I’ve slept on my back since the beginning (now 38+ 4), but I’ve always inclined my upper body on 2-3 pillows. Otherwise, you can put one pillow on your back or under one hip which will keep you from going to your back or at least keep you tilted which is enough

How long does your “adult time” usually last?!

My husband is convinced that going for an hour plus every time is normal and that I should be thrilled. I prefer a good 15 to 20 max start to finish. I rarely am in the mood cause I know i’m about to lose a full hour to hour and a half of personal time especially since we have two small children so my personal time is precious 😩. Do you guys have hour long sessions all the time or is this abnormal and i’m actually not crazy for not enjoying it?! It’s also not every now and again it’s EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Are there such things as an “inappropriate” name for a baby?

Examples - names of cities, word spelled backwards, names of tv characters, etc.

Or is there no such thing as a wrong/ inappropriate name?

Would you be upset: no midwives showed up for their appointments and no one was told

I was supposed to have my 34 week appointment today where my anemia was going to be checked and she was going to follow up on my VBAC consultation that I been trying to get. I got to the GP and another expectant Mum advised me that no midwives have shown up and she had been waiting since 9:30 (it was 10:15) and the GP didn't know what was going on. So, we both rang maternity and it turns out that the midwife clinic was cancelled today (no illnesses or anything)... However, no one was told. I am a bit upset because I have concerns at the moment and have been waiting a few weeks to get a VBAC appointment. Just wondering if anyone else would be a bit upset at this, after travelling there especially if you are in a lot of pain? They said they can only apologize (which is true not their fault) and try to rebook as soon as they can.

Growth scans?

First time pregnancy - low risk. Have had scans at 12 and 20 weeks but see everyone talking about having growth scans booked in. Not been mentioned to me at all so just wondering if everyone has these or if it’s just if you’re higher risk? Seems mad i could go from 20 weeks to giving birth with no other scans!
