What’s everyone’s cravings? I’m intrigued 🤩

My lo had a little bit of dried blood in her wet nappy when I was changing her is this something to be concerned about she has normal wet and dirty nappies and she’s drinking okay and acting normal.

Anyone experiencing vivid dreams?

I’m 10weeks today and I’ve tried everything under the sun to help with the nausea and sickness. When did people start to get some sort of relief from it? I’m at the point where I can’t even eat or drink anymore 🥲

I’m now 4 weeks pp and my bleeding has gradually got less and less until it became the light yellowish discharge that comes at the end. Iv been having that for a couple of days. Today Iv went to the loo and there is proper red blood on my pad again. And it’s a decent amount. Is this still lochia or is this likely to...

Hello! I’ll be 19wks tomorrow and for the past few weeks I have been unable to sleep more than 3-5 hours a night. If I haven’t woken up before the 5hr mark, I am bang on it and it’s like something wakes me suddenly, eyes wide open etc. I try often to go back to sleep but can’t. I end up feeling exhausted during th...

Bit TMI but does anyone have any suggestions for what to do for constipation? I have now been given two rounds of different laxatives, both of which haven’t done a single thing to me. Today, I’m in SO much pain in my belly, it hurts when I even move. The doctors don’t seem to help and just tell me it’s apart of bei...

Hey all hope you’re well I’m slightly in denial / disbelief regarding my positive pregnancy tests! Had a mc just before Christmas and still wondering whether the tests could be due to lingering hormones although I have had 2 periods. I’m supposed to be 6 weeks today but have no symptoms perhaps slight breast tend...

Gave birth 2 days ago and I am in agony! My stomach pain is killing me and my back hurts so much! I also have a fever. Breastfeeding hurts so much as i’m having after birth contractions! Anyone else having this?

Anybody else's baby is not rolling yet but spinning 360°? 😂 He arches to try and roll, but ends up slowly spinning around. I guess it alleviates his frustration with not being able to move 😅

I am exhausted. I have PCOS so awful fatigue has played a big part in my life for years. But now I feel like I'm finding it even harder. Getting up and dressed feels like a mountain and can't try to boost with caffeine. Work don't know yet (but WFH) so I feel like I am making excuses for tiredness, not being on the ...

I started getting pelvic pain (right far down) on Saturday and walking, turning in bed and even light duties are starting to take a toll and feels uncomfortable! I was 28 weeks yesterday and had no issues at all with my pregnancy until now. Does this sound like PGP? I have a midwife appointment tomorrow where I’m h...

I've had acid reflux or what I can only assume is acid reflux for around a week ALL day EVERYDAY! I've no idea how far long i am either, but it's awful and everything tastes horrible 😞

So disappointed, I felt so pregnant this time. I'm 8DPO & there was a red tinge when I wiped this morning & a negative result on a clear blue (6 days early test). Why is PMS so similar to pregnancy symptoms 😭 Wishing you all better luck this month xx

does anyone else feel like they just cant do it anymore? i cant sleep ever and struggle every single night because i constantly feel poorly. im just so exhausted
