My midwife told me to get one to help with pain when I was in the first trimester ☺️ she said it’s a good idea to use it all through the pregnancy to help with pelvic floor ect!

I used one the moment I had back pain / discomfort or when I was sat on the sofa too long and needed a change from around 16 weeks if I remember correctly - it massively helped in later pregnancy!

Am I seeing things..

Bottom test is from Wednesday lunch time and Top is from second morning urine today (Friday)

Is there a faint line on the top test or am I seeing things??

How is everyone going about telling family members about when they want visitors, and not kissing baby. I didn’t fuss to much with my first born as she was born during Covid and no one could come round and obviously there frequent testing when sick, but now being due in a few weeks and it coming into cold and flu season, I just don’t feel comfortable with it, especially because all family members are around kids and we all know how kids catch everything 😂

Blood Type

Does anyone else have a negative blood type?

I’m O Negative (my partner is O but we don’t know positive or negative). They will test my blood again at the dating scan and predict the baby’s blood type. Has anyone had or been told they will have to have anti D injections for different blood types?
