C section

I had a c section 6 days ago and currently when I go to sleep I wake up disoriented. Im not sure if its tiredness, the effects of medication and anesthesia or just postpartum issues. It feels so weird and awful that I am afraid to go to sleep. Anyone else felt weird that way?

I did for ages. I was taking dihydrocodeine which was making me feel like that, along with tiredness and low iron and blood levels x

I managed to have a really good sleep once I got home (like 6hrs in one stretch) and stopped the meds and it helped massively! Xx

I did too. Mixed with sleep deprivation. It was the dihydrocodeine which did it for me so I stopped it when I got home and alternated paracetamol and ibruprofen. I was hallucinating seeing ants walking in our hallway 🤣. Xxxx

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
