i’ve had multiple sweeps all done nothing 🥲 my induction will be booked in tomorrow at my 41 week app but i’m willing to get it done as early as they will let me. cause im 2-3 cm i would just need my waters broken no prostaglandins if labour then started i wouldn’t need the drip and would be able to go onto birth centre still so im just hoping if they induce me it will all just be quick and simple 😭
good luck with your induction i hope all goes smoothly for you 🤍

did anything happen after the sweep? ive been 2/3cm dilated for 2 weeks now with multiple sweeps done will have my final one tomorrow x

oh goodness how come it’s taken them so long? let me know how it goes as i would be in the same position to be induced as already 2/3cm. hope all goes well for you 🤞🏼

hopefully the sickness is a sign of something happening and will all start up before tomorrow!

so i’ve had 5 to try and get things moving. the first two were completely fine maybe a little uncomfortable. the third one was tender as my cervix was behind baby’s head then the next two were fine again! i had very mild cramps after but wasn’t sore x

Friends wedding abroad

Hi all. I know this is FTM... But really need advice. I am currently pregnant with baby #2. Only 8 weeks. I didn't want to tell anyone yet, my partner and boss knows (needed for risk assessment reasons annoyingly). My friend is getting married in a remote part of Spain in ~3 months. I've already had a few minor complications, pain, bleeding, vanishing twin... I got preeclampsia last pregnancy and a terrible birth.
I am pretty sure I don't feel comfortable flying and then travelling out to a remote part of Spain during pregnancy. It will just be me and my toddler. I know it's overcautious but I just don't feel comfortable. I'm not even sure if I am going to be classified as high risk pregnancy or not.
How do I handle this? I need to tell her ASAP, but I didn't really want to tell anyone yet as doc told me miscarriage risk is a bit increased with vanishing twin. Any ideas?

Anxious/depressed

My first pregnancy symptom was my anxiety out of nowhere. I feel like I'm a bundle of nerves and just so scared of everything. Is anyone else feeling similar? How are you managing? Are we contributing it to hormones?

Sneak Peek Test

I did the sneak peek test at 15 weeks pregnant, and the results just came back girl! Has anyone ever taken the test, gotten girl, and it been wrong?
