Feeling a lil stress

Hi all, my 2nd born is almost 7 months. and today i found out faint positive lines on the preg test. i missed my period this mth thinking my u stable hormones since i have pcos. my 1st born is 7 yrs old & when i had my 2nd born, i was so happy. when born, somehow i did fall into post natal depression cos of the age gap & traumatic labour. my husb and i used condom since gynae do not recommend pill or iud due to my weight and some medical condition. i also try to check on my ovulation days but due to hormones it can be all over. i havent tell my husband about the test yet. i feel like crying cos the age gap is near. any mummies face this? my husband works 24hrs then 2 days off so usually when he works, im on my own. i feel so stress up

One of my girlfriends recently experienced the same issue as well. Her first born is about 5-6 months old and she’s currently 4 weeks pregnant with her second one. She also expressed that she’s struggling with her firstborn and learning about her pregnancy, she’s also falling into postnatal depression. What gets her through this is lots of love and support from her husband and family members. So I suggest breaking the news gently, express how you feel and address your concerns. Find your support group! You’re a goddess by your own rights - find your calm and stay strong, you can do this! 🌻

Spare Breast Pump

Hi all. I bought Be Free pumps. I'm 90% EP mum and latch as and when I can. My baby is 2 wks old. i supplement FM but most of the time he drinks my EBM. My yield is around 70-120ml per pump. I try to pump 3-4 hrly. I just feel that Be Free pumps doesnt really clear my breasts. I was thinking to get a spare pump that is portable so I can use it alternately with my Be Free. should i get Real Bubee (heard its lifespan not that long cos cheap), Spectra 9+ or other pumps that u ladies can recommend me? And if possible, doesnt use up too much battery so i dont need to keep charging. thank youuuu

Delay shower for baby

Hi there all. I read up that it is recommended to delay showering of our newborn baby for at least 24hrs. Do the Spore hospitals allow that? Has any mummies requested for that? If yes, I was thinking to include that in my birth plan. TIA

Hi! I am at my 11 wks. This is my 3rd pregnancy. the 2nd miscarriage. From my prev pregnancy I didn't experience this. Early morning or late night my tummy will be growling. Very uncomfy. Like really hungry. If let say early morning I woke up to pray at 6am, I ignore the hunger and slept back after praying, next I wake up will feel super hungry but very nauseous. Sometimes I'm just too tired to go to the kitchen to get some food to eat especially at night cos I would need to brush my teeth again. Anyone experience this? I know it may be normal but what are your tips? I don't rmbr experiencing this with my 2 prev pregnancy. Thank you!

If I'm hungry I will just eat

4 weeks Pregnant

Hi all. It's me again. Any mummies experienced bleeding (not alot) accompanied but slight cramps & lasted for 3 days but off & on then when urine there are blood but abit only on & off also? I'm at 4 weeks. Went NUH on 26th & HCG still low based on my test kit too (faint lines), gynae cannot conclude anything as still early. I'm getting my blood test again next week to see if any progress on the HCG level. Meanwhile, I tested again yesterday & the lines darkened & no more bleeding since yesterday. I wonder if any mummies experienced it & it is normal. I even googled abt Ectopic Pregnancy. Hopefully it isn't as I do not have any intense crampings. Thank you mummies.

Best to consult your gynae again soon, take care!

Can you help see if there are 2 lines ?

Hi all. I don't know if my eyes are playing trick on me but do u see 2 lines or 1? the T line is faint. I was waiting for my menses then yesterday morning (night b4 i had intercourse) when i pee there are strains of blood. Then i thought it was my menses. So I wore a pad but i only had spots not whole lot of blood. Then at night nothing till today morning. Before this, I had all the pregnancy symptoms which i thought could also be my menses coming. I don't know why but I just decide to test it this morning & saw this. Can it be double line if i test during menses? or could it be the blood is spotting? Thanks all

Can you help see if there are 2 lines ?

This is another i took earlier on.

Hi anyone experienced no heartbeat at 10 weeks? What is your next move?

VIP Member

This means the genetic material in the chromosomes wasn't right for a baby to develop. In a missed miscarriage, either the embryo doesn't develop, or it doesn't get very far and the heartbeat stops. Occasionally it happens beyond the first few weeks, perhaps at eight weeks or 10 weeks, or even further on.
