Asprin while pregnant

Has anyone else been prescribed 150mg of asprin during pregnancy? Im currently 13+5 have a long history of losses so far everything's looking perfect, but yesterday at my dating scan I was prescribed asprin because of my babies being born small? Im also on progesterone that I take twice a day. Apparently the asprin helps blood flow to the placenta and can possibly help prevent small babies.. but im terrified of taking it! I know alot of people have had it before when prescribed, but im so scared that taking it is going to cause a loss after seeing our baby thriving so much. What do I do? Is it safe, anyone had any experiences?

I don’t know anything about the risks of taking it, I’m 13+6 and I was prescribed it at my booking appointment because of risk of preeclampsia so I’m taking it ☺️

How is everyone feeling?

Hey, how is everyone feeling? Ive been feeling fine all through until now. Im absolutley hating the experience now, im so uncomfortable, pressure is insane, lightening crotch is killing me, and I feel like im counting down the days.

I cannot wait to feel the relief of having my baby in my arms and no longer in my body!

Is anyone else at this stage where theyre feeling completely done and just want it to be over? :(

Gender test

Bought one of these for fun 🤭 we don’t find out until August and I know it’s not scientifically proven to be correct but just for fun! Anyone else done one?

Last few weeks!!!

I had my birth plan appt yesterday and for the first time in 8 months, I feel excited about the baby. Sounds awful but it’s been such a lonely journey. My ex has got worse with his abuse over the last few weeks and I’m just mentally worn out. So having this chat yesterday and saying what I want just felt so good. I’m giving birth in a midwife baby led unit so it’s a little new for me, but the support and the way they do things just makes me so excited. Yes the father of the child will be there but just knowing the midwives will be there to support me and have my back is just the best feeling. ❤️
