3am Group Chat

The baby is awake, the house is quiet and your thoughts are loud. Pick yours and get a friend's reply as a chat card, to save or send to the friend who just had a baby.

3am Group Chat

Even at 3am, my girls reply.

Here is your chat card. Save it, or send it to the friend who just had a baby. She may be awake.

The card is made on your phone and goes nowhere until you send it. The link and the card we share show the game only, never your thought.

This game is only for a laugh. It has no advice in it and says nothing about how you are or how you should feel. It is educational, not medical advice. Everything runs on your phone. Your thought is not saved or sent anywhere.

When to see a doctor

This game is only for a laugh. Rest matters after birth. If something about your body or how you are coping worries you, tell your doctor or midwife. In Nigeria you can call MANI on 0809 111 6264.

How 3am Group Chat works

You will see ten 3am thoughts that new mums know well, from a full plate of rice to a baby who is finally asleep. Pick the one that sounds like you. A friend replies, and Wholesome Girlies draws the chat as a card on your phone.

  1. Pick the 3am thought that sounds like you.
  2. Read your friend's reply. Tap Another reply for a different one.
  3. Save the card, or send it to the friend who just had a baby.

Why 3am has its own group chat

Many new mums are awake feeding at 3am, because newborns feed around the clock. If your friend is one of them, send her a card.

Common questions

Who writes the replies?
Wholesome Girlies writes them in a friend's voice. They are jokes, so there are no tips and no advice in them.
Is my thought saved?
No. The card is drawn on your phone and goes nowhere until you save or send it. A shared link shows the game only, never your thought.
Can I send the card to a friend who just had a baby?
Yes. Tap Save or send the card, then pick WhatsApp or your gallery. A message from a friend at 3am can go a long way.
Is this medical advice?
No. It is a game for a laugh. For anything about your body or your baby, ask your midwife or doctor.
