Pregnancy pillows

What pregnancy pillows is everyone using? I hated the big u shaped pillows when I was pregnant with my first. I’m now 24 weeks with my second and I can’t sleep at all due to how uncomfortable I am so I think it’s time to buy a pillow 😅does anyone have any good recommendations??

I originally got the huge one momcosy one but I found it too big and not very supportive. I then bought the baby bub bundle with the long support pillow for inbetween your legs and I honestly cannot recommend it enough! It’s great it helps me to stop rolling on my back and supports bump either side I am laying! I absolutely love it. Took a little while to come with shipping because it comes from America but well worth the wait!

The Baby bub maternity pillow set with the leg bit. I love how flexible it is!

I bought the Kally Sleep U shaped pillow and, yes it is enormous, but it has made the world of difference for my hip pain when side sleeping. Just the right firmness for me. I sleep with my head on a normal pillow and the U at the foot of the bed

I got the Bella Moon 3 in 1 and it’s changed the way I sleep completely. So comfortable in different positions, and even my husband and pets try to use it every opportunity they can 🤣

I got the tutti bambini pregnancy pillow. It’s like a giant long beanbag you can tighten the ends or loosen to make the pillow harder or more loose. Comfiest thing ever 😅 and it comes in cute patterns 💕

Baby bub!

I got an amazon version of the baby bub and it's so much better for this pregnancy. I had no idea how much supporting the bump would help! My first pregnancy I had one of those huge U shaped ones and it did nothing for me.

I have a U pillow and sleep with U at the bottom of the bed now which definitely changed the game. Then I sleep on a nice cushy hotel-grade pillow.

Down 30 lbs, but feeling discouraged...

I have lost 32.4 lbs since really trying to focus on my health. I'm proud of this change, but I've recently received some discouraging words from my mother. I mentioned the weight loss to my mom and her response was, "I didn't even notice. You'd think 30 lbs would be enough to start to make a dent." She also talked about how I've lost weight before and I just let myself go again and get fat again. (I did lose 100 lbs about 5 years ago, and unfortunately I did gain some of it back when having my son and with 4 other pregnancies all ending in miscarriages.) My mom has always been my biggest critic, so I'm trying to not let it get to me, but I hear those words in my head constantly and I am starting to feel discouraged. I logically know there is a difference. I have gone down 2 pant sizes. My husband tells me he has seen a huge difference not only looking at me, but also in my energy level. My doctor is happy with my progress and for the first time in years, my blood pressure is normal, which he credits to the weight loss and life style changes. I can even see a difference when looking in the mirror, but I now can't look into the mirror without hearing her words. I guess I just need some support and encouragement and want to know how you all don't let the harsh words and negativity of others get to you. Any advice? I just don't want to let her win and give up on myself like I have in the past...

28 week bloods

I had my bloods taken at 28 week appt and midwife said someone would ring me with the results 24/48 hours later. It’s been like a week now and I have heard nothing. I don’t have another midwife appt until 34 weeks.
At the appt I had sugar in my urine and they said the blood test would provide some insight into it.
Did anyone else get a phone call after their bloods or should I assume no news is good news?
I don’t have a contact number for them, I was only ever given the number for triage!

Birth Anxiety

Good morning all! I am 26 weeks and currently have been having a lot more anxiety about birth! I’m not sure if I should remove social media from my phone as it’s not really helping. I am getting to the point where I’m absolutely stressing over vaginal or c section. If anyone is going through this would love the support or any recommendations.

Happy Friday everyone 🌻💙
