Still waiting

Baby was due 3 days ago starting to wonder whether I'm going to have a September baby or whether they're going to make me wait for October. I've got a sweep booked for this afternoon so fingers crossed 🤞 who else is still waiting.

Anyone else in the 2 week wait right now?

Hey! I’m currently in the 2 week wait and was wondering if anyone else is and would like to chat/rant/connect? ☺️ We are trying for our 2nd baby and ovulation was on Sat or around then.

Is anyone else just done with pregnancy now?

34 weeks tomorrow and just ready for this baby to be evicted! I never struggled in my last pregnancy but this time everything seems to be going wrong 😩 I was diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism a few weeks ago and my anxiety is sky high and I just can’t breathe especially with a big boy pressing on my lungs 🤦🏼‍♀️ Please tell me I am not the only one who is done😭

Feeling all the emotions - c section is tomorrow!

Second pregnancy - third baby! Just feeling all the emotions at the moment as I’ve got my beautiful twin girls already and I am more thinking about them than my baby boy who is going to be born tomorrow! Also worried about my recovery and the c-section itself as there is more at risk.

Really hope that these sad feelings go and I feel happy and excited for the girls to have a new baby brother. Not sure why I’m posting.

Is anyone having their c section soon? Or has the same feelings? Xx

Been a while

I’m almost 21 weeks, haven’t posted since I was like 6-8? I’m having a baby girl!!!!! Who else?

10 weeks to go..

Second time mum and somehow feel less prepared than last time 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 but we’re almost there! Can’t wait for us all to meet our littles 💕💕

Pregnancy after 38

Hello, I would like to get pregnant again (has my first 16 months ago) but I worry that I won’t be able to.
My period is late but I’m not pregnant. I wonder if my getting too old …

Any experience to share from anyone who’s gone through it?

Many thanks xxx

2nd child and feeling huge

I am 12m post partum with my little boy, and recently found out I am pregnant with my 2nd (due 11th May).
Anyone else in similar situation and feeling like they look huge already!?
I have compared my bump size to photos of my 1st pregnancy (I am 11kg lighter since then too) and I look more along the 16w mark, not the 7w mark.
I had an early pregnancy scan to confirm dates too, so know im not further along.
Feeling very blessed to have got pregnant naturally too this time, as last time was a very hard fertility journey.

Best month to try and conceive?

We were thinking on trying for a baby soon but I don’t want to be sick over Christmas time?!🤣 when do you reckon is the best month to conceive. Mind you it might take a while as my boyfriend is 40 and a smoker??

Hang in there 41 weeks club!!

Just sending all strength and patience to the mummas in the 41 week club! It's tough and the days are long, and the nights too! But oh so worth it!

After 2 boys I got my surprise Girl at 41+4 this morning. Sending you all the good vibes that you all meet your babies soon ❤️

Newly pregnant!

I currently have a 5 year old and she’s been begging for a sibling for years! Well we finally conceived! After trying for almost 2 years. I’m just wondering how long did you guys decide to wait to tell your little ones? I know my girl will be so happy I want to wait until first ultrasound but that seems so farrrr I’m terrible at keeping secrets I’m worried I’m gonna say baby or pregnant infront of her to many times by accident 😅 I told my fiance will just put in back of minds for now so we don’t spill but that’s a little hard obviously lol

Second baby

Advice on second baby , when is the right time to start trying my daughter is going to be 1 next week and want advice on when to start trying for a second when is the right time and good amount of age gap between the 2 I would like to have a boy as then I have 1 of each but I’m happy either way I just would like 2 children just really scared. ! , as not to blow my own trumpet but the pregnancy went well with her i had a planned c section and that was all fine no complications or any problems, she was healthy and all fine and she’s just been the best baby she has slept for 12 hours a night from the age of 2 months she’s eating well she’s just perfect I’m just worried about the next baby the pregnancy or the birth something will be wrong or something could happen . Advice please and your own experiences

Anyone else struggling with deciding when to have 2nd child?

Or if you already have then how did you know you felt ready/ it was the right time. My husband is ready to try in the next few months if I am ready but I really can't decide what age gap I want. I feel the decision for me is complicated by previous baby loss, difficult pregnancy and traumatic birth and complications after birth...
I definitely know i want a sibling for my child and I'm not done yet but its more a matter of when?!

🤰🏼

Only took almost 2 years! But I’m pregnant with our rainbow baby!!!🥰 I can’t tell anyone so I’m telling you guys lol
