1 week but I had another sweep 6 days after my first. Lost my plug the following evening after my first sweep. Now in early stages of labour xx

A few hours with my first. A week with my second 🫠

I had my first sweep on Tuesday, lost my plug Wednesday and still waiting, having to have another sweep Tuesday if she’s not come by then! Feel your pain haha x

4 days x

24 hours 🥲

About 6 days 🙏🤞

I had a sweep on the 9th and kept loosing bits days after. I’m due today and still no sign of baby or labour🙈🤣 but I guess it’s all different for each person xx

I’m 40+3, and I’ve had three failed sweeps, last one I had was on Thursday, and I’ve only ever lost brown discharge from all of them and it’ll stop a day after. But today I’ve lost my actual mucus plug which makes me think labour could be very close🤞🏼xx

2 days x

Ohh fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼🤞🏼 sounds positive! I’ve got another sweep on Monday so hoping it may be successful Xx

A week for me x

Just a few hours for me.. lost it before going to bed then waters broke 4:30am. First baby Think everyone is so different!

I lost mine on the Thursday night (40+5) around 10pm, my waters broke and started having contractions around 2:45pm on the Friday (40+6) 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?

20week scan!!

i had my 20week scan yesterday, everything looked okay on baby and we found out the gender!! it’s a girl 🩷🩷. but they said that my placenta is too close to my pelvis and they need to do extra scans to check on it? has anyone else been told this?

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

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
