24 hours ladies!

I used to be in this group, and somehow it disappeared/kicked me out a few weeks ago. How can I get back in. Can you add me @BabyG123. Im a FTM and having a UK group was a great support network to understand that what i'm going through is semi-normal.

Hi ladies
Hope your all well.
Just wondering if any body has thought of what milk they are thinking of using if they aren't breastfeeding.
Thanks

28weeks today 😍

@Bubbabee hey! I used aptimal profutura with my first and I absolutely swear by it and will be buying it again if breastfeeding doesn’t work out again! I’m 26 weeks! I think it’s going so fast! Hope you are keeping well.

Hey @Lollipop93 aww fab. I'll have a read up on that one. Yeah doing ok. Went shopping today and got my pram and cot. Starting to feel real now. Hope your keeping well xx

26+3 today crazy to think our babies will be here soon!! Can't wait for mums to stay sharing their baby pics or updating us through their labour ( if they choose too obviously) just so excited 😆

Is it still possible to join the facebook group? x

Anyone else find it oddly comforting to see new groups going up on the forum, "May club", "June club" etc.? Makes me realise how far I've come.

28+5 weeks pregnant with a very wriggly baby!

@CoalCraft yeh makes me smile can't believe we are nearly towards the end....

Mucus plug or discharge?! First time mum. Sorry for the graphic pic. Freaking myself out as I passed this about 3 weeks ago. Have had quite a bit of discharge throughout pregnancy. Online searches are proving confusing as some say MP will be streaked with blood or brown ish, clear jelly like. But others say it could be yellow-ish. Size wise this was about a 10p piece. And some say it could be a few weeks before you then go into labour?! I’m only 26 wks so majorly panicking now. Especially as I’ve had on and off abdominal/pelvic pain/discomfort which I can feel more if I tense up my legs. Have spoken to midwife and doc about the discomfort as it’s sometimes worse when moving and they thought it might be linked to pelvic girdle pain so I have a virtual physio appt Monday. Then I saw another post about mucus plugs on a different forum and panicked.

@Louscarlet looks very much like discharge I've been getting on and off throughout pregnancy and even before, when on the pill. It has been seen by medical staff when I've had pelvic exams for other reasons and they haven't remarked on it other than to say "oops, bit of discharge in the way". My understanding is that the mucus plug is harder, darker and may be streaked with blood.

@CoalCraft thank you. That reassured me. I’ve got my next midwife appt 4th November so, (assuming nothing untoward happens between now and then!) I’ll show her the pic too (don’t envy midwives much ). I know I shouldn’t do online searching as it sets your mind racing (I’ve already thought I had so many other things along this pregnancy journey thanks to google) but it’s hard as I’ve no idea what to expect and as an older FTM (40) I’m anxious a lot

@Louscarlet even if it was your plug it grows back so don't worry! Lost bits of mine from 28 weeks onwards and I didn't go into labour until I got induced at 38 weeks 😊

@pineapplejuice20 thank you. This is all so new to me and I really need to stop scaring myself as I think (hope) my body will tell me in many ways if something significant is happening! It’s hard as I’m so desperate for this to work as it will likely be our only baby as I’m 40 and not had the easiest time x

@Louscarlet yeah you'll be absolutely fine. Only worry if you see blood in it as that's different as it's called the "bloody show" which can be a sign of labour, from what I remember 😊 x

Hello everyone, how is everyone doing?

Im now 30 weeks and 2 days. Have a growth scan next week. Everything seems to be doing well. I've started getting stretchmarks on my boobs! Wasn't expecting that and have only been oiling my tummy

Can't believe we are nearly at the end of this blessed journey.
Can't wait to start getting news of the new arrivals!

Not sure who on here is on the Facebook group but 2 BABIES HAVE ALREADY BEEN BORN!!! starting to set in now and getting impatient how's everyone feeling 🤭 x

Is there a link for the Facebook group please? xx

I'm in the Dec 20/Jan 21 group but haven't seen any babies born yet???

Wow that's amazing
I'm not on Facebook but can't wait to hear news on here... so exciting
@Carabu1 I am sure you were ahead of us all? Hope your well

Hello everyone. Hope you're all doing well. I'm 29+1 and have been a MN lurker since the beginning. Would love to join the expecting in January Facebook group, if it's not too late. Take care all 🤍😊 x

Are we able to open up the Facebook page again. I only have a global on and its full of Americans that makes it difficult to fully relate to. Im a FTM and with lockdown it would be good to feel connected to others as we get closer to crunch time!

Sure I'll put a post on there and ask to reopen. The women who have had their babies have had them quite early but appear to be doing ok. How's everyone doing with preparing and now with the 2nd lockdown x
