Fed up

I'm 37+2 and just feel done in. Everything hurts and just run out of strength to do such basic tasks. Trying to get organised before organising hospital bags etc and just feel overwhelmed. Even feel fed up of moaning all the time! Surely I'm not alone!

I don’t feel pregnant

Ok so I took 6 pregnancy tests and all of them say I’m pregnant (we’re trying) but….i don’t feel pregnant. For my son I was sick right away and had symptoms from the start and with this baby I’m 5 weeks and nothing seems to have changed. And it’s making me sooo so nervous. Anyone else have this?

Anterior placenta

Hey mom's I'm 20 weeks pregnant with my second kid and have found out I have an anterior placenta. I'm wondering when others that had an anterior placenta started feeling true kicks? I feel them so occasional and they still feel like they could just be gas bubbles. Does counting kicks work differently?
