Baby girl is here!

I had my baby girl July 3rd via c-section but what was crazy is I started going into labor just hours before my scheduled c-section which I found perfect timing.
Also happy 4th of July!

2nd birth latent phase of labour

Have felt like I'm in the latent phase of labour for past 2 days now. Thought this part would be way quicker with a 2nd birth, is anyone else on a 2nd+ birth and stuck at this stage too? Is it likely to last days/ weeks?

I can’t stand being pregnant

I can’t wait until I hit 40 weeks. So thankful for my bundle of joy but I legit cannot stand the emotional and physical toll it takes to grow a baby😭

What's happening in your world?

I love we are all in same age range with our babies. Keen to hear what's happening with you all!
Feel free to just vote or leave comment if you have more than 1 happening!

Another chemical 😭

Really thought this was my month. Anyone else had more than one and then conceived quickly after?

Preparing to give birth alone

36 weeks and looks like I’ll be
Welcoming my baby all by myself.. I’m so sad

11 days PP

My baby is 11 days old and I love her so much. We waited 8+ years for her and she is our rainbow baby 💓
But man postpartum is hitting hard. I’m so tired, overwhelmed and just touched out but hanging in there because I am so grateful. What a rollercoaster ride.

Who else Had both Pregnancy and Birth a positive experience?

I enjoyed my pregnancy and birth but feel I can't talk about it as everyone else had bad experiences.

Preparation

Mums due early September, what have you bought/got ready so far?? I’m due on the 2nd and I feel so unprepared time is flying!!

Any help x

Hey. Feeling sad today. Half way through the year and still not pregnant! Trying to not get too down but it feels hard today. Lots of friends’ pregnancy announcements today too. I am lucky enough to have a 3 year old. So grateful for him but feels tough still. I wish i just was content with the one i have already. Does anyone feel content and happy with their one? Or even, if anyone feels happy and content on the same trying to concieve journey? Any words of comfort? Really struggling today. 34 year old female on the edge here. I often get worried about the pressure of not getting any younger/ age too ! X

I don’t want the newborn phase to end 🥹

This baby is my third and definitely my final baby and I am soaking it allllll up. It hits differently when you know it’s your last. The days are long but the years are short - make the most of it all if you can mamas these really are the most special days 🥰

Happy Due Month!!

Happy due month to all the July mamas! I’m 37 weeks today due July 22nd (also my birthday) how is everyone feeling?? I got my cerclage out this morning and back home patiently waiting for his arrival! Let’s see those bump pics/maternity pics!

First antenatal appointment today!

Feels very surreal being sat back in this waiting room again!

AHHHHHH

Im so sick and tired of this pregnancy and people asking if baby is here or showing signs yet. Like have I told you baby is here NO then guess what HES NOT BLOODY HERE STOP BLOODY ASKING. Rant over

How are we all doing?

How is everyone feeling?

Hey, how is everyone feeling? Ive been feeling fine all through until now. Im absolutley hating the experience now, im so uncomfortable, pressure is insane, lightening crotch is killing me, and I feel like im counting down the days.

I cannot wait to feel the relief of having my baby in my arms and no longer in my body!

Is anyone else at this stage where theyre feeling completely done and just want it to be over? :(

Progress with my PT

I started my postpartum journey with my PT at the end of April. I'm quite happy with my progress so far.
