Pressure at 15 weeks
Hi just checking if anyone else has similar to me getting a bit worried as I’ve had pressure feeling for some time now probably since before my 12 week scan, this is my 3rd pregnancy so I get things are more stretched out but never had this feeling with my 2nd pregnancy, I can’t sit on the toilet without feeling like my baby’s head is right there and if a squeeze the feeling of the head coming out (I know it won’t) be the pressure and the feeling of the head being really low is the only why I can describe it especially when I’ve been laying down in bed and get up in the morning to go to toilet the pressure is unbearable. And I’m only 15 weeks - 16 on Saturday. I can only imagine when baby is more heavier and bigger for what the pressure will feel like then. I’ve experienced pressure in my last pregnancies but towards the end when baby is full term and engaged. Never this early on anyone else feeling similar or is this something more serious

Could it be due to a weakened pelvic floor? I'm trying to strengthen mine, this is my 4th baby and midwife said important to do pelvic floor exercises. It would be worth asking to be assessed just to ensure its not a prolapse problem. They could maybe make a pelvic health physio referral.
Or, it could be something like a UTI as they can cause pressure like symptoms. Worth getting seen I think.

Happy due date
Today would have been my due date but I’ve enjoyed an extra 4 days of this little man after an induction due to pre eclampsia bloods we’re on the rise and episodes of reduced movements. Almost 11 hours from start to finish of a painful back to back labour and a VBAC which I prayed for I wouldn’t have it any other way. And those scared becoming a mum of 3, being a mum of 3 under 4 is scary but the love they have for him is amazing!

37 weeks and SO over it
I have loved being pregnant and having my little boy in my belly but the last few weeks have been so rough with pelvic pain, constant heart burn, broken sleep and honestly a little bit of boredom as I’ve already cleaned everything in my house that I am so ready for him to make his appearance.
Anyone else feeling this way? I know I’ll miss it once it’s over but I don’t know how much longer I can take 😂

Failed my 1 hour glucose test!! 198 was the number higher than what I got at my first pregnancy.
Scared to go for another 3 hour test, is there a chance for me to pass with that elevated screening number??

Pregnant with twins!
I’m 8 weeks pregnant with twins, I haven’t had any morning sickness and my tiredness has started easing off. However, My anxiety and emotions are all over the place, I’m crying nearly everyday and just feel low and grumpy! Right now I don’t have much excitement but I am happy to be pregnant…some days I’m just wonder if I’m making the right choice - any advice?
