Insomnia - 34+3

I have had insomnia for about 2 weeks now. Sometimes I don’t sleep at all and other times I will get 4 hours of sleep a day if I’m lucky. Any tips?

I had it consistently for two and a half weeks. I tried the tart cherry juice before bed trick, and it seemed to help a little. Basically drink a cup of it; you can add a plain seltzer w it to cut the tartness down some. I also tried to use my phone less in bed, and at least get up out of bed if I was having trouble sleeping over a long stretch of time. I’d sit in the kitchen and have a late night snack. It usually helped lull me back to sleep. I know insomnia isn’t easy though. Hope it gets better for you soon.

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
