Am I being sensitive?
My partners mum was talking to my partner last night and she said to him ‘let’s call our baby [insert name]’. She keeps telling me off for tapping my belly too (I like to pat it like a bongo cus I feel like I’m playing him a little rhythm).
It’s getting too much and it’s making me anxious because this is my baby and my body but maybe I’m just being overly sensitive? Advice welcome 😭
For more context this is my 4th baby but my other three were from my ex husband, so this baby is my partners first.

No your definitely not being overly sensitive your baby , your body, your choice ❤️
Definitely not being sensitive. MIL needs to butt out... referring to yours and your partners baby as "our baby" is a no, and seemingly not giving you a thought or inclusion on name ideas is off. You aren't just a vessel... I'd tell your partner it's getting to you.

Low placenta success stories?
I know it’s early I’m only 17 weeks but I had my gender scan recently and was told I’ve got a low lying placenta right now. I had a c section with my first and I’m absolutely shitting myself that it’s going to stay there and turn into placental accreta or something. I cannot stop panicking and it’s genuinely ruining pregnancy for me, which I don’t like at the best of time haha.
I know it can move but I don’t have my 20 week scan until the end of the month and I’ve already got horrendous health anxiety as it is and I’m just so scared I’m going to need really close monitoring and not be able to do loads of stuff for fear of causing a bleed, I’m worried I’m going to need a transfusion and just thinking the absolute worst about everything.

First trimester
Hi all, just looking for some reassurance as I’m driving myself crazy. I’m currently 5w 4days and barely having any symptoms and all I keep seeing on Tiktok is other people really struggling with the first trimester. Am I just being naive and will it ramp up in the coming weeks? Anyone else not really having many symptoms at around 5 weeks?
I can’t remember what I was like with my first around this time, I feel so much more anxious this time round 🤦🏼♀️

Emotional about my baby turning one
Is anyone else so emotional about the babies gonna be 1 cos I’m an emotional mess my baby boy is 1 on the 17th and he wil be my last baby and I just want to keep him a baby as long as I can but this year has just went by too fast.
