Sneezing pains

Does it hurt for anyone else when they sneeze? I'm not sure if it's that my organs have moved upwards that it hurts my diaprahm to sneeze. I seem to get an instead short pain around my diaprahm when I sneeze lately 🥲

YES! I have absolutely no reasoning why but I do get pain! And then I feel like I’ve strained where the pain is for 30mins to sometimes hours! I would love explanation if someone has more knowledge why.🤣

Oh no! Luckily for me the pain only last for maybe 20 seconds after 🥲 but boy does it hurt!
I've asked my nurse friend, she agrees it's probably because our diaprahm doesn't have much space now to contract when we sneeze 😅 she is double checking with her sister is a midwife

Yes!! Feels like my non existent abs move up when I sneeze and hurts for a few secs 🤣

It’s probably round ligament pain that causes it to hurt. I find if I bend over a bit and hold my tummy when I sneeze or cough it doesn’t hurt x

Yeah I get this and sometimes when I cough. Asked my midwife and she said as long as the pain goes away fairly quickly after like a few mins it’s totally fine and just muscle pain

My friends (midwife) sister said it's pretty common and that belly bands can help, but I just try to control my chest when I sneeze. A bit worried that hay-fever season will be starting soon 🥹

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

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

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)

I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol

What are your symptoms?

Planned c section

Has anyone had a planned c section and been home the same day?
