My nanna who is going to be 90, didn’t get my baby a 1st birthday card (she said at the time, if I buy him one do you want to accept it) all because I wouldn’t invite one of my violent cousins to his 1st birthday party

I’ve not spoke to her for 10 months now - it’s coming to her 90th birthday next week. Would you get a card? My little boy still sees her with my dad, he takes him weekly. I just don’t as she was mean to me

Do I need to tell my hairdresser I'm pregnant??

I'm currently almost 10 weeks pregnant and I have a hairdresser appointment this evening, do I have to tell her I'm pregnant? I really don't want to as I'm not 12 weeks yet and haven't had my scan but I'm not sure if it's something I should be telling her or not? Any help would be appreciated

Help?

I had a positive today at 13dpo. However, when I go for a bowel movement I am experiencing bright red bleeding. Is this concerning?

Gender reveals

Hey! Curious about when people are doing their gender reveal scans? I’m 13 weeks and deciding whether or not to wait until the 20 week scan or to do it slightly earlier at 16+ weeks? My family want to keep it a surprise and my boyfriends want to find out, just not sure how long I can keep a secret for!!

Excessive saliva

Has anyone else had this? I’m producing so much saliva and if I swallow it 9 times out of 10 it makes me sick! It’s disgusting, I’m having to spit into a cup constantly and I feel like I can’t go out in public or go to work like this 😫 I don’t know anyone else who’s had it but apparently it’s a pretty normal…
