Badger notes - 12 week screening

I’m due to give birth at the Queen Elizabeth in Glasgow. Had my 12 week screening bloods now over 3 weeks ago and still nothing on the app and not had a letter or anything. Didn’t wait this long with my first, anyone else has this? X

Have you phoned them?

no, I’m not sure who I would phone x

I don’t have a direct number for my midwife, didn’t have one with my first either

Is this something you’ve been given in the ggc health board? X

I got my results at my 16week midwife appointment I’m giving birth at the princess royal tho x

I was told that no phone call from the royal is good. The hospital will only phone if it’s bad news. The midwife will tell you verbally at next appointment. No news is good news 💕x

You should definitely have a number at the very least for the community midwives in general if not your own. Im in Inverness but they make sure we have the number to phone the office and we also have our midwives number too.
As others have said no news is good news but I'd still give them a ring anyway and check.

Mines never got updated onto badger with any urgency. They usually say no news is good news! In my experience they were very quick to phone when issues came back with my bloods x

When there was something wrong with my 12 week bloods I got a phone call. In all likelihood no news is good news, although I know the wait feels like it takes forever.

Anyone else feel like as soon as their baby turned 8m old they are acting like a completely different baby? She's become noticeably more difficult as far as behavior.

Please tell me what your experience is with your 8m old.

Help!!!!

Someone please help me with some advice because I’m losing my absolute mind 😭
Baby is 5 months old, she has changed a lot in personality over the last month, more needy, sleep changes etc but have put it down to the 4 month regression and teething.
However, the problem that makes me want to literally cry is the car seat! She is totally inconsolable now every time she’s in the car. Why? And what can I do to help it?!

Postpartum hair loss

Let’s see it ladies.
You’ve got to laugh or you’ll cry, let’s be honest 🤣

Edit: this is what I caught in the shower and does not include anything that went down the plug, anything that stayed on my comb, anything still attached to my body when I got out or anything that was still in the bath when I was done ✌️.

PP things I hate

Everything is stress induced anymore
My daughter has this ongoing diarrhea for 2 weeks now and I’ve gotten no sleep from it, I now have a canker sore from it, my acid reflux has more flare ups than ever. I don’t like having sex anymore (I love my partner and I still find him very attractive). Im way too overly touched (by the baby, by the dog and by him). Im 10m pp and I haven’t been able to wear a dang tampon! I don’t do pads because they are just not for me so I wear a diaper.
Please tell me if you relate to any of this at all? Or if I’m just crazy
