October 2023 Babies

I am in the early stages of labor of my second baby. Our first son is only 17 months old and we thought we could rely on my parents to watch him for a couple days while I give birth but it unfortunately is looking like that won't be an option. They're both disabled but capable of taking care of him for short periods. I don't want my husband to miss the birth but we don't have money to hire anyone else. This is adding so much stress and sadness to me. Does anyone have any suggestions or have any advice? Please no judgement or being mean. I am just looking for support.

Hey Mamas! I had a question- I am 34 weeks and while it’s not confirmed with an ultrasound, I am pretty sure based on kicks and wiggles that my baby is laying diagonal/sideways (transverse). Is this something I should be worried about now, or have any of you had experienced with baby getting into the right position after 34 weeks?

Hey so I’m currently 34 weeks and for the last 4 weeks baby has been measuring small. At my last OB appointment they requested me to book another ultrasound and see them in 2 weeks to talk about induction options. Has anyone been in a similar situation? What can I expect?

So I failed my 1hr glucose test by 3 points. My doctor is having me take the 3hr one tomorrow. He told me he isn’t worried because my levels were not that high. Was wondering if anyone else experienced this where they failed the first one and passed the second fine. Thank you 💕

I don't know what's worse, being pregnant in this heat or actually having the baby in this heat and trying everything in your powers to cool them down. What's worse, in your opinion?
