Pregnant again 4 months pp

So I found out I'm pregnant again 4 months pp, literally dreading it as my first pregnancy I had a lot of anxiety ans suffered really bad depression at the end of my pregnancy. This time I'm hoping it will be different especially because I have my LO to look after. I had an elective c-section with my first due to pre-eclampsia and anxiety. I wanted to ask as any other ladies had c-section and opted for a second c-section? And how did it go?

I’m also pregnant again 4 month pp. I did suffer from anxiety for about a month during my first pregnancy. I also had a c-section due to a prior myomectomy surgery to remove fibroids. My doctor told me because I had a c-section with the first one, all my pregnancies will have to be via c-section. I was advice to wait at least 12 months to get pregnant again but oh well here I am 4 months later pregnant again. I pray this pregnancy will also be as smooth as the first one. Good luck mama. 🙏🏾

Awhh congrats mama! Literally was contemplating getting an abortion but I can't get myself to do it. So I'll just see it as a blessing, and even if I have to go through C-section again I guess it's meant to be. I'm sure we will just be fine x

hope you don't mind me asking but are tou not scared that you're pregnant again 4 months after a c section and your scar hasn't even healed internally?

just wondering why you felt a need to comment this? Are you in the same position or just felt like worrying her more? Thankfully looks like she didn't see your comment.

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Little girl turning herself sideways in next to me

My little girl tonight, has spun herself so she is lying sideways in her next to me, making me panic!

Is this normal at 4.5 months, do I just lie her back normally/vertically?

Ways to induce labor naturally

Hi All! FTM, Entering week 40 and no signs of labor, no dilation yet. Please share tips and ways to induce natural labor. Induction is already scheduled on week 41 but don’t want to go through that process.

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow
