Hi all! I haven't posted in Tri 1 as i only found out I was pregnant at 12 weeks. Im now 15 weeks and found out a week ago that I'm expecting twins. I already have a little girl who is 14 months old, and I was never off here during my pregnancy with her. My twins are MoMo which means...

How do you choose? There are so many technical phrases that I don't know which to go for! Can anybody recommend? I want her to be really comfy and supported, but safe as poss obviously! x

Is this something that just starts to happen on its own, or is there a way of 'encouraging' it? India is only 7 weeks old at the moment, but I am thinking about my return to work at the start of September. Thanks x

We bought a furniture range from mamas and papas that included a cotbed. We got a huge discount for taking the ex display model. I have just been having a look at it and thinking how it converts to a bed, as we got no instructions. It's just occurred to me that maybe w should have been given...

What sort of questions do you get asked and also should I expect my stitches to be examined/checked to make sure they're healed? Thanks xx

... Breastfeeding :( I have been really proud of myself and India for breastfeeding so far, but it seems to be getting harder and harder and I think I'm going to give up. I feel really awful about it like im letting her down n am a rubbish mum. Things started so well, she took to it...

Just wondering if anyone can answer the following questions ... 1) if you expressed milk so you could give your baby a bottle, how long did you wait before doing this? I am worried about letting my oh feed her using a bottle as I've read about 'nipple confusion' and don't want to do anything...

India is 18 days old. Off the last 3 or 4 days she has cried everytime I've tried to put her in her Moses basket or bouncer. She just wants to be held all the time. She even falls asleep in my arms and then screams as soon as I put her down. I can't get anythin done around the house and it's...

I'm about to embark on expressing for the first time so that I can get a stock of milk in the freezer. How much should I expect to express each time? I have no idea how much would be considered the 'average' amount! Thanks xx

I developed a very itchy rash on my belly in the stretchmarks when I was about 34 wks pregnant. I didn.t think much of it as I put it down to the skin stretching and the heat,a nd the midwife didn't seem concerned either. Since I gave birth last Sunday however the rash has spread. It now...

My baby is only 5 days old and breastfeeding has been going great so far. Im really enjoying it (didn't think I would like it tbh) and am very keen to continue it as long as possible. Do I need to express between feeds to keep my milk supply up? At the moment I have plenty for what she...

Hi everyone!!! Hope you are all doing well. I am finally getting around to posting my labour story, the last few days have been busy to say the least! Well, as you probably know I was booked in to be induced on Sunday morning at 8:30am. I had a sweep on the Saturday and off home we went...

Well we arrived to be told we were there for induction. We said that's not what we were told, we thought it was just to discuss it, check baby over and get a date but they said nope it's today and put us on the ward. After sitting/laying there for 30 mins a midwife came to say they'd made a...

Please can everyone cross something (not legs if you're full term haha) that I get some positive news today and I get an induction date that is really soon! I really don't want to have to wait until Tuesday so am hoping they will want me in asap! Hope everyone's well :dance:

About labour and birth, and having a new baby! Is this normal?! I was expecting to be really nervous and scared but it's all just left me! Maybe it's because I'm overdue but I just feel Totally ready for it now and not at all scared! I do hope I'm not lulling myself into a false sense of...
