At what point did your vivid dreams go? I’ve read that they go after childbirth but if that’s the case I’ve still got 36 weeks to go of these scary dreams. They’re very dark and nasty and they’re making me not enjoy this pregnancy as I’m so scared all of the time of bad things happening like the dreams. This pregnan...

Is anyone exhausted? Approaching 11 weeks and have a toddler. Sickness has eased but I can barely leave the house I’m that tired? Not sure if something else going on or standard! Wouldn’t have known with my first as slept whenever I fancied 😂

I'm currently 29+1 and the last 24 hours my movements feel different. I have felt movement throughout the day as usual but they just feel different. They feel more distant and more movement than kicks. Anyone else has anything like it?

Started having minute long contractions starting at about 1 am but the frequency between each one was all over the place. Decided to sleep it off now it’s 5am and Im woke up out my sleep, my stomach is so tight and my whole belly hip area feels sore and almost like I need to poop/ throw up and the contractions are...

Hey ladies, I am 23+4 and still being sick and nauseous. Just wondering if anyone else is the same? Feeling super alone in this morning sickness that just won’t leave me alone! 😩😔

I’m 30 weeks now.. wondering if anyone else struggling at night with rib and hip pain? And what are you doing to get comfy? I have a ‘half moon’ pillow on either of me and putting a pillow in between my legs but wondering if I should get the longer pregnancy pillow? I’m only getting it at night and it’s killing me o...

So I had a swab done at the doctors on Friday as my partner had one last Monday and got his results back Thursday and got told he’s got strep b. I have just got my results back today and I’ve got strep b and also thrush (for the third time this pregnancy) I’ve spoken to my midwife and she’s reassured me it’s nothing...

Having period type cramps, since 9 am this morning, loose stools.. took painkillers at 9 am this morning, seems to settle but coming back again now.. 34 + 1 weeks, I also was having regular and constant braxton hicks last night.. what would you do?

I’ve woken up every night in tears for the past week after dreams of going into early labour and my baby being really sick. It’s the same dream since I hit 30 weeks. I don’t really know what to do, I feel like I’m losing control. Is this normal justified anxiety ?

I’ve been so tired lately and been laying in bed so much. I find sometimes if I move to quick I get like a sharp cramp on my outer sides of my stomach. Anyone know what this might be ? Hard to explain such a weird symptom. It def takes my breathe away

Hi all! I’m currently in my 38th week of pregnancy. Feeling all the aches and discomforts in my pelvis, hips and groin the last couple days. Today in particular has been tough to stand for long bouts, but it’s been days since I had a comfortable period sleeping or sitting. Is anyone else experiencing this? I canno...

I’m finding I’m having the backache and cramps more towards the end of the day. Similar to period pains. I’m 35 weeks - I don’t have a midwife appointment for another 2 weeks but unsure if this is something I should be thinking could be labour oking or it’s just normal at this stage

I’ve started to get really sore hips from sleeping on my sides - it is often keeping me up at night and I’m then exhausted in the morning! I’ve tried different combinations of pillows to see if it helps and sometimes slightly relieves the pain but not entirely! It only seems to be at night and a bit when I wake up a...

I just sneezed and had this sharp pain but it went away I believe it was round ligament pain 😭😂 I’m 16 weeks and some days and it hurt for a couple seconds then went away! I’m sure this is normal!
