Last night after work I went into triage because of reduced movements I’m coming up to 26 weeks they used a Doppler and got her heart beat and sent me on my way I’ve woke up this morning and I’m stressing even more because I’ve still felt nothing! She is normally squirming about constantly even with my anterior plac...

At risk of sounding like a smug bitch (and apologies in advance if I do) I'm currently 35 weeks and have no stretch marks or hemorrhoids, have I got away with it (I'm not too concerned if stretch marks appear but hemorrhoids sound awful) or is there still time? Anyone got to the same point as me and then they've had...

I seem to always wake up in the middle of the night needing a wee then can’t settle again and just stay up tossing and turning my lower back is in agony and the pain switches from back pain to stomach cramps to back pain to stomach cramps anyone else have this?

Hey gals! I’m convinced I can feel little movements but I’m only 16 weeks with my first! Did anyone else feel early movement ?

Had my 25 week midwife appointment today and heartbeat is strong and when they heard the movements asked if I felt it and didn't. I haven't felt kicks as such just butterfly feelings my placenta is low but I have a scan tomorrow now to check baby has anyone else movement issues?

I guess this is more of a warning than anything. I have gone my whole pregnancy without stretch marks and I’ve been doing all the things to try and avoid them. This weekend my kitten got out and I did TONS of walking to find her. The walking caused my little one to drop. I noticed how low he was mid Sunday and today...

Hello all, I’m just wondering if anyone else stuffers from morning sickness I’m 20 weeks pregnant and I’ve been suffering with with since day 1! Is this normal to still being sick?)

Pregnant with my first and my bump is really defined, what is your bump like at how many weeks you are?

Had the day off work, was sick first thing this morning and have been feeling so nauseous and exhausted all day. Just woken up from a nap and now I have period type cramps too. Hate feeling like this! Maybe I need to ask for anti sickness tablets?

Is anyone else still struggling with sickness? I’m 15 weeks and cannot keep anything down most days, it’s even making my legs ache and feel heavy now. I don’t know what to do

I’m just 7 weeks at the moment and for the last two weeks i’ve had the most horrible taste in my mouth and my sense of smell is so so strong! It’s one of the things that really triggers my sickness too. Anyone else experience this? Any tips and tricks to curb the symptoms?

I'm so shy and self conscious about my breast changes since pregnancy/post birth. I was pumping loads but stopped a couple of months ago and since then I'm all saggy, so different to look at than before, squishy, floppy(?)... so so self conscious about this, I live in sports bras or nursing bras even though I'm not ...

I’m 6 weeks 6 days and I have been throwing up every morning for a week straight but this is the first morning I haven’t thrown up. Is this normal?

I'm 11+4 today and this is my 2nd pregnancy but I feel soooooo ill. My first born I didn't feel half as bad but this time I'm physically throwing up, I feel dizzy, I feel weak, I even feel weak in my body and blood 🙈 I don't know how to explain it it sounds pathetic but its just absolutely horrendous. I feel like I…

Lately I’ve been having sharp leg cramps especially on my right side. It radiates from my glute down to my calf. It usually happens when I’m sleeping and it wakes me up. I try to drink plenty of water but it does not seem to make a difference 😔 I remember it happened in my first pregnancy but not until late in the…

Hey girls, I’ve had really bad morning sickness been on tablets I was even in hospital; woke up this morning and I feel fine! Which has made me nervous because even on the tablets I’ve been still feeling shit! I’m 11 weeks this Thursday

Hi, is there anywhere in Hull that has maternity clothes or bras in store? My body has changed so much I don't know what size I am at all!
