Hi all, I just wanted to sense check I am getting the most out of my midwife appointment. Currently 31 weeks with my first baby, so it could be my own misconceptions about what actually happens at these appointments. But I feel overall very clueless, my appointments feel the same urine/blood test, hear thr heartbeat, do you feel safe at home, see you next time.
I thought we would have more discussions about things I should be knowing like vitamins, top tips, feeding/birthing plans, dos and donts etc. Everything I have learnt is from Google (not always the most trusted source). Happy to hear your experiences or if I have just built in image up in my head which isn't realistic!

I find myself apologising constantly for not being able to work with this morning sickness and nausea.
Anyone else?

It’s my birthday today ! 🥺🎂 and honestly, I’m feeling a little sad. I don’t really have anybody to hang out with, and I don’t have the money to go do anything, so it just feels like another regular day. I’m grateful to be here, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little disappointed. Just venting today.

Has anyone else experienced mild period like cramps & discomfort in / around 16 weeks in the centre of the stomach? I’ve had cramp like feelings since the early hours of this morning!
