Anyone else miss that magical feeling of being pregnant & giving birth?

I wish I could go back to those days of having midwife appointments & scans & even giving birth, I loved it all. Baby is now a month old & those feelings have worn off & im just tired & stressed & emotional all the time. Which is weird because when I was pregnant, these were the days I was dreaming of. But now I’m dreaming of those days again. The buildup & excitement.

OMG, this! I had the best pregnancy and lovely birth that I missed it soooo much and still do now! I cried after I gave birth because I really wanted to do it again and felt like I didn’t take it all in as much as I could have done! Almost like I rushed it?! I can’t wait for baby no2 because of this but then it’ll be super sad because we probably won’t have anymore! It was the best ever and feel so lucky to have had such an amazing birth. Xx

The birth definitely f*cking not, it was the worst experience of my life but as much as I didn’t enjoy the last few months of pregnancy I actually do miss being pregnant… in the moment I didn’t think I would 😂

Antibiotics?

Hi, im 11 weeks pregnant and take immunosuppressives for a pre existing condition.
I've gotten a cheat infection this week and my GP has put me on penicillin antibiotics...is there any risks I should be looking out for?

How's your nursery progress going?

I told myself I wanted to wait to start it because I finished way too early with my son and had nothing to do in my late second and third trimester. So, I started around 20 weeks and planned to have it most of the way finished by my baby shower. Baby shower is next weekend, the nursery is not nearly finished, and I went it there with every intention to get shit done yesterday and ended up just sitting in the rocking chair for an hour lol. Third trimester fatigue is real.

Blood pressure

Anyone in here dealt with high BP/pre E? Would love to hear your experience. For the last few weeks I’ve been getting these weird episodes where I’m doing something and my head will start pounding, face gets hot, and chest feels weird and tight and then it’ll go away after I sit for a few min. I got a home BP cuff and started checking during these episodes and sure enough my BP has been spiking. It’s usually only my diastolic that spikes and goes anywhere from 89-108, and my systolic always stays either low or slightly elevated but never above 140. I thought maybe my home cuff was off so I went to Walmart and checked on Tuesday and got a reading of 137/91, so I went to OB triage that night just to be send home an hour later after fine readings after I was there resting. I’m confused why only my diastolic seems to be spiking and why only when I try and do things, and yet my BP is totally normal when at rest. Has anyone dealt with this before?

Labour/birth

Did anyone just have a feeling that they were going to go into spontaneous labour and then did that same day? If that makes sense 😂

I keep having a feeling that today is the day but I'm trying to not get hopes up as it's probably nothing 😂
