I am 8 weeks and 1 day today to xxx

I really want an early scan, but my husband said to wait and was sure everything would be okay. Just nice to put your mind at rest though, I'm 9 weeks and 2 days xx

I had an early one at 5 weeks due to bleeding and then another when I was 7 weeks but I was so sure there wasn't a baby in there and when she showed me my baby it was the most beautiful thing ever xxx

How do you get an early scan through NHS?

I just rang pregnancy unit near me and told them I had bleeding and pains xx

@Shauna that's what I'm feeling like. Like there is no baby

Wow I’m 8weeks and 2 days congratulations hun x

I would ring then and see what they say lovely xx

thank you so much xx

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!

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.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

C section trauma ?

Is it a thing to be traumatised by a c section delivery? I’m 4 weeks pp after having an emergency c section. I won’t go into the ins and outs to what got me there 😂
Nothing went wrong in the surgery at all, it was just incredibly intense, overwhelming and scary, but luckily my baby was delivered safe!
However I’m finding my birth experience quite difficult to even think about and when I do, I feel a horrid gut wrenching feeling, my heart aches and I just uncontrollably cry! My body feels really alien to me, like it’s not my own and I just feel really let down.
