- Cravings have been mostly savoury but some sweet
- No acne
- movement started about 16 weeks so quite early, very active baby just like their dad lol

Bump dropping

Hi! Im 33+5 weeks pregnant with my first baby. My bump seems to have dropped today, I had my antenatal appointment yesterday and baby wasnt engaged.
Im just wondering when everyone's dropped and if this is too early? Should I be contacting the midwives? Im not in pain other than lightening crotch evey now and again, and baby moving like normal.

Thank you xx

Natural birth or C-section?

Hi, I am due my first baby in October and my partner and family are advising me to have a C-section. As they say it’s less painful etc. But I would prefer a natural birth and wouldn’t want to go through recovery after the C-section. I had an ovarian cyst removed at 14 weeks, along with my ovary and fallopian tube. It took me weeks to recover from this and worry the recovery for C-section would be the same. Does anyone have any advice please? Would you have a C-section or opt for natural birth?

Where are your 4mo at?!

What are your 4 month olds doing developmentally & how are their motor skills?? My little man turned 4mo on the 7th & he has really good head control when being held & lifts his trunk pretty good during tummy time. He isn’t quite sitting yet but he can stay stable for a few secs-mins until he topples over or starts to slouch. He starting to kick during tummy time & when provided he pushes off of my hand or my leg or really anything lol. I’ve seen so many 4mo olds start to kind of scoot (almost crawl) etc. I wanna know where yall are at! 😊

Early pregnancy bleeding

Hey mamas, has anyone gone through this? I’m roughly 7weeks pregnant and I had an emergency scan due to bleeding for around two weeks now and was told to comeback for another scan to see if there’s a heart beat as it was too small and that there is bleeding on my cervix, I’ve had spotting in my first pregnancy but not like this. Does this sound like a miscarriage or has anyone had this and the baby was fine?
