’m nauseous all day and night and have no appetite so don’t eat much. My patience is lower than usual due to hormones. Everything feels like a massive struggle right now! Anyone else?

Down syndrome screening results

I feel so anxious. I found out on Friday that my result came back with a 1 in a 150 chance that my baby could have down syndrome.

I really don't know how to feel about it and I'm sooo anxious about it. I've had people tell me that it will still be a cute baby if it is and that it will still be loved but am I wrong to feel like this. I cried so much when I found out that I feel so bad about doing that. I'm 13 weeks and so much has already happened such as I've got gestational diabetes which I found out at 9 weeks now this. I'm really struggling with how to feel 😩.
My husband told me that if I don't want to go through with it that I can get rid of the baby but that isn't a choice I can't do that.

Just can't stop thinking about it all, struggling to sleep, relax or just be happy atm with all the unknown 😭

Urghh I’m so angry

I’ve woken up early to take this test in secret and I was so excited. I’ve been all sneaky tip toeing around the house. The egg timer appeared so I flipped it over because I didn’t want to just sit there staring at it while it developed. I turn it over and it’s a blank screen 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩 I literally have zero other tests in the house.
