Cot

My little girls just turned 6 months today & we’ve decided it’s time for her to go into her big girl bed ( cot ) 🥹😭. Is it normal for me to be this nervous? I’m just over thinking about everything.. what if she rolls onto her front & she can’t get back over etc. did anyone else worry like this?

Anyone else?

Is anyone else feeling more and more scared for what's to come the closer you get to D-day. I'm 30+2 now and I'm starting to get really scared about labour (this is my first baby). I'm such a woose when it comes to pain. I can't wait to meet my little lady though.

Reaching the pregnancy point

I am 34 weeks and I think I have reached the annoyed stage of pregnancy. I swear to god my belly just expanded, it is just so round and big and starts to terrify me of its size. I am starting to get forgetful and snappy and cranky. I miss a good time with rose and lying on my stomach. I was so happy up until now ...

Really struggling to eat.

I am extremely worried that I will ingest something that will be fatal to my baby. I’m struggling to make myself food and getting takeaway/eating out causes so much anxiety. I’m 27 weeks pregnant with my second baby after I lost my first to miscarriage. Looking for support.

Should I be concerned?

I’m 23 weeks and 2 days and my fatigue has been so bad today. I can barely function. My belly feels heavy but baby has not been moving as much. Found baby’s heartbeat on a at home Doppler though. Should I be concerned?

Does it bother you when people comment on your size during pregnancy?

Comments like, “Wow! You’ve gotten so big!” “You’ve REALLY popped!” “You’ll be huuuuge in a month!”

Extreme anxiety during pregnancy

Hi all! I’m 13 weeks pregnant and I have been feeling so much anxiety, tight throat, and had 2 panic attacks. I’m anxious about everything.

Nervous

Hi mamas! I had my daughter in June of ‘24 and am pregnant (unplanned) due in December of this year. I’m five weeks along but am panning on scheduling a C-Section as early as my OB says is safe. Is 18 months between births enough? Scared of putting too much stress on the scar.
