@George01, they really do literally all negative stuff is said to me constantly it's so annoying! like can someone just tell me something positive for once.. ive noticed TikTok is full of people saying dont get the induction its so baddd but I know its not the same for everyone. but thats great your sister had a good one! I hope I can be out and in same day lol, im hoping shell come before tbh ive been having lots of Braxton hicks past few days alot! im hoping that aa sign but not sure they really mean anything :/
@User767676 and yeah exactly im sure im guilty of doing it myself about some things :/ I have brought a cooler bag for colostrum I was planning on adding some snacks in there (cheese, peperami, fridge raiders) and some cheese cracker oat things, but not sure for meals tbh thats my worry as she said I could be there for days! the hospital is 40 mins from my house I was thinking maybe making just loafs of sandwiches keeping them In the fridge and getting my partner to get them and bring everyday :/ its so bad they dont really offer appropriate meals:/ I guess ill live on cheese chicken and oatcakes while im there as I know theyre safe lol till after cant wait for some bloody smarties lol
as for the ketones, its weird I either have nothing in my urine or loads of ketones
I think I was more dehydrated idk of that can cause them or not think they can but even the diabetes team keep telling me to up my carb intake as my levels are "low" they suggest drinking some orange juice when theyre "low" ( low as in 5.4...) I dont trust their advice as a glass of oj would spike me high.. its like they dont know what theyre even talking about I shouldn't even treat lows as im diet controlled not insulin! so also worried they'll just say oh ur low here's some juice and spike me ffs.

ive got a few things off there never had any issues with it, always arrived kinda slow tho for me!
Thank you both! If you don’t mind me asking what payment method did you use? Bit wary about using my card just incase
Oh right yeah be prepared that most of the clothing ones are probs from China so take a bit longer. But not much longer than Shein so between a week or two
I think I just used my card. Good luck frauding me, can’t steal from an overdraft

I just used Apple Pay, my sister has also brought loads from tiktokshop since it started was it 2022?, I think its pretty secure, I never had issues I think Apple Pay disguises your card number anyway if im not mistaken on that

if you have another card maybe someone in ur family doesn't use or yourself send them the money and use that card if ur not Sure I did this for temu lol!!
Thank you! I think I’ll use Apple Pay too
Do you take a multi vit with vitamin C? It can create a false positive for Ketones. Even a McDs size Tropicana can do it for me on a urinalysis dip stick.@George01, they really do literally all negative stuff is said to me constantly it's so annoying! like can someone just tell me something positive for once.. ive noticed TikTok is full of people saying dont get the induction its so baddd but I know its not the same for everyone. but thats great your sister had a good one!

Regarding negative stories of induction and after care in hospital, pretty much any element of the birth process just remember women are at their most vulnerable they’ll probably ever be.
The desperation for everything to go smoothly, the fear of the unknown, not to mention the possibility of being out of it on meds and the massive whack of hormones coursing through your body the whole time and days after… it’s very easy for everything to become amplified by 1000x.
I would swear up and down one of midwives after I gave birth was the biggest c*nt to have ever walked the earth and treated me like tit. But here’s the story - it was the middle of the night, I was desperately trying to breast feed alone in the dim, I was still out of it, I didn’t know what I was doing at all and was so vulnerable with this tiny, hungry human relying on me. The conversation was roughly “I don’t know what to do, I’m scared I’ll fall asleep while trying to feed” and she replied “well we can’t do it for you, if you can’t feed you’ll just have to give a bottle”. I felt belittled, dismissed, shamed, unsupported… but really, was I? Or was I projecting? She could’ve been nicer, gentler but what else could she say? I genuinely still don’t know. It was negative to me but did she really do anything wrong? It felt massive to me at the time and still upsets me but that’s probably on me.
A whole group of women on the hospital’s maternity page were moaning because the midwives had told the to remove their false/gel nails. They were furious, slagging them off. I’m sure they’d all tell everyone how awfully they were treated too…. But probably leave out it was over nails!

Use a credit card for anything you feel unsure about, then they can claw back the money if the item never arrives for some reason
Tomorrow is our big day and can finally tell everyone our news! I’m 16 weeks and I feel like I can’t hide it any longer
Got such a banging headache though, is paracetamol okay to take? X

So exciting! Have the best day. And yes you can take paracetamol at the normal dose. My headaches kicked off around 15/16 weeks so I think it’s quite common unfortunatelyTomorrow is our big day and can finally tell everyone our news! I’m 16 weeks and I feel like I can’t hide it any longer

thank you so much! I’ve woken up everyday with one but could also be stress/tension headaches. Gutted I had to cancel my Botox too up
Happy wedding day!! So excitingthank you so much! I’ve woken up everyday with one but could also be stress/tension headaches. Gutted I had to cancel my Botox too up
Bang on 26 weeks and the heartburn kicked in last night. Also, starting to feel so uncomfortable now. I feel like this baby has been so low the whole time, it’s like it’s lying right in at my groin. Going to book a 4d scan for next week so I have something to count down to for a bit of excitement. Still tempted to find out the gender!
Hi everyone. When did you get your pram delivered? I’m 27 weeks now and we picked mid July for ours to come, and now I’m thinking maybe it should come sooner just in case
I’m 34 weeks and ours is coming this week! Feels about right so it’s here just in case but isn’t taking up too much space around the house for too long. If you have the space though go for it!
Happy wedding day @Amylaauren !! Have the most amazing day xx
I feel like my paranoia has gone into overdrive. The pain I was in yesterday thankfully totally went away by night time, but I don't think I've felt baby move since. Possibly a couple of really faint movements that might not even have been baby. There's no real pattern of movements yet, she's different from one day to the next but I'm really worried 
If you are worried why don't you call the maternity unit?I feel like my paranoia has gone into overdrive.

If you’re worried please phone your hospital and get checked out, it’s not worth sitting there worrying all day.I feel like my paranoia has gone into overdrive.

Honestly I’ve had so many days like this, it’s all been fine when I’ve got checked out, but in hindsight I know I should have just gone to hospital straight away instead of making myself stressed.
