First scan

Hi, this is my second pregnancy. I’ve been way more sick this one. I have my first scan tomorrow at 10 weeks. I’m a bit nervous. Hopefully everything goes well 🤞 did you also feel nervous before your first scan?

Hi, yeah I'm super nervous right now. Pregnant with second baby and first scan is in less than 2 hours and I'm shaking I'm so nervous. Have had bad morning sickness and have not been able to sleep properly for the last 5 days thinking about the scan today

Always, it's impossible to know how things are going until looking at the scan

I was TERRIFIED. The pregnancy didn't feel real until I saw that tiny heart beating. That gave me permission to get excited. Good luck with yours!

Just for laughs🤣🤣

Why do people name their children after Times and Seasons they weren’t even born in? I met a ‘Summer’ today that was born in the Winter(December). A while back, I met an Autumn that wasn’t even born in that season. My cousin’s name is Augusta and she was born in May. Don’t get me started on ‘April’s’🤣Is it just because they like the name? Do you or do you know someone that did this? Please share for laughs. What was the name and their story behind it🤣❤️

After I gave birth I have things bulging out of my vagina ! My doctor said it’s normal most women that have birth vaginas look like that but she recommended I do some kegel exercises and not worry about it , but I can’t help it

Did u have the same experience?

4lb baby

I’m due to have a planned c-section at 38+1 due to intrauterine growth restriction (I’ve had many complications with my placenta but luckily he’s managed to hold on in there until 38 weeks!) however my placenta is worsening and he’s dropped to the 2nd centile and his weight is currently only 3.9lb (I know their measurements can be off).

I’m wanting to know if anyone has had a teeny tiny but full term baby and whether they needed extra support in the hospital? My understanding is he may need help with his feeding & body temp - I’m hoping not breathing. I’ve been warned he may need an NG tube. I’m very open to all of this support but would just like to hear if other people have been in this position and if so, what did it look like for you & how long were you in the hospital for? 👶🏼

Not much movement

I’m 27 weeks tomorrow and I’ve not felt much movement since Sunday. I have an anterior placenta so I just keep thinking he’s tucked himself back up behind my placenta again and I’ve just been incredibly lucky the last two weeks to have felt him kicking me and tapping me back after I prod him and playing little games.
The only way I can explain the movements is like muscle spasms a few times a day and then l have idea how to explain the pressure or sensation just above my pubic bone.
Do you think I should go to the hospital?

Hospital bag…

I’m 32 weeks today and starting to get my head around packing a hospital bag ready again… where has the time gone!
My son is 20 months, so I should remember everything I packed the last time, but my mind is pretty much blank… I’m guessing baby brain!
Any ideas or top packs? I know the one thing I was thankful for was my hand held fan. (Hoping if things go to plan, it will be a planned C section again due to my health conditions.)
