I have done with the 2 scans so far and they haven't checked the baby heartbeat so far either at the scan appointment or at the midwife appointment. When do they actually check?

Me neither! I only heard it at the private scan

First dating ultrasound they showed us the heartbeat, then on 15 week app with midwife I could hear it. They probably checked at the scan but didn't mention it's there x

They definitely check the heartbeat at the scans but it's more like looking at the heart valves open and close, not actually hearing anything. You'll be able to properly hear it later during your midwife appointments
Please tell me I’m not the only one!! I have not thrown up at all up until now. I’m almost 28 weeks and out of no where, a smell set me off that bad I threw up?! Not even the worst thing I’ve smelt but it was awful. Just happened out of no where

I have a 2 year old son,tonight he was laying in bed for the past hour watching tv- I looked over and he had blood all over his face. He hasnt had random nosebleeds before other than when he hit his nose. Is this something I should be worried about? It stopped before I even noticed it. He isnt wanting me to wipe his nose or look up there but its coming out of one nostril only. Ive never had a nosebleed before is that common?

First off he's here! 3:30pm weighing 9lbs 🩵 it was a rough C-section, needed the spinal done twice, vomited, they needed to repair old scar damage, make a new incision and cut through muscle and lastly needed a vacuum to get little one out. If you had the same issue with spinal, did it cause any complications down the line?

Hey ladies, I’m not 2 weeks post birth and just looking for reassurance. My bleeding was heavy as normal for the first few days and then died down quite quickly. I’ve now noticed that I can go a day without bleeding and then the next day bleed and lose some small clots, has anyone had anything similar? TIA x
