Two days pp

Had my baby two days ago, I’ve just had my first poo since, no straining natural bowel movement 😂 however when I wiped there was like a stringy bit of fresh blood, is this normal? My stitches really hurt since and I’m not 100% sure if the blood was from my vagina or my bum. My fresh pad has like my normal blood on it doesn’t seem like excessive bleeding. Just not sure if this is normal or triage worthy call.

Firstly, Congratulations 🎊

It sounds like it might be from your vagina if it's stringy but I'd keep a close eye on it and see if it happens again. Defo something to notify triage about if it's rectal.

thank you 💜 I feel like it probably is from my vagina but I’m worried about every little thing as it’s just so uncomfortable 🥴 x

It's a complete rollercoaster for the first 6 months. Always trust your gut though. If you think something is wrong, speak up. And enjoy every moment x

Could be hemorrhoids, could be from your vagina. Definitely have them have a look, or have your partner look.

Just want to sleep again! 🫩

I wake up around 8.30am, have some cereal, meditate/pray for a bit, make a cuppa and then by 10am I’m tired again and could easily nap. My iron levels have been checked and were fine. Is it just me or is anyone else feeling like this? I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant 👀

Possible blood clot on the lung /VQ scan

Has anyone had a VQ scan for possible blood clots. As I need to have to have one and concerned due to the radiation and possible risk of baby having childhood cancer.

Baby girl names

Love pretty shorter names such as Millie, Gracie, Lottie. My husband only likes Millie and I’m struggling to find anything else he likes! However I’m not 100% on Millie.

Love Lilly, Maisie, Isabelle, Tilly but sadly can’t use these sadly.

We have a little boy called Oliver (Ollie).

Middle name will be Rae.

Any ideas?🙈

Review at 36 weeks

Has anyone had An anesthesia review at 36 weeks?
What is this for as I never had this with my first?
I am being scanned every 3 weeks as my first was small and now my second is measuring small.

Princess birthday party

My child will be turning 5 over the summer and they’ve asked for a princess party but keep changing their mind on which princess they’d like to most their party so have said I can choose 🙈 which princess would your child have chosen at a similar age or if you’ve been to a few princess parties which one was best?

Anyone else still feeling really good

If I hadn’t of had a scan I wouldn’t believe I was pregnant. I was tired with sore boobs and this is still the case but no where near as much. I feel so good. I am incredibly bloated though but I can deal with that. My first pregnancy I suffered with dizziness really bad so this is a pleasant change.
