Labour signs

Hey! Congratulations to the mamas here who already met baby! I wanted to ask if a few days before labor did you notice more trips to the bathroom to poop? I heard the body does this to get ready for labor but not sure. Ive been needing to go so often recently getting paranoid. 36 weeks today

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
