I lost my mucus plug the day that I went into labor which was 38w2d if I remember correctly

Dilating is a bit harder to answer because you can dilate without realising. I was already at 4cm dilated when I went for a stretch and sweep. My belly dropped around 33-35wks with my two. And I had my bloody shows after I had my sweeps

I started dilating at 34 weeks and lost my mucus plug right after 35 weeks and my belly dropped around the same time I’m now 36 weeks + 3 days still only a centimeter dilated but my drs say he could come at any point but definitely don’t think i will be making it to my due date they also said I’m having a mix between fake contractions and real contractions which i can definitely tell the difference but said since I’m 36 weeks they don’t give anything to stop the contractions so I’ve just been dying and at this point I want this little boy out of me😂😂😂

Im 37 weeks and at 36 weeks and 2 days I became 1 cm dilated. Haven’t lost mucus plug yet

I didn’t drop and lost my mucus plug two days before birth. Waters went at 3am, I got to the hospital and was already 10cm (after being there earlier to confirm waters were broken) and baby came at 16:55. I was 39+1

Still haven’t at 37 weeks+5

My belly didn’t drop until I was in labour and I also didn’t loose my mucus plug until then either

Didn’t drop, didn’t loose plug and didn’t realise I’d dialated x every bodies different hun 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?

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

Invited to a chuckie cheese party but I don't have money and don't want to tell my daughter that's why we can't go. Does anyone know how their parties work?

I'm not sure how chuckie cheese parties are. If they give you money to play or not if you're in the party. And then I'm wondering if it's an actual birthday party or if they're just going to chuckie cheese. Some guy in my building told me a couple weeks ago that his son's birthday is today and he's thinking of doing chuckie cheese. They sent an invite but I feel so insecure not being able to afford anything. Like if they don't have food for example. Idk what to do.

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!

Owlet

Anyone else’s owlet driving them mad?? It goes off 5/6 times night saying it can’t get a reading and needs a snug fit. My baby is 8 months old so moves a lot. It is driving me insane and I keep end up taking it off! Anyone had similar issues?
