40 weeks tomorrow.. 2nd time mom

40 weeks tomorrow and starting having contractions that eventually led to a bloody show in the middle of the night last night, since then I have had random spotting when using the bathroom. However, ever time I use the bathroom, walk the stairs or baby moves along I'm having pain that is stopping in my tracks. Anyone ever experience anything like this?

No... but this late in pregnancy, plus some blood, i say go to hospital and see what they say! Maybe baby time!

I’m 40 weeks tomorrow with second baby too! Hope we meet our babies very soon!

during the night I lost some of my mucus plug and had contractions again but nothing else.. As a 2nd time mom I don't plan on going in until I know I'm consistently having contractions, I don't want to play the go in and come home game.

@Faith
Oh i feel you on that lol im almost 38 weeks and contractions are all over, painful and mucous plug been dropping. This aint my first, but is my last! Once things get regular i know its time to go in.

Idk how youve made it to 40w without going crazy! Id be finding every excuse to get them to induce my labor at this point lol

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

2nd pregnancy after c section

I’m not planning on getting pregnant anytime soon but in the future possibly. I just wanted to know how is pregnancy after c section like my fear is having to go through another emergency operation or even putting strain on my incision during pregnancy

Baby Movements

Hello, I’m a FTM currently 18W5D pregnant. I’ve been getting this tugging feeling in my stomach after I eat, it’s uncomfortable but not painful. I don’t know whether that’s the baby moving or round ligaments pain.

I’ve also been getting round ligament pain which is either a sharp stabbing pain or a stretching sensation. These happens whether or not I’ve eaten while the tugging feeling is only after I’ve eaten.

So, could the tugging feeling be the baby or something else.
