People talk about an energy boost and feeling more yourself in the 2nd trimester. I’m 14w3days today and still feel as tired, low and not myself as I did in the first trimester!! Did other people find this and when did you start feeling better?? xxx

Hopefully not the same for you but I felt pretty terrible until I was about 28 weeks 🤣 I’ve had the most energy third trimester! But I think most people feel better by 16 weeks ish? Xx

20 weeks when my sickness subsided. At 32 weeks I can feel my energy starting to slip again but it's not as bad yet

I was very lucky and for most of my first trimester I didn’t even feel pregnant. Second trimester I’m more tired, my ankles and feet are swollen and heels are really sore 🫠 I feel lied to! 🤣 just at the start of the 3rd trimester now and the wild dreams have been back for a few weeks too

I’m almost 21 weeks and my nausea has mostly gone, fatigue is still hitting me hard. Still waiting on the second trimester energy and pregnancy glow everyone talks about 🥲🥹 hope you’re not waiting quite so long as me.

I’m 31 weeks and I think I’ve made my mind up about a vbac.
I think I’ll book in an elective for 41 weeks (as late as they’ll let me) and see if labour naturally happens before then.
I’m hoping this is the right decision but it’s difficult to differentiate fear over intuition.
Has anyone got any advice on having a vbac? How to physically prepare beforehand and in the hospital?
Just for context, there will be just under 16 months between my first and this baby

I’m 34 + 2 and I noticed when I was just in the shower that I’m starting to leak colostrum. Is it too soon to start collecting?

I love it, it’s my childs grandfathers middle name, but the rest of his dads family is saying no it’s too girly. :(

So I’ve got a c section booked for Thursday 27th but if you go in for reduced movements before hands … do they bring your c section forward? Has anyone been in this situation? I’m 38 weeks tomorrow ( Sunday ) xx
