Mounjaro/Wegovy

Has anyone used either of these? Obviously there is a large difference in price - are they worth it?
I need to feel confident again and I cannot physically loose this weight after my second child. I had friends be on it and they look amazing but not heard anyone be on Wegovy!

Thanks 😘

As a pharmacist (and personally) I’d probably go for Mounjaro if you’re suitable for it. From what we’ve seen it generally gives better weight loss results than Wegovy and really helps with appetite. Side effects are pretty similar with both though mainly nausea, diarrhoea, constipation or feeling a bit sick especially when you first start or increase the dose. Wegovy is still really good but Mounjaro seems to have the edge overall 😊

I’ve been on mounjaro and it has helped my confidence so much!! I lost a lot of weight but you just need to be careful to increase the dosage gradually!! It did knock me with the side effects quite badly but it has been a great tool :) x

7 HOURS!

I'm SOO worried. I am exclusively breastfeeding my son who will be 6 weeks old on Saturday. He feeds every 3 hours usually (I set an alarm through the day and night but also feed whenever he shows hunger cues).
My phone died in the night and my alarm didn't go off and he's gone 7 hours without a feed. He woke and fed normally for half an hour but I'm worrying. He's never been that long without a feed before.
I contacted my maternity ward and she didn't seem worried but I'm wondering now whether I need to feed every 2 hours instead of 3 to ensure he has enough feeds in 24 hours.
Sorry for the LONGGGGG post!

Prolapse :(

I’ve had 1 natural birth and ended up with a grade 2/3 vaginal prolapse. They won’t operate due to my age and severity and pessaries either fall out, don’t help or are too painful to insert (cube). I feel really sad about it and now we are in the season where everyone is getting sick it’s getting worse by the day and there is nothing I can do about it. I obviously don’t want to have sex either because it hurts and I’m embarrassed. Does anyone have any advice on things to help in any way? Super embarrassing and really getting me down now

Long sleep!

I accidentally let my five week old have a seven hour sleep between feeds! We were all sleeping so deeply that my alarm didn’t wake me up for her feed. She eventually woke me up but she wasn’t screaming and she wasn’t upset, she was just stirring in her cot next to me. I definitely would have heard her if she had woken up earlier. (She is breastfed and well above her birth weight)

Has this happened to anyone else??
