Sleeping Arrangements

I'm 25weeks pregnant with twins, I've barrelled at the front and struggling to sleep.

I was a front sleeper, but there's no chance of front sleeping anymore. Understandably I'm not meant to sleep on my back, so that's resulted to side sleeping...
I've got 2x different types of maternity pillows and neither are helping...ones like a wedge pillow and ones a pillow thats meant to go between the legs...
However, my hips are so sore when I get up in the morning and feel like a geriatric..

Has anyone tried anything like this inflatable pillow before? Or have any suggestions?

NHS app

I downloaded NHS app to see if I can see my test results on there and it only gives me the option for GP test results not hospital ones.. as my badger app is still not getting updated I’m going to make a complaint to pals I think it’s a joke I had my diabetes test Monday and still have no results 🤦🏻‍♀️

I'm 37+3 today and a first time mom...everyone keeps asking if I'm excited to meet baby

I'm not excited, I'm absolutely shit scared. What if we've made the wrong decision and what if I hate being a mother? I'm not sure I feel any excitement, I'm just so scared for this next chapter

Glucose test

Did anyone fail the one hour test but pass the three hour?? I failed mine and so scared I'll fail the 3 hour. I try so hard to limit my sugar intake, even my husband thought I was being strict. But I failed a 130 with a 158. 😭😭

Sneak peak gender test

Do any of you mamas have any experience with the sneak peak gender test? I'm roughly around 8-9 weeks with my 2nd and am considering having it done at my OB appointment tomorrow if it is offered. I only have experience with the NIPT, which was accurate for my son so this will be my 1st time having it done. Was it accurate for you mamas & how long did the results take to come back? 🤍

Bump to head..

I was lying down breastfeeding, trying to get my arm in a comfortable position when the phone fell out of my hand and fell into the back of my baby’s head. She startled and then did the most awful cry 😩 I managed to comfort her after a few minutes and then she carried on feeding and is now asleep but my anxiety has me spiralling. She’s 13 weeks old, I can’t tell if there is a bump (I don’t think there is) and it didn’t fall from a height or with any great force. It would have scared and hurt her a bit…I just feel really bad. She’s going to be okay, isn’t she?
