At what age do you start dropping your kid off?

We got our first classmate birthday party invite. When I was in school my parents would just drop me off and leave. But my kid is only 3 and in preschool so I'm not sure I'm comfortable doing that especially since she's higher support needs and has rescue medicine.
I know some venues you pay per person who attends including parents so I've no idea what to do. The party will be with 4 and 5yr olds (my kid is the only 3yr old in her class)

Emergency scan

Hi! I went to triage on Saturday night for reduced movement as I hadn’t felt baby all day. I was checked over with Doppler etc and sent on my way - midwife said everything was great.

I’ve just been called by the hospital that I’m booked in for an emergency scan and it’s just taken me by surprise. Has anyone else experienced this?

C section with a 2 Yr old

Please be honest how much of a struggle is this? I am worried, I'm currently 34 weeks but struggling to walk bc of my pelvis, it's already difficult having to run after her and with the tantrums etc
Any tips ??

Birth plan

Debating between natural birth vs C section.
Labour lengths, recovery times afterwards, control involved in a c section, pregnancy again after c sections.. give me your experiences/opinions. 😊
(Also, if the hospital was 1.5 hours away would that affect your decision)

Baby is nearly here and still haven’t decided on a name…
Please help!

Here are our options

Evelyn
Summer - baby will not be born in this season ( does it matter though? It’s a name not a time stamp)
Halle
Clodagh ( Irish Cloda)

Would love to hear what your favourite name is out of those

Early labour?

Im really unsure if what I’m having is the start of labour or just digestive pains? I’ve been getting sharp/crampy pains across my abdomen and back which come and go every 10/15 mins, not really typical period like pains yet but they are very noticeable. I feel like it’s been getting more painful since this morning, but at the same time I’m having diarrhoea and nausea. The only difference I’ve noticed is the pain is not going away after going to the toilet or position changes. I’m going to call triage but I thought to wait and see a few more hours. BTW I’m 37 weeks
