I got to 41 weeks and begged my midwife to induce me cause I was so fed up, uncomfortable and just over being pregnant 😂 she said if I made it to 42 weeks then they would have induced me. I went in at 41+4 to be induced and had my daughter at 42+1 via emergency c-section.

Honestly Joanne this baby isn’t going anywhere like haven’t lost my plug in no pain at all nothing😂I’m fed up!! X

I was induced at 41 weeks and gave birth at 41+1. I was the same way! Baby wasn't going anywhere anytime soon. Labor lasted 17 hours after they broke my water and went pretty smoothly!

I made it to 42 weeks and still no sign of baby but then got induced and ended up having an emergency c section! Think they will only leave you 2 weeks over x

I got my induction day at 42 weeks with baby no1 and at 41 weeks due to GBS with my 2nd

You can ask for sweeps from 40 weeks I had those x

I’m hopefully getting induced on Saturday at 40+3. I had a sweep with my midwife on Tuesday and she booked my induction for me then just in case nothing has happened before then. It doesn’t seem like baby is going to make an appearance of his own accord just yet even though I’ve been getting cramps and can barely walk some days!

I’m 40 weeks + 4 I’ve been told it’s 10 days past over due date x

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

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.
