I’ve tried every thing from eating more potassium and drinking more milk but I still wake up with the worst cramps any suggestions because I’m about ready to cry at this point

200mg magnesium glycinate worked for me!

Agree with magnesium! You could also try magnesium lotion too

Yes - magnesium and stretch your toes towards your shins throughout the day.

I take magnesium baths works lovely!!

I’ve also been told to take the magnesium glycinate about two hours apart from milk since the milk can impact absorption
12dpo and picture was taken within 3 mins! I can see a very faint line but trying not to get my hopes yet 🙈 anyone else's postives look like this at this stage??

Hi all, would you give the same name of the baby of a friend of yours who is not very close to you but you keep talking from time to time?
We are both from Spain and our husbands are Greek. She had a baby few months ago and gave her one of our favorite name we are thinking to give to our baby (a Greek name). In the last month we are starting to love more and more that name and I am wondering if this will be offensive to her if we pick the same? my older kid really loves that name too and wants us to call our baby like that. To add on the awkwardness our first born has the same name but our is the Spanish version and hers is the Greek version!! in this case we didn’t know it and it was pure chance 👀

I had an internal scan on Wednesday , my LMP was 24th July 2026 so from that date I would’ve been about 6 weeks and 4 days on Wednesday. I’m having regular scans due to miscarriage before and I was having pain 2 weeks ago, but I had my scan and they can only see a gestational sac there’s still no yolk sac and fetal pole is this normal. They are saying I’m probably still so early to see it but I’ve got really bad anxiety so I’m worried about it all, my hcg is going up and my tests are getting darker but I’m still so worried. I started getting spotting Wednesday as well and nothing goes onto my pad it’s only when I wipe but it’s more red now. Yesterday my test also changed to 3+ after it being on 2-3 for 2 weeks but I done another test this morning when I woke up because of the pain and bleeding and it’s gone back down to 2-3 im really worried

Today i found out if you have the flu or a cold you feel really under the weather and just want to lie down and rest - our babies do the same thing, their movements may be reduced because they are reserving energy, didn’t know this before but it puts my mind at ease as i had the worst flu over the past week at 37 weeks and baby girl was quite quiet ❤️🥰
