When is everyone telling family/friends?

I am 5 weeks but have no idea whether to wait or tell a few close people a bit sooner…

I’ve told parents and my close friends, pregnancy is tough, we shouldn’t have to feel like we have to go through it alone in the first few months❤️

I've told a few randomers just to get used to the idea, like people in shops and a neighbour at the allotment! I've told 1 person at work as I've had to call in sick and they're being very discreet until I'm comfortable telling others. I plan on telling family in the next few weeks because I've been so stressed about this and really want the support of my mum and sisters! My partner wants to wait a little bit longer to tell his family which is fine with me

I have told 2 friends at the moment and will tell my mum and sister when I see them next.

I understand the caution but as someone who went through a loss previously, I wish I had told more close people so I had the support there.

Pregnancy is tough at the best of times and to have a village is so important x

Weaning Anxiety

Hello everyone

I am going to start weaning my baby soon but I feel so anxious! I am super fearful of choking and allergies. I feel that every time she eats solids, I will be holding my breath with worry.

Has anyone else felt like this? What has helped overcome your anxiety?

40 weeks +6!

Who is still waiting for their July baby to arrive? I have an induction booked for Monday (which I was really hoping to avoid as I've heard horror stories. If anyone has positive ones, please let me know!🤞) I know there is still time, have done all the classic midwives recommendations/old wife tales etc and nothing has worked! 😂 Hoping baby boy arrives soon!🩵 Just wondering if anyone is in the same boat? How you feeling? X
