- By HannahWhat time of day do you ladies take your prenatal vitamins if you take them? I used to always take mine after breakfast, but a pharmacist told me to take them after dinner because 'they can make you a bit queasy'. So this morning I didn't take mine and did indeed feel better. In recent weeks, I woul50
- By Stacey559sWith my 1st I thought I’d finish at 38 weeks, had baby 37 weeks. I’m older this time around (and feel this pregnancy has been a bit harder). I’m thinking of finishing maybe 35-36 weeks. Is this too early? Is it a waste of precious leave time?30

- By GeriatricmumgI had my 20 week scan the other day, and they picked up that bub has a slightly enlarged kidney, which may mean kidney reflux. They also picked up that I have a low-lying placenta. It's posterior and about 5mm from my cervix. Both things I was told should resolve by the time I have a follow up scan100

- By HannahAt about 15 weeks, I started feeling the second trimester kick in. My mood was good, I had energy, my skin cleared up, my nausea was gone. I saw my midwife then and she said that sometimes the nausea comes back after a couple of weeks. And that seems to be what has happened. Now, at almost 18 weeks,20
