Tightening , nausea and barely can walk

Hi mummies, is it normal to feel tummy tightening every 10 minutes at 31 weeks? I'm not sure if it's Braxton Hicks. My tummy gets hard and then relaxes, and it's been happening quite regularly. Did anyone experience this around 31 weeks? Should I monitor it at home or get checked? Thanks in advance 🙏🏻

At 31 weeks, Braxton Hicks can definitely happen, but they're usually irregular and often settle with rest, changing positions, or drinking water. If your tummy is tightening every 10 minutes, especially if it's happening regularly, it's worth getting checked rather than just monitoring at home. You also mentioned nausea and barely being able to walk. Those symptoms, together with frequent tightenings, could be a sign that you need an assessment to rule out preterm labour or other pregnancy complications. It's always better to be checked and be told everything is okay than to wait too long. In the meantime, try to rest, stay hydrated, and pay attention to baby's movements. If the tightenings become more painful, your waters break, you have bleeding, or you notice reduced foetal movements, head to the hospital or contact your maternity unit straight away. Hope everything turns out to be just a false alarm, mama ❤️

Type 2 diabetes and experienced miscarriage once also got pregnant again 4 months later

Since finding out I’m pregnant again, I haven’t felt as excited as I did before. This is my third pregnancy, and I have a 5-year-old daughter. After my previous loss, I’ve been feeling very anxious and cautious. Even now at 12 weeks, I still worry about losing the baby. When I had spotting at 4 weeks, I rushed to the hospital, and whenever something doesn’t feel right, I end up going to A&E for reassurance.

Sending you a big hug ❤️ Pregnancy after a miscarriage can feel very different, and what you're describing is actually really common. Many moms find it hard to relax, even when everything is going well. It's also understandable to be extra cautious with your history of type 2 diabetes. At 12 weeks, the risk of miscarriage is generally much lower than it was in the first few weeks, although it's never completely zero. If something genuinely feels off, like heavy bleeding, severe pain, leaking fluid, or reduced fetal movements later in pregnancy, it's always okay to get checked. For the day-to-day worries though, hopefully your regular checkups can give you some reassurance. One day at a time, mama ❤️ Many pregnancies after a previous loss do go on to have healthy outcomes, and I hope this pregnancy is exactly that for you.

Hello Mommies! Im expecting my second baby and i want to fully breast feed my baby via EP or direct latching. Previously i gave up because lack of knowledge and support, but now i want to try again and not give up! So if you could please share with your trusted bestpump, both wired and the wearable (heard momcozy is good but which model should i go for) please please please help a mommy out!

Hey mama! I breastfed both my kids for about 6-7 months. My first journey was definitely harder than my second. Second time around you’re more chilled, you don’t stress as much. Stay hydrated and full, latch often and take hot showers. I wish before having my second one I knew about eufy baby portable breast pump, so check it out- it has heat technology. Other than that I do have some friends who love momcozy

Hl working in retail

Im currently 25 weeks pregnant im so tired i work retail n my back is aching.i alrdy finiah using all my mc and now im currently using upl. Im not sure if i can get HL this early yet. Im under the goverment route this time so im not quite sure how easy or hard it is to get HL. Being in retail my back sometimes hurt and affects my leg whuch will suddenly jam while i walk. For me its a fall risk to n my retail store have quite a lot or sharp ended tables near to each other so what do u mummies think....

I think you should seriously look at first changing your shoes to ensure that you are balancing your weight. When I was pregnant I used sketchers shoes, and recently tried this local brand called dmk Also pregnancy belt can really help to support the belly too. Financially can you afford to leave your job? That’s the main consideration imo

Hi, does anyone has experience with Dr Ada Ng? I’m trying to search for a private gynae at KKH and would like to know the experiences with her and also her stitching skills for v delivery. Thanks!

Hi just to share dr Ada ng has resigned from kkh and her last date is 31 July 2026. So if your edd is after, would advise you look for another gynae or you can follow her to private. I believe in her new practice she can deliver at mount Alvernia and TMC

Hi, Mommy! I think it’s normal since the older your pregnancy gets and bigger belly, your back will be impacted. For better advice, I’ll say to talk to your dr. Hopefully everything’s alrite!

Hi mommy ask lang Po if sinu naka experience Ng spotting 10weeks pregnant Po Ako im scared thank yoo

##askmommies #Needadvice #Sharingdong_Bund

Hi mommy! Don’t panic, spotting at 10 weeks is actually pretty common. Could be from implantation, cervical irritation, or just increased blood flow down there. A lot of mommies experience it and go on to have perfectly healthy pregnancies. But please do let your OB know asap so they can check — they might do an ultrasound just to make sure everything’s okay. Praying for you and baby!

Hello, is it not bad to drink Quatrovol and Calciumade at the same time? There are times when I forget to drink Quatrovol at the exact time, so I'll try taking it with Calciumade. Doesn't it have any bad side effects on the baby?

Hi! Best not to take them at the same time actually. Calciumade (calcium) can block the iron absorption from Quatrovol, so you won’t get the full benefit. Try to space them at least 2 hours apart. No harm to baby though, just less effective for you! Not medical advice, please check with your doctor if unsure.
