Waters Broke

My waters broke at 10pm and I lost my mucus plug, I’m only 33 + 1 so looking like this might be an October baby now 😅 still not dilated so I’m being kept in the hospital for a few days, I’ve had steroid injections and antibiotics for baby… will baby arrive?!

Also no one tells you how much water you lose it is CONSTANT! Still going after hours and hours

Keep us posted ❤️ I am sure the hospital will take care of you 🙏🏼🙏🏼

All the best ❤️ keep us posted. Good luck 🤞

This happened to me last week and my beautiful baby boy was born a few hours later at 31 weeks! Read my posts for my experience, hope it helps. Mine was very quick though! X

Thank you everyone!

Still no baby, they think I’ve got an infection so I’m on antibiotics and magnesium and steroids for baby plus painkillers. Contractions were so bad last night they thought it would be imminent labour but my cervix is still closed 😭 they were booking me for a c section today but then changed their minds as I’m not 34 - 37 weeks.

I’ve got high white blood cells so being kept in another night and more bloods tomorrow… I can’t go through all of this again I need him here now 😭🩵

Thoughts are with you! Hoping everything will be okay ❤️

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

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.

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.

Baby Movements

Hello, I’m a FTM currently 18W5D pregnant. I’ve been getting this tugging feeling in my stomach after I eat, it’s uncomfortable but not painful. I don’t know whether that’s the baby moving or round ligaments pain.

I’ve also been getting round ligament pain which is either a sharp stabbing pain or a stretching sensation. These happens whether or not I’ve eaten while the tugging feeling is only after I’ve eaten.

So, could the tugging feeling be the baby or something else.

Anyone getting a private scan at exactly 6weeks

I just wanna know my baby is actually there after losing my first at 5w
