Ill be going to the BRI. Looked at southmead but its quite a long and busy drive to get there for me. My friend gave birth there in nov and loved it. She said if you need a check up post birth for something specific (next day or so) then you can just go back, you dont need to be re-admitted, like you do at the BRI.Yep that’s me, are you too?

I believe I had this around 5 or 6 weeks yes. Truly thought I was dying in the middle of the night. I can’t tell you why it happens but I definitely had it too if that puts your mind at rest a bit.
thank you so much!
wondering if it could be from iron in prenatal - I'm very sensitive to supplements,
I didn’t like my supplements either so I just took a separate folic acid and a separate vitamin d tablet. That’s all you really need. Maybe look into getting those? Just double check required daily amounts
Hiw long did you ladies take folic acid and vit d? Im still finishing off my pills (combined folic and vit d) . My midwife recommended to take vit d for the whole pregnancy.
Yes I had this around 6 weeks, really painful trapped wind. I went to the pharmacy and rennie deflatine tablets are safe to take during pregnancy. They helped me a lot. Hope you feel better soon x
Yeah I'm in in-between bath and BristolSouth glos im guessing, closer to southmead?
Lush! Heyy fellow west country gal
chose Bath for my hospital as it's a tiny bit closer and cba with rush hour Bristol traffic especially round temple meads if I go into labour 
where are all you ladies going??I did the same thing - they’re much smaller to stomach for a start and I know a few people who warned me and said they didn’t get on with Pregnacare. I tried their preconception vitamins and they upset my tummy so didn’t bother with the pregnancy ones just individual folic acid and vitamin D.I didn’t like my supplements either so I just took a separate folic acid and a separate vitamin d tablet.

Not sure why I picked this one to quote from I'm banes xxYeah I'm in in-between bath and Bristol
Ahh me too!! I’m giving birth at SouthmeadSouth glos im guessing, closer to southmead?

Hi guys, I found out I was pregnant on Saturday morning and was super thrilled! However I started spotting some light pink on Sunday / and a tiny bit yesterday (both only when I wiped) I didn’t need a pad or anything. There wasn’t a lot but I am still concerned as I’ve had 5 positive tests so far across the weekend.
I went to the hospital yesterday to check if all was okay & also did a urine sample. The sample came back negative & now I’m so confused because I’ve had various positive tests at home. The nurse said it could be due to me passing urine all day & it being super diluted, however I’m unsure how it would be completely negative as I thought my home tests were strong! Are the hospital tests just not very sensitive or could my urine be that diluted it wouldn’t pick it up?
has anybody experienced having positive tests at home then negative at the hospital/ doctors? It’s taken so long to get here & I am really worrying now

@Hellofromtheotherside I’ve heard good things about RUH! It’s a little too far for me and likewise Bris traffic would probably be a nightmare for St Michael’s/BRI so southmead is easier for my side of town.
@CrimeJunkie
Me too! When are you due?
@CrimeJunkie
Me too! When are you due?My midwife has told me to take folic acid and vit d all the way through so I'm still going now! X
I got told just to take it all the way through, so thats what I've been doing too
I’m still taking the pregnancies plus although it’s costing me a small fortune x
This ones for the ladies with constipation and painful trapped wind. I think I’ve sorted myself out in the past couple of weeks by eating a yoghurt with live bacteria every other day. I’ve been having Yeo Valley strawberry ones (cause no bits) and I truly believe they’ve made all the difference. I no longer have trapped wind at all and I do a good poop every day (I’m so sorry). Before eating these I was so blocked up and painful and now I’m not at all. Might be worth a try if you’ve also been struggling with this!
30+3 and my left hand has went completely numb is that normal?
Whole pregnancy
You can get just a supermarkets own brand for way cheaper and has exactly the same in it
