33 weeks count down

Anyone wake up and realize it's literally a few weeks to go before baby comes

I'm feeling a little unprepared lol I have a 3 year old and have been making sure she doesn't feel that this baby is more Important that I've kind of got a little behind on getting other bits ready 🙈

Yeah I feel exactly the same , I’ve got a 5 year old and a 8 year old ss and I feel so unprepared and tired all the time 😂

Ah yes I feel the same too I have a 2 year old and a 5 year old but this time I feel prepared as I started buying things and got my hospital bag ready early than usual as I know I will be busy with the kids. Making the most of my time with them as when new one arrives they will busy at school and I will be at home with the newborn most the time.

I feel the same, I also have a 3 year old and now I'm like 😬 I could give birth next month. So I'm full speed ahead with preps all of a sudden.

I'm 34 weeks and the realisation has only just hit me that I'll have an actual baby really soon 🤣🤣

I woke up and am super nervous about today as I’m 33+5 today with my second. I had my first 3 years ago and gave birth at 33+5 x

I’m 33 weeks tomorrow and haven’t really done anything yet! I’ve ordered a few bits for my hospital bag but we are having our bathroom done and a new carpet in our bedroom after that so I don’t feel like I can get the house ready etc. still got 3 weeks left at work too! It’ll be fine though, right?! We’ve done this before! 💪🤣

I feel the same I feel so bad because I'm just to tired to play some times and she wants me to sit on the floor with her and stuff and finding that really hard 🙈

tell me about it , I’m exhausted and especially doing school runs in the morning and having to walk to and from school cuz I don’t drive x my partner does but he’s at work at early in the morning.

we've not long had a new shower fitted and bits were moved for that and still putting bits away I've got a few bits for hospital but not much I got 5 weeks left of work luckily I only work 3 days though but one of my days I have with my little girl and one she goes nursery so only really have 1 day to do anything house work sorting ect 🙈

yeah I work 4 days a week but one is a weekend day, I have my little girl for 2 days in the week, so we only get 1 day a week together to do something nice as a family! So I feel like I’m never getting on top of anything! Just hoping baby doesn’t decide to come super early, seems like that’s happened to a lot of people I know recently 🙃

I'm the same I like to spend my time wisely with her rather than other stuff but then it all just piles up so annoying 😔

Confused Over Test Result

My heads pretty blagged about this atm. I’ve had spotting & some cramping but of the 2 tests I’d have expected the clear blue one to be most accurate. Any advice?

2nd baby

Anyone who’s had their 2nd baby, when did you go into labour compared to your first?

SPPH (secondary postpartum haemorrhage) due to retained placenta -D&C?

Looking to see if anyone else has experienced this? Currently trying to pass retained tissue ( 4 weeks pp) and finding every day so exhausting just constantly waiting and checking my bleeding. I stopped bleeding on week 2.5/3 then bleeding picked up last Saturday and I haemorrhaged on Thursday morning with a rush to hospital. Everyday since I’m waking up scared I’ll be bleeding out. Worried to go toilet to check, I’m not convinced I’ll be passing it naturally and I’m worried I’ll need a D&C… has anyone had this? My retained tissue is 2cm so they said it’s small but I have no signs of passing it or blood changing colour to show slowing down.

Boy or girl?

I’ve just discovered the nub theory and this is my 4th baby. Anyone take a guess?

New to nub theory idea

Fourth pregnancy and only just discovered this. Any guesses?

Palpitations and out of breath

Anyone else dealing with heart palpitations and running out of breath super quickly?

I already spoke to my midwife, and they put me on magnesium and extra electrolytes and said if it doesn’t help, to tell them again. I have my next OB appointment on Tuesday and I plan on bringing it back up when I see her then, but I feel like my shortness of breath has just gotten increasingly worse and the dizziness is now off and on when I used to not get it before.

Anyone else has that experience?

I am 30 weeks on Wednesday (March 25) with a C-section scheduled for end of May.
