I had preeclampsia in my first pregnancy and delivered at 33+6 and my girlie spent the first 11 days of life in NICU. I’m nearly 26 weeks now and BP has been fine up to now, been on aspirin since 12 weeks and have growth scans at 32,36 and 40 weeks with consultant appointments after these. Not yet decided on VBAC or C section yet but interested to hear others experiences

I did and mine was born at 32+2 with a 4 week nicu stay. Exactly like you, aspirin, consultant led and growth scans booked. I’ve also not yet decided on birth as it feels so much harder this time around! Luckily doing ok so far but definitely getting anxious

Could have written this myself! I had preeclampsia from 26 weeks last time that developed into HELLP, and C-section at 30 weeks. I'm 27 weeks now, and so far so good. My midwife got my consultant to see me early on which was good, s I'm on his radar. She also scheduled a birth choices appointment earlier than usual for me, but still undecided. Elective gives me control over it all which is a big positive, but part of me wants to try VBAC too 😅 I think I'm going to maybe have a plan for both and just wait and see what happens. Think the next few weeks will be particularly anxious, but keep telling myself i've got further already without a hospital stay so that must mean things will be better over all.
Feel free to message if you fancy a chat as I know it's a bit of a confusing emotional rollercoaster!
I’m currently 5 weeks pregnant (5 weeks and 2 days, to be exact!) and got my positive pregnancy test last week. 🥰
I’m already a mum of two beautiful girls, and we’re excited to welcome another little one into our family!
I’m also plus-size, so one of my goals this pregnancy is to stay active, maintain a healthy pregnancy and avoid unnecessary weight gain. I’m hoping to make healthier choices, keep moving and look after myself and my little one throughout this journey. ❤️
Looking forward to sharing this July 2027 journey with you all! 💕

Hi everyone 😊
I collected a yellow sharps bin from the pharmacy today for my diabetes lancets, but unfortunately, I accidentally closed it before even using it. Now I cannot open it again.
Has anyone experienced this before? Is there any way to reopen it.
I would really appreciate any advice. Thank you! ❤️

I wasn’t really worried the first time around (4.5 years ago), this time I’m feeling a bit nervous already. I think because I know more this time

36 weeks and my body feels like shit. I also have an appointment tomorrow to see if he’s still breech. I honestly can’t tell just by feeling my stomach. Haven’t finished his nursery because I have no energy. Anyone else kind of in the same boat?
