Well I'm not too great due in 5 weeks 1st baby and I'm 17. Me and my partner got told due to our living circumstances we would be placed in our own place together before our baby was here as it was a joint assessment for both of us and they've completely lied about it I've upset my mum cuz I'm not going back home to live with her cuz my stepdad is abusive and I don't want him around my baby so I'm living with my bfs family everyone is trying to push me into a mother and baby unit and uts honestly too much to handle
I'm better than I have been all along as I have HG and even with the tablets only stopped vomiting in week 25!
He got into an awkward position on Saturday and was kicking under my ribs. Thankfully he moved and has been much more comfortable since! It feels so far but yet so soon! Just can't wait to meet him 💙
How are you?
Due Nov 3rd with my first child. Not long... the last two months, I've been struggling with moderate back and pelvic girdle pain. Some days are better than others, but mobility wise, I haven't been coping well with being so restricted as I'm typically a very active person....Crutches are my best friend, but at this point it looks as though I'm not going to have a birthing pool for her arrival as for medical reasons. This was disheartening for me to hear from the midwives.. but it is what it is... all that matters is that baby and I are safe. I am beyond excited for her to be here, and I'm literally counting down the days 🥰 that's what helps on the days when I'm feeling a little blue.
Due on Nov 25th and so excited to meet my baby boy 💙, honestly my pregnancy has been pretty good throughout 🙏🏼.

Going from 1 to 2
I have a little girl and I’m currently 5/6weeks pregnant. I’ve had two chemicals so this pregnancy so far has had me on edge. Although we did want another, I’m now scared.
My girl will be 3/4ish weeks off turning 2 when the next one is due.
I’m now starting to think about how it’ll realistically work… having to get out with a toddler and a baby. How am I going to get them both up and ready, meals, nappy changes solo trips etc. like I was shopping earlier and thought ‘how could I do this with 2?!’ When my toddler was climbing out the trolley and not letting me get her in the car seat etc.
panicking..

Eustachian tube dysfunction/muffled heading
Hi, anyone else had experience of blocked ears during pregnancy? Feels like I'm underwater when I talk. It's intermittent. I'm 27 weeks but had it for a couple of months now. It's driving me nuts. Gp said I don't have wax and that it's eustachian tube dysfunction. Anyone had this and did it go after birth? Any tips of managing in the meantime? Thanks so much x

Postpartum
Ugh! I cannot stress it enough! The brain fog is insane and not something I can’t control 😟 I left my phone in Starbucks bathroom and thought I left it in the Ross changing rooms. Whole time I didn’t notice until I was asked about my phone!! Luckily it was still in the Starbucks bathroom but UGH! How do you make this stop??? I swear one day I might forget I have a baby! My son! Like I don’t know. This isn’t predictable and it just happens when it happens and I don’t notice until asked. Do any other mom’s experience this? What do you take or do?

Elective cesarean date?
Hi! I have a few medical issues and the general advice from practitioners is to opt for a caesarean.
I’m just wondering how many weeks in advance I might know my date? I have an obstetrician appointment eight weeks before my due date, is it likely I might get my date signed off then?
Due date is currently 25th of December.
Thank you!
