Panicking a little bit now 😂😂 throughout my whole pregnancy so far little man has been measuring on the smaller side, 2 weeks ago at a growth scan he was on the 40th centile. I went for a scan today due to bump measuring bigger and he’s now jumped up to the 83rd centile 💀 estimating at 8lb 1oz … I’m 37+3 weeks… they’ve made me do blood tests today to check for GD (I had one at 20 weeks and passed, had GD in previous pregnancy too) so I’m worried about that now and potentially having to be induced.

I’m just so torn on what to do. The midwife said today how if bloods come back normal it’s up to me what I want to do, whether that be induction or spontaneous labour… I originally wanted spontaneous but now I’m worrying that he’s going to get huge in the remaining weeks if I end up carrying past 40 weeks.

This is my second baby, bump is ridiculously low… pressure down there is actually insane it feels like I could push him out😂 lightning crotch is making it really hard to walk as I constantly have it and I’ve had on and off contractions since the weekend before last… I’d like to think he’d come earlier but knowing my luck he won’t. Getting a bit nervous now about his size 😬😬

Thyroid

Has anyone developed hyperthyroidism after pregnancy?
Baby is almost 3 months old and I've had a few symptoms so had a blood test. It's come back that my levels are 68 when they should be between 9-22 😵‍💫
I've got an appointment tomorrow to discuss my results which the Dr booked for me.
What happens after this? I want to know now so I can stop panicking...

Toddler

Anyone else with a toddler struggling? Not even heavily pregnant yet! Sometimes I'm not sure I can cope with 2 and going through everything all again but it's too late now!

I got no warning!

Nobody warned me about the threenager stage. 😭😂

I thought the terrible twos were the challenge… BABY, THREE CAME IN WITH A WHOLE PERSONALITY, ATTITUDE, NEGOTIATION SKILLS AND ZERO REGARD FOR MY AUTHORITY. 😭😂

I love my baby girl more than anything… but whew. If you’re a first-time mom with a toddler, just know you are NOT alone. 😂😭
