Also haven’t worn jeans since about then. I miss them 😭😭 I dont feel like maternity jeans will fit as they have to be very precise to your bump size and I also don’t like maternity trousers that go under your bump (I don’t get how they stay up 😂😂) so I’ve been in leggings and wide legged trousers for months
I bought maternity ones but they’re awkward! Feel like they push my belly out further and create a bump that isn’t quite there yet. Just be glad when autumn comes and I can be in my jumpers and leggings!

Being pregnant in winter was good for bloating etc, jumper and leggings until around 20 weeks when I moved into maternity stuff! I do find maternity trousers make me look more pregnant if they’re over the bump !

Does anyone know much about the Amazon baby wishlist? Is the discount you get on items from your list a one-time only thing, or can you make multiple purchases over time, using the discount on every occasion?

Is that the 15% discount thing? I think it’s only a one time thing, but I haven’t used it yet.
 
Has anybody else had this new strain of Covid? Just tested positive today and not feeling too bad yet but so scared as apparently it’s most dangerous to have in the third trimester and the new strain is supposedly really nasty 🙁

Ladies. Any nappy bag recommendations? 💕

We bought this one because we had a John Lewis voucher to use. I wanted a leather type one since it’ll be winter and I imagine a material one would get wet. I haven’t used it yet obviously but it seems pretty good with loads of seperate pockets, bottle warmer etc. I had it on my list for ages then it sold out but I checked the stock in store and managed to get one.

 
Guess who fainted today 🙋‍♀️
Never had this in previous pregnancies, and super worried it will happen again without warning like it did.

I am still keeping everything crossed for a lovely pregnancy, but the endless sickness, the low lying placenta, low iron, the bleeding, the back pain…my body definitely has other ideas. And now we are adding fainting to the mix 🥲

Edit, I am howling I just read it back as farting and had to check id actually typed FAINTING.

I’ve got one off of Amazon for about £30. I don’t want an expensive one as I’ve seen how much gets slung in it. I’ve noticed loads of people have similar and there’s loads of similar ones on there

Quoting myself as I've now found out you can use it unlimited times on orders within the eligible timeframe 🙌🏻

Items have to be “dispatched from” and “sold by” Amazon. I got a bit carried away thinking it was pretty much across the board. There’s still plenty eligible but just check for that.

Hope you’re feeling better soon and it’s not too rough for you ☹

So many questions sorry
Does anybody recommend a birth ball and when to start? I’ll be 21 weeks and getting some hip pain. I work in an office and I also do lashes on an evening so struggling a bit already!
I got a birth ball in my second trimester and have found it helpful especially with my pelvic girdle pain. Do you work from home at all? I use it to break up periods of sitting at my desk and do my pelvic floor exercises while sitting on it. Good for other exercises too like pelvic tilts and hip circles. I don’t find it that comfortable to lean forwards over it so not sure how much I’ll use it during labour itself but I’m glad I got one.

I’ve got this one too! Can also confirm it’s fab
We got this one last week too after struggling to fit all the rapid cools everything in the changing bag that came with our travel system. It’s got so many compartments and pockets etc, it’s great. We’ve got like a nappy compartment, a feeding compartment, spare clothes/bibs/muslins compartment so everything is so organised

I’m honestly so tired at the moment and sleeping loads at night (other than regularly turning over) AND napping in the day. I fear the sleep deprivation when this baby comes is going to be an absolute shock for me..

You are so lucky, I feel I haven’t had more than two hours sleep in a row in months. I’m not tired to be honest and that need to nap is gone but I was thinking am I now prepared for the sleeplessness nights that are nearly here and also when I am ever going to get a full nights sleep again… mad the things we think. My partner is going away this weekend and I was thinking this will be the last weekend for a long long time that I’ll ever be on my own.. can’t believe how close it is joe until Baby T is here.. 😁
