40 weeks 3 days

Would this be considered not consistent enough? I did go to the hospital thing morning based off of the 5-1-1 rule but was sent home due to only being about 2.5 cm. Ever since then… the contractions have been severe enough to where it stops me in my tracks, sometimes I can’t breathe, and sometimes I will actually cry. That last cervix check kind of scarred me, and I also feel like it has contributed to the pain I’m feeling. I’ve been cramping bad, so in between contractions I feel like I can’t relax. Not sure if it’s worth going to the hospital again, or if I’m just being a baby.

This is the app I have and it tells me when to go to the hospital or when to give them a call. Did it give you any sort of notification like that?

Oh yes. It tells me to go to the hospital. Which happened yesterday morning, then I got sent home. And this morning as well😭

I figured!! Maybe just give them a call before heading back in!

This is consistent enough mine were coming like this and i went to the hospital and was 5cm dilated cervix was at 90%

I was unsure and waited until they became 2-3 min apart. I had a few false alarms and got sent home before too. But at 2-3 min and everything else you’re saying, for me I was in labor and 5 cm when I got there.

I’m in the same boat, it’s so frustrating I’m 40 weeks and 2 days and they keep sending me home . Idk what to do anymore to start my labor

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?

32 weeks

32 week growth scan and clinic appointment. Did anything unusual happen? Ive heard a few people saying 32 weeks was when they had a induction date

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?

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow
