Baby movements

Has anyone found in the last few weeks their movements have been completely different from what it was originally? I feel like it’s gone from kicks to more of them moving inside of me and now their kicks feel like tiny palpitations instead rather than just forceful kicks.

Early labour back pain?

Anyone had lower back pain when they were in early labour? If so did it feel different to usual pregnancy backache?

Eating out help

How are we dealing with eating out and nausea?? I’m going for a meal for a family birthday, I’ve checked the menu and everything is turning my stomach 🙈 can I just sit there and eat my rich teas and sip my water?!

Nightmares

My partner cheated when we first got together a couple years ago. We've been fine ever since and even though it took me a long time to heal from it, I managed to start trusting them again.

Feel organs moving postpartum?

When I lie back in the couch in the evenings I can feel movement in my abdomen both internally, and if I place my hand on my stomach. It’s a strange feeling, almost like a ball moving slowly under my skin. Has anyone else experienced this?
