Does a private forum need to be requested? Sorry, not sure how it works. I have spent the last week thinking about my LMC choices. For my first pregnancy, I didn't really know what to do. My hubby's colleagues wives all used the same OB with great things to say so we followed suit. I booked him this time but still felt restless. Found an amazing midwife yesterday who I am most likely going to be under the care of although she doesn't service my suburb so I either need a community midwife in my area or go to her for post-partum visits. Feeling really good about my choice and excited, especially as I hope to attempt a VBAC for this birth! Now to make the awkward cancellation call at my OB's practice on Monday I also so far have little to no symptoms. I had more leading up to my AF being due but like Victoria mentioned, week 6 and onwards generally brings a bit more change :) ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Glad you've made a decision and are happy with it nov_12, so hard to decide right?! I have had to find a new midwife and we have moved since my last baby, gutting as my midwife has helped me through my highs and lows, but think I've found one I like, I'll have to see the obs at the hospital throughout pregnancy anyway, so I think midwife will just support me alongside that. |

Hi everyone! I'm Haley, I found out I was pregnant 2 weeks ago. I'm due April 4th! I've just created a FB group called April 2016 Babies (sorry couldn't see if one had been created yet!) Feel free to join or send me your email and I can add you to the group x I look forward to meeting you all :) |

Mrs S it is really hard but I am following my gut instinct and I feel so calm and excited about what I have chosen to do. I have complete faith in our healthcare system and know the hospital OBs will be great should I need to go down that route. Glad you have also found one you like! It is hard to move on from a good and sure thing :) Welcome Miss Haley, will see if I can find the group. Is it private? ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

That's so exciting mrs s and nov-12-bub that you have found midwives that you feel happy with. I'm a little nervous finding one still... Not sure if it is still too early! Misshaley22 - is that a private forum on fb? I don't want anything coming up on my newsfeed 😳 |

I have my first midwife appointment on Wednesday. I'm quite excited about it. She is the backup midwife I had with my son. Symptoms wise not much to write home about. Just the usual tiredness, a bit of nausea but I haven't noticed them much the last couple of days but I do have a cold. I'll go look for the group now ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

| Hi ladies I totally feel for you ladies who have miscarried and are anxiously waiting out this early period. I had 3 miscarriages before I had my daughter and I'm now back in that anxious on edge time again. Am hoping my body knows what it's doing now and we have smooth sailing but it's really hard not to get excited and start thinking ahead. Have booked doc app for this week so hoping I may be able to have dating scan or hormone blood test to see how things are going. |

 Hi ladies = sorry i dropped the ball on creating this group - this is supposed to be the starting post ;) ha ha! Hope youre all feeling well! Welcome to the Due in April 2016 thread and CONGRATULATIONS on your pregnancy! What an exciting and amazing journey you are now on! Welcome also to the OHbaby! community :) Here you will get to make some fantastic friends, learn from others experiences, share a tear and a giggle with each other. We have two Due in Threads created each month: 1. PUBLIC: The public one is great for general chat and banter 2. PRIVATE: The private thread is password protected and is great for you to share photo's of baby bumps, make sure noone can read about it before you let the ‘cat out of the bag’, and generally talk about stuff you don’t want public reading ☺ If you want to join the private group (at the bottom of the forum home page) then the first peson in the gropu can Private message me or skiltz and then after that, that person is a ‘password keeper’ who do a little shout out on the public page saying PM me if you want the password from then on anyone who wants the password or to be a password keeper can do a shout out saying they are free to be pm’d also for the group’s password. If you want one of those fancy pregnancy tickers along the bottom of your post, you can get one here: http://lilypie.com/Maternity_and_Pregnancy.php Please do sign up to the weekly pregnancy emails - you can do that by adding your pregnancy in your profile (you can also add your scan pictures when you have one and bubs will be there every time you login to the website). We recommend signing up the other half as well so they know what you're going through and how baby is growing too :) COMMUNITY AND SUPPORT We have an amazing community of mums and mums-to-be that has been going since 2001. You are now part of a special group of mums and mums-to-be. The OHbaby! forums have been the envy of many a forum, that has created friendships that last a lifetime. Have supported some mums through post natal depression and are rich with conversation from past and present mums who talk about everything! Kids health, chicken pox relief, reflux relief, morning sickness relief, relationships – you name it! We ask that where possible if you meet here you keep your community and friendships here in the forums online, though we have seen many mums over the past decade become life long friends, and raise all their children together chatting online and catching up in person from time to time when they organise catch ups from around the country! Most importantly, we don’t control what you see on the forums. We don’t prioritise popular posts, the forums are simple and friendly, and no advertisers are allowed to post on the forums (we had side ads sometimes, they keep us going, but never posts in the forums) ☺ This is your space and your community of mums. What we offer here on the forums is very special as each mum from each due in thread, with older babies, with toddlers or more kids – are all here, interacting, reading, chatting and giving support and advice in a caring community ☺ Pretty special! So! We wish you a great pregnancy, no awful sickness all smooth sailing and lovely sleep-through-the-night babies and great feeders! If that doesn’t exactly happen, feel free to come here and chat about it with other mums and mums-to-be and check out the sites awesome pages of stories, expert advice and more! This site is growing every day with new content so be sure to check-it out ☺ Wishing you THE VERY BEST PREGNANCY!!! From the team at OHbaby! |
