It is normal …

To have pale pink on the tissue for two days and then it gets slightly heavier by the third? It’s not as heavy as a period but it’s definitely heavier than it was for two days. I was due on on Wednesday and started getting pale pink but only on the tissue on Thursday?

Blackout curtains help!

These curtains don’t let any light in through the curtain itself, but the light comes in through the top and sides since the rod is away from the window. Any solutions?!

Is it a sign of labour?

Nearly 38 weeks - Yesterday I had a full day of on and off ‘period pains’ which at times became quite intense. It settled last night. I’ve woken up today extremely irritable and crying for absolutely no reason I’ve had to take myself back to bed. Is this a sign of labour? I feel awfully low today 😒😔
