Unusual cramping 9DPO

I’ve been having three days of near constant cramping where I would normally have AF pain…

Has anyone had this before?

We’re on our 4th cycle of TTC for baby number 2, but I had a previous c-section and PCOS which caused infertility with our first, so I’m leaning towards it being one of those issues.

What we think?

have you tested?? I usually test every day from about 6DPO 😄 but we’re away on holiday and I don’t have access to them! (I would have packed some, but I was trying to have some self control 🤦🏼‍♀️)

My c-section scars have been causing pain on and off since I had my daughter in March last year… quite a few people have told me pain can come from the surgical site for years, but at the moment, it feels a bit different - almost like my uterus is throbbing 😬

I'm having this too - last time I did I was pregnant 😳 intense cramping and now its GONE. Fingers crossed for us!

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

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

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 pi##ing them off ?!?! It goes off 5/6 a 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!!
