Smiling

When did your baby start smiling consistently?

My little one is 10 weeks and we get the odd smile every now and then but nothing consistent.
She was born just over 3 weeks early.. don’t know if that makes any difference to these small milestones being slightly delayed possibly but so desperate to see some more smiles! 😊

Our baby was born at 37 ½ weeks and he’s 11 weeks old today and he started properly smiling in the last week or so more often!

They say that it doesn’t, but I really think it does! Because mine was two weeks overdue and she’s been smiling consistently from four-five weeks which is too early

My babies were born 7 weeks early, one started smiling at 10 weeks and the other at 12 weeks. There is definitely a difference between chronological age and corrected age. For milestones and development always go from their corrected age, though I’m not sure if there will be a remarkable difference if baby was born 3 weeks early but you can always chat to your HV for more info!☺️

Elective c section Uk

Heyy so I’m currently waiting on a date for my c-section. How long did it take for you to get your dates and how did you feel being on steroids? This is my first c-section and I’m trying to prepare myself as I’ve been told I’ll have to take steroids 10 days before the c-section date, any tips I need to know for my c section and recovery I’d be very grateful

How far along are you guys and how has your pregnancy been?

I'll be 33 weeks tomorrow and I just found out at my last appointment a few days ago that I have some type of scar tissue in my uterus and when she did my fundal measurement she said he was measuring 30 weeks. Kinda worried tbh. My next ultrasound is Nov 5 and I'm hoping for good news.

Night sweats

I’m 15 weeks post partum and still getting really bad night sweats. Is anyone else experiencing this? I thought they’d have stopped by now.

So my son is 9 months old and I found out today I am 3+ weeks pregnant. My baby is due in July, my son turns 1 in January. Does anyone else have an age gap like this? How did it work? Are you ok mentally, physically? I'm stressed asf
