Hello!

Just wanting to know what everybody went through during pregnancy, mainly their worst experiences?
I have extremely painful back aches to the point that I can no longer carry my LO (2) :(


Want more real mum questions sent to you?

  • Shingles, UTIs, HG, SPD, PUPPs, weight gain, and a chest infection.


  • I just got so enormous that I needed my husband to follow me around to get me out of chairs/ couches/ cars/ beds etc.


  • Wow some mummas have been through hell! Makes everyone’s ailments seem like nothing.

    I was lucky and only struggled with back pain, hip pain and morning sickness across all three pregnancies.


  • I wonder if the head of your baby is next to your spine as that was the reason I was experience very bad lower back pain . I also had very bad leg cramps in the evenings and used to have jabbing sensations in the middle of the night . I don’t think asking others about worst experiences will help you as it will worry you more. It is best to deal with it then and there and any issues talk to your doctor .


  • Worst but would have to be the morning sickness. Thank god it only lasted for the first 3-4 months. Next would be the heartburn, it was relentless no matter what I ate, how much I ate or when I ate


  • i had a miscarriage at the start of the second trimester


  • Mine is kind of like a long story of pregnancies
    1st pregnancy – Stillborn
    2nd pregnancy – Miscarriage
    3rd Pregnancy – Miscarriage
    4th Pregnancy – Miscarriage
    5th Pregnancy – Placenta Previa, bleeding throughout the pregnancy and complications also throughout the pregnancy
    6th Pregnancy – Short Cervix, Bed Rest from 26 weeks through to 36+4 weeks, early signs of labour, carring twins so feeling huge, back pain etc.
    7th Pregnancy – Miscarriage
    8th Pregnancy – Miscarriage
    9th pregnancy – early bleeding but good at the moment


  • I had two pregnancies. One ended up with a miscarriage. The first one was absolutely great. I didn’t suffer anything special, except some swollen feet towards the end.
    I’m sorry for your back pain!!
