This is my 2nd pregnancy, and this time my placenta is anterior too - I felt my first kick at 17w exactly. No flutterings/bubbles before that, and they still only feel light at this stage. Seems ...

Hi Becs, Sorry for late reply! For my first pregnancy we decided to have a baby, but due to my medical history was expecting it to take a while. However, much to our shock, my son was conceive...

Hi Becs, I can't comment on what it is like with #2 yet (not due to arrive till Feb!) but I am interested in the replies too. But it is wonderful to hear from others who have been in a similar sit...

11 weeks for me - fully breastfeeding too. What a pain! By that stage some of my friends had even had got AF! It was much lighter after 6w, but I definitely still needed several pads a day until...

This is baby number 3 for me, and I've never had them this early before. There's no pain at all, just a few times a day my belly goes as hard and round as a bowling ball. Should I be concerned abo...

12.5 months. Was still breastfeeding, although only 3x day and none at night since 7 months. Was very happy when it returned as was trying to conceive!

Hi, I spotted right from conception till about 11 weeks. Bright red blood too, but often mucosy (sorry if TMI). Minimal or no cramping though. All was good at the 12w scan. Midwife said it can ...

My boy was a cat-napper too, from about 5-6 months old. He would go down to sleep really well, but would mostly only sleep 40-45 mins. I tried various settling techniques (because what I read told...

I'm sure a lot of the issues are global across hospitals and birthing centres The perinatal/postnatal unit is extremely hot and stuffy (although I did have my baby in February, which makes a dif...

Aaarggh!!!! . From 7w-11w I had no vomiting, but almost constant nausea + bad taste in mouth, but then started to ease. However..... since 14w - I get these very sudden urges to vomit/gag, which...

Thanks Ladies! If I didn't find a toddler bed, then my next option was to move to a lower single bed, although my boy is still quite little and he would look huge in it. I guess I just wanted s...

How did you teach them to self settle? Hehe, I was going to ask the same thing! My DS started sleeping about 10pm - 6am I think at around 6 months, but he would only do this 50% the time. When...
