Cramp
I woke up the other night with extreme cramp in my calf, it eased after a while but I can still feel it a few days later. My calf just feels so tight.
Anyone else experience this? And what can I do to help?

Yes, i get that quite often. Its usually caused from low levels of magnesuim or potassium and/or dehydration.
I was suffering with this early pregnancy. Try magnesium supplements
Agreed magnesium and rest works
I suffer every night with cramp atm.
My midwife said eat a banana every evening as its full of magnesium to help with muscle cramps. Also keep hydrated.

6 week check
I just had my 6 week check for me and baby, Is it normal for them not to see ur c section scar? It was a very quick appointment for me where they asked if my mood was okay and if I wanted contraception. Iām just guessing that Iām now able to get a bath, lightly exercise ectā¦

24w & 3 days
I was super excited to make it to 24ws. However OB check up was yesterday, since being seen every week in the high risk clinic I am now on a heart monitor. After experiencing several heart palpitations docs are concerned. I got a EKG done in the beginning of pregnancy because I was experiencing heart palpitations which ofc came back normal. Now Iām finally being monitored. Iām happy and sad b/c itās so much with having an autoimmune disease and being pregnant. My first child is 3 and I didnāt have to go through any of this. Some days are definitely easier than others š®āšØ
Is anyone else on a heart monitor or have been while pregnant?

Stubborn October babes?
Has anyone else got a seriously stubborn bubba who seems to have absolutely NO intention of making an appearance? šš
Iām 40+6, 3cm dilated, had 3 sweeps, lost A LOT of mucus, and had 3 evenings of contractions after my second sweepā¦ only for everything to completely stop and NOTHING since! š«
Now Iāve got an induction booked for Monday, so it looks like our October baby girl might just become a November baby girl! šš¤
At this point, I think sheās far too comfy in thereā¦ but Mumma has officially had ENOUGH! šš¤°š¼
