Babies born at 31 weeks and 3 days

Hi, had the biggest shock yesterday when I started having contractions at 31weeks 3days and our baby boys were born via emergnecy csection. They are soo tiny and are being supported in the special baby care unit. Feeling very overwhelmed at the moment. I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience that they can share ♥️

Awe I can imagine that would be so hard! I’m 21 weeks now with boy girl twins, it’s so different having a multiples pregnancy, it’s like we have to be ready for anything which has been scary for me. You’re so strong you and the babies 🫶🏻 Sending prayers and hugs and good vibes your way xoxo

I had a baby at 31 weeks & 6 days so I know the feeling 🥺 the nicu stay is tough but the feeling when babe(s) finally come(s) home is like nothing else.

My twins were born at 31+5 weeks via emergency c-section. Like yours, they were breathingon their own. In incubators and NiCU stay to feed and grow. NiCU was exactly 28 days and they came home with T1 at just over 2kg weight, and T1 just under but above 1.8kg

Congrats on your littles; they are gorgeous! X

I did! My boys were 32+1 day. 4.5 lbs and 3.4. The bigger twin aka twin A was in the nicu for a month. And two months for the other. It was tough I’m not gonna lie! But I encouraged myself that these nurses are actually helping to relief the pressure of watching them by ourselves

Thank you for sharing your experiences ♥️ It has been an emotional weekend but you're right, the nurses and midwives are doing an amazing job. It's just hard seeing the babies needing all that extra support and feeling helpless xx

Ultrasound Scan and BMI

Hi everyone, really upset today. Went for my dating scan and as far as I knew from the sonographer it was difficult to get a good pic of baby today because baby didn't want to get in a good position. Read my notes afterwards and it says difficult scan due to increased BMI. I have a BMI of 39 which I'm aware is high, but I feel so sad about it and now I'm worrying how this is going to be throughout the pregnancy. Any positive info about any of you lovely people having a healthy and safe birth with a high BMI would be really appreciated right now ♥️

Dampness at 31weeks

Has anyone experienced dampness amd wet patches in underwear? Has it been your water’s slowly going or fluids leaking? If it was how long before they completely went ect?

I did think it was discharge at first. But it has no texture or odour.. just a wet patch like if you pour water 💦

C-section numbness

6 months postpartum my OB has dismissed my concerns about the right above my C-section area being numb. It is so uncomfortable to lay on my stomach now, and certain moves or touches feels like the worst nerve pain in life. Majority of my friends had a vaginal birth so relating to anyone isn't real, and it appears to have mixed feedback on Google 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️
