Pregnancy is such a mystery! First trimester seemed to be all about bloating, second trimester bloating has definitely got a lot better, but I feel like I’m getting more pressure in my belly above my belly button and in my lower pelvic area. Seems to be all throughout the day I could even be sitting and doing nothing and just feel pressure a tad bit of pain but not bad. The end of the day if I go for a walk, I’m not feeling very good in my belly lower pelvic area definitely has pain not extreme but enough where it’s not comfortable to go for a walk at night. Anybody else experienced this?

Seeing which is best for belly support.

TW: Loss

So I’m getting my cervix checked on a biweekly schedule starting now until week 23. I had a loss previously at 16 weeks. They’re not sure 100% if it was due to the seven fibroids pushing against my uterus and cervix which caused my water to break or if it was tied to a weak/short cervix in general. Because of this I’m getting checked a week earlier than what normal people would get checked for a cervical length I believe.

For those who had a cervical length of 2.71 cm around 14/15 weeks, did you end up having to go on progesterone suppositories or get a stitch done? Or did you end up being OK throughout the pregnancy without any intervention?

During my 12 week scan, I was told that I have an anterior placenta at the moment. Did anybody also have this and then ended up that the placenta moved or did it stay as an anterior?

Wondering because I like to be able to feel the baby move earlier than later and feeling bummed that I have an anterior placenta.

Just curious to see where people are getting nice maternity clothes that are not super expensive. I wish stores still carried maternity clothes. Much harder to figure out what size to order.
