Back to back varies so much, my sister had 8lb 4oz back to back baby with no pain relief at all, not even G&A! My experience with a back to back wasn't so great but I was just unlucky I think. I didn't have an epidural though. Can I just say as well, I know it's frustrating waiting to have...

A homebirth! That will be lovely, my first was supposed to be a homebirth but ended up with a C section :( hope it goes well. And I know going overdue is a pain but only 30% of babies come on or before the due date - 4 days ain't bad in the scheme of things. Plan loads of stuff for this week...

Wish it was my due date! Hope you have a lovely safe delivery before too long. The sugar cravings with breastfeeding scared me, it was worse than giving up smoking! I am worried about gestational diabetes this time so want to get diet under control to hopefully avoid or minimise that, and...

It could be that your face looks thin at your new weight - I have quite a thin face and tend to look a lot slimmer from the shoulders up than I really am! Why not have a chat with your SW consultant or the nurse at your GP's surgery and see what they think? They will have your health at heart...

Hello! Joined SW when my first baby was 6 weeks old, really struggled to lose anything while breastfeeding. Stopped at 9m and managed to get to my Club 10 weight, bobbling along at that for ages then found out I'm pregnant again with baby #2! Nearly 18 weeks now and put on somewhere between 4...

I am doing Slimming World and find that it's easy to stick to, apart from my sweet tooth tripping me up. Some days I just can't resist sugary things. Has anyone got any tips for getting rid of the cravings?

I'm a beauty junkie (you'd never know to look at me most days lol), have tried loads of different things over the years but these are all fantastic; Urban Decay 24/7 eye pencils - have them in loads of colours, they really are the best. Not the cheapest but really versatile and easy to use...

If your labours are quick I honestly wouldn't bother...as LauraLoo says above, if you keep doing deep breathing when the gas and air isn't in your mouth you'll go back to "normal" or something like it in between - I had nearly two full tanks of gas and air to myself and can still remember quite...

Hi there, I'm just about to start SW but am a veteran of WW and various others - you don't say how tall you are on your stats but you've lost loads and you aren't that heavy now, it could be that you're hitting your "set point"? I know that I will always struggle to get under 9st however...

Hello! Off to join my local SW class tomorrow morning, my baby girl is 6 weeks old now so can't put it off any longer... Didn't think I'd put much weight on (last weighed myself at 36 weeks, put on about30lb by then and had 8lb baby at 40 wks) but since I still weigh the same as I did at about...
