same, got a new mattress too but my hips end up hurting every night still and if not, it’s my back from the awkward positions I get it to be ‘comfortable’
can’t wait to be able to sleep comfortably again

I know what you mean it’s hard isn’t it I think being more propped up and then pillow between legs and angle body into bed helps

I have the momcozy wedge pillow, it’s made sleeping better this time round even though sleep still isn’t the best x

By the time I actually get comfy it’s time for me to struggle to try and get up and go for ANOTHER pee 😬🥲 but yeah it sucks!

These August Babies Are Coming Early !!

38+4 ! It’s a surreal feeling! I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that she’s finally here after 9 LONG months. I need 24hours to just stare at her & soak it all in 💗

C section recovery

Hi everyone. I've been booked in for a C-section. It wasn't really what I wanted, but all the other choices have been taken away.
I'm worried most about the recovery.
Does anyone have any good recovery tips or recommendations?

Percentile?

I had my 28 week appointment and got my bump measured and was told baby is measuring on the 97th percentile?
I had a growth scan at 26 weeks which baby was measuring on the 25th percentile. What is going on🥲

Leaving baby with grandma

Wondering when everyone first left baby overnight with grandparents/trusted people? My baby will be just shy of 5 months when my husband and I’s anniversary is, so we were hoping to leave her for a night. She loves her grandma so I’m not too worried, but I just want any advice if poss, thanks!

Emergency c-section flashbacks

Does anyone else have moments with their emergency c-section that provides random stresses?

I was under GA for the section so I struggle with the fact that I wasn’t awake for my baby’s birth.

He was just sick in his bed, typically just before the baby monitor died 🙄, so I didn’t see it until just after it happened. It’s really bothered me that I wasn’t there for him when he was sick and I just feel a bit stressed/out of funk now.

My husband is great with my feelings etc but just wondered if there was anyone else with the same feelings as it would be great to have fellow people to talk to who get my feelings.

What Is Your Experience ofaternity services triage so far?

I have personally had a horrendous journey so far from routine scan issues to the end up resulting in an emergency section. What is your experience so far taking into account how you were feeling and whether you'd felt seen, heard and listened to?
