I’m drowning and spiraling! I need help bad… 3bd/2b apartment and I just can’t keep up. I’m tired all the time. Postpartum depression. I got pregnant while in my first postpartum and never completed it. I have a 8 month old and 2 year old … I just want to sleep, so that’s what I do… and wake up everyday to a mess of an house 😣

Membrane sweep

Currently 39 weeks, went in for a membrane sweep and feeling super discouraged as she wasn’t able to do it as I was 0cm dilated so she’s booked me in for this coming Thursday. Has this happened to anyone else? I’m on my second baby so not too sure as to why I’m not dilated at all although I’ve been getting braxton hicks/false labour contractions for almost a month, cervix is soft and baby is in position.

Am I being dramatic?

I HAD to drink tap water today. I was at my friends and she was out of water. I was sooo thirsty. I ended up getting ice in a cup and drinking from the sink. I cannot stop thinking about it now. 😂

Telling work you are pregnant

Hi everyone,
Sorry if this has been posted before but I couldn't find any similar posts when I searched.

I am wondering when you all told your employers that you were pregnant. I am currently only 6w but the morning sickness has hit me like an absolute tonne of bricks, and I simply cannot face going into the office. Luckily I can WFH, but that should only be 2 days a week.

I didn't want to tell them until the 12th week, but I obviously can't keep ringing in saying 'i am WFH today because I am not well', as they think I am messing about.

What did you do?

Thanks

Sleep

Im on night 4. With no sleep. Im due in the first week of August. The heat is not helping. Restless leg, which i take magnesium for. And uncomfortable. Im not sleeping till like 2 or 3 in the morning when my body had enough.
Im so tired. I lay in bed for like half an hour, and then im up and down. And in the end, I give up. Any advice?
