Two weeks postpartum and the only thing keeping me going is coffee. Zzzzzzz

Recently ran to the comments of a post following the “met my younger self for coffee” trend 😂 She said she’d punch her younger self in the face for saying she was tired. The comments were full of ladies without kids getting super triggered like, “We’re all exhausted!” and mamas saying it’s not…

Girls, I know I shouldn't be embarrassed but I am hence the anonymous post but I'm really worried, has anyone experienced this... for just abit before birth and for the whole 6 months of my daughter being in this world, I have wiped bright red blood from my bum, quite a lot, and some days it won't be as bad but majo...

Hey all! I’m 12+3 today and last night I noticed I had a bit of spotting. I’ve been having a bit of cramping for a few days so the spotting freaked me out a little. This is my second pregnancy and I didn’t have this with my first. My doctors aren’t concerned, but I can’t help but feel like something may be wrong. Ha...

Hi I’m 9 weeks and on two anti sickness tablets my symptoms have drastically improved over night I’m worried my mind is just thinking the worst

I keep getting sharp pains when I’m singing randomly in my belly or when I’m startled, is that my baby reacting to me and moving as it only happens randomly I’m 16 weeks - i dunno what else it could be besides the baby getting bigger etc but I’ve been told it’s my baby moving

Is anyone else experiencing this and does anyone know what it is likely to be?

Anyone else feeling baby move in their vagina? - my first baby, it feels so weird 😂

I’m getting worried as my bump is so different to when I was pregnant with my first!

Hi! I’m currently 18 weeks pregnant and I don’t think I’ve felt the baby move yet. I’ve got a posterior placenta. The only movements I’ve had is almost like a jabbing pain? Which moves above every couple of hours? The only way to describe it is someone jabbing the inside of me with a small pen or something? Anyon...

My boobs are feeling less sore (still slightly sensitive when I touch them) and I know that’s probably silly, but after having recurring miscarriages I can’t help but worry.. I’m 10 weeks and still have all other symptoms (Bad nausea, fatigue, headache, cramps & back ache) Am I overthinking the loss of this one sy...

Have your periods gone back to normal since having LO? 15 months on and on my heavy days I'm REALLY heavy (tampons are a waste of time), I'm spotting around ovulation which I never used too and sometimes even actually bleeding.

Is anyone else experiencing light spotting? I didn’t get it with my first baby, and after a mc it’s just so triggering. Anyone have this, or had it in a healthy pregnancy 🙏🏻? Currently 5+3

Tiredness has slammed me the past few days, gone from having loads of energy and got through my list of tasks/prep and now I’m like a sloth always falling asleep

Throughout this pregnancy I’ve been working out daily, running 5-6 miles, lifting weights etc. I run daily and weights 3x weekly. last week I started to get super weak. I can hardly go up stairs, I need to take a break. I just went for a run only 4.6 miles and I had to find the nearest place to sit down and call my...
