My baby kicks so much at night I literally cry

It’ll go on for hours nonstop just constant kicking and moving all over the place every night. I’m 22 weeks. I know there is nothing I can do, and some moms hardly feel their baby at this stage but I just wanna complain 😭😭 I’ve been sitting/ laying on my couch for almost two hours now and he has not stopped moving.

Baby is so long!

My little girl is 5 weeks old and she’s outgrown 0-3 month clothing and 3-6 month is loose around the belly but her feet are pushed up right to the end! I’ve tried different brands and all have the same issue, anyone else have an extremely long little one?

Question

Anyone have a hematoma while pregnant in the first trimester? I have horrible back pain along with stomach cramping. Could this just be the normal side effect of this thing? 😩 I didn’t have this with my first.

Hi, can I have some advice please?

Sorry for TMI. Out of nowhere tonight after eating my tea (fish and chips from the chippy) I was in severe pain, going dead hot, belly was making rumbling sounds. Eventually I had diarrhea and released a lot of wind which eased the pain a bit. Since then I have been getting on and off pain with diarrhea, and can sti...
