Breech

Hi all has anyone's baby Been engaged since 34 weeks but now just two days before I'm 38 weeks pregnant she's gone breech. I've been in so much pain for a while now and my midwife advised me to go to hospital so I did and now we've found out she's breech. I've been told I will get a call tomorrow to see if they can turn her for me and induce me. I'm quite nervous as I've never had this before x

Hey, I had the same experience. The tried a manoeuvre on me I can’t remember what it’s called but they try and move the baby from outside your tummy using a gel. I really hope it works for you. My girl was really stubborn and flipped back round again lol…

That's what they want to do with me but there looking at doing the turn and putting me into labour straight away to try and prevent little one turning back again but I'm quite nervous about the turn. Did it hurt x

It felt very uncomfortable, you just need to breathe your way through it. It took roughly half an hour.

I would say keep active and exercise it can help baby to engage

Thank you. I'm going to try and have a walk along the coastal path today and see if it helps. I'm just so nervous it won't work as my placenta is anteria but I'm not giving up hope it could help x

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

I have a feeling like I might get attacked from this but I’m going to say it anyways. incognito 🥸 GLP1s being mainstream for regular people who are NOT diabetic or morbidly obese is bad for so many reasons 💉💉💉

Side affects, long term dependency, supply shortages and costs, regaining the weight back as soon as you get off them.. all that ASIDE how do people not see just from a zoomed out perspective how crazy it is. I can’t imagine being someone facing food insecurity in an underdeveloped country and watching westerners give themselves daily jabs so they can lose weight while still eating a calorie surplus/ crappy foods. It’s giving hunger games when district 12 Katniss finds out at the party at the capital that people eat and then take a pill to make themselves sick so they can 🤮 and eat some more. These ads running ozempic everywhere are disgusting, and then getting amazing athletes like Serena Williams to push them talking bout “i’ve never been healthier” girl you were an OLYMPIC athlete wym??

Getting pregnant after c section

When did you get pregnant again after a c section? Our plan was always to have 2 under 2 but that is now out the window because I had an emergency section. I know they say 18 months and we will be sticking to it (as much as I don’t want to) but I’m curious how quickly you got pregnant after your section?

Movements

I’m 28 weeks tomorrow. Yesterday I had loads and loads of movements but today I have only felt small flutters and a couple of kicks throughout the day. I get so confused as some people say they don’t have a pattern but others say they do. We have a Doppler so used it this evening and could hear the heartbeat and then moving but does anyone else get quieter days of movement than others? I am seeing my midwife tomorrow so will check but just find myself getting anxious about it and don’t know when to get checked. I know they encourage it but last time as soon as I got to triage baby started moving loads!
