4th of July, how did it go??

This is my first baby and outside it was so hot so we stayed inside most of the day while our friends and family were playing games, grilling, drinking, hanging by the pool. I felt so lonely and craved my child free life back so much 😭
After 3 hours once the UV was low enough we tried to go out and have the baby try the pool too and he did great but by then I was so exhausted that we maybe stayed out for 30 minutes and then went home.
Every time there’s a day like this I can’t stop being so sad craving my life before kids and I know I’ll never have those care free fun days back

We had tons of fun but the walk back to the car was so hard. We almost had a heatstroke and were so tired. A kind lady stopped her car and gave us cold water bottles so that helped a lot. We watched the parade in the morning then went back out for fireworks at night!

In a yr or so you’ll be back to more outdoor fun chasing a toddler around with them having bubbles and chalk it’ll be different for sure but I promise holidays will become more fun again as they get a bit older .

Pregnancy

I just found out I’m pregnant, my son is 10 months old and they will have a 19 month age gap depending on when baby #2 is born , and I’m really freaking out lol. Was hoping for some positive stories or anything that it’s not as bad as I think it’s gonna be in my head, I’m just scared and I always imagined a 22+ month age gap and didn’t expect to get pregnant at all, I was on birth control lol. So I’m just a little nervous! Thank you in advance !

Baby number 2

Any of you lovely May 2024 mamma’s expecting baby number 2 (or 3, 4 etc) and how are you doing?

I have an extremely high energy boy and I didn’t know strength until now, experiencing a difficult first trimester with a toddler 😆

Pregnancy Pillow (UK based)

Hi, so I am 13+5 and I think over the next couple of weeks I need to get a pregnancy pillow. I have a lot of joint pain due to being hypermobile and haven't slept well at all since week 2 (major tiredness, but unable to fall asleep!). Just looking for some recommendations of full length body support pillows for bed (and sofa) and where people got them?

Thank you 😊

polyhydramnios

Looking for some reassurance from other moms. 🤍

I’m 37 weeks pregnant and was recently told I have high amniotic fluid (polyhydramnios). I’m being monitored closely, but I’d love to hear from anyone who went through something similar.

Did you go on to have a healthy pregnancy and a normal vaginal delivery without any major complications? Did your fluid levels stay high or improve? Any positive stories or advice would really mean a lot right now. 💙
