(Getting impatient to find out the gender I’m so excited) 😂

Has anyone ever got a progesterone injection in Ontario?

Anybody got any advice? Supplements they take etc? Mine is non existent and I really want it back.

Anyone else see a MFM? Just wondering if anyone knows if there will be an increase in visits by both my OB and MFM towards the end of pregnancy

so i keep hearing from doctors that zofran isnt a safe medication to take while pregnant, but i keep reading posts on here saying ob’s are prescribing it. does anyone know anything more in depth about nausea meds dos/donts??

Can the contraceptive pill stop ur periods? Or it just depends on the person like the other contraceptives ??

What contraception (if any) are you using since giving birth? I don't want to get pregnant again just yet but I don't want to go back on the pill as it took my hormones years to settle and for my period to come back after I stopped it last time. I've thought about the copper coil but really don't like the idea of so...

Used to be on cerazette a few years ago but came off to have children. I’ve started back on it over the past month and have had continuous bleeding-is this normal? I never had this when I was on it before. 27 days of bleeding and counting. Doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of even slowing down !?!?

What contraception are you on (if any) I was on the depo but I bled for 6 months straight and gave me bad migraines so I come off it about a month ago & looking to go back on another type. Would not go on the implant or coil, is there any other options apart from them and the pill?

Yes, I wash my hands. I’m just asking ** 😂

I’ve recently had a baby boy after having a little girl I feel very lost. When do I need to pull back the foreskin to clean? Nurses told me to leave it but never said when to start cleaning.

I have extremely bad period pains and Panadol does not help and i don’t want to use contraception as a way to manage the pain. Has anyone used a tens machine or have recommendations?

I know some people do, but I don't. I think it's nasty .

Anon because I feel so stupid but I've just realised I've been taking cyclizine too often. I just take it whenever I feel nauseous and not leaving a 8 hour gap. Probably 4 hours if that😭. Does anyone know if this will affect my baby? Have a midwife appointment tomorrow so planning to ask her but panicking in the…

I got my withdrawal bleed in the first week, so wondering how long until my first period...

I’m just wondering if I could get advice on contraception. I was on the mini pill prior and that’s all I’ve known since a young teenager so just wanted to get advice on the depo injection, patches etc just as when baby comes I’m 10000% protecting myself so we don’t get caught too early

Hi. I had my daughter in august 2023 by emergency c section. when she was about 5 weeks old i went on to the mini pill where i take a tablet each day without a break, and my periods fully stopped. i’ve took them ever since and i stopped taking the pills roughly 3/4 months ago. i’ve still not had a period but light s...

Hey Mammas to be! I’ve got an overnight Spa break tomorrow. I’m 18+4 and I was wondering if I chose to have a 50 minute facial, could I be led on my back for the whole time? Any advice would be great 🩷

Just wondering if any of you girlie's are taking sertraline? Did it work? Did you have any symptoms? I'm 3 days in so just curious. Thank you.

really scared to use the internal tablet for the first time tonight as advised by my gp… I read about blood side affects and am worried it’s gonna send me into a spiral as I’ve had scares with blood recently, my thrush on the outside is improving a lot… if I don’t use it internally will it cause me further issues😩…
