How was your induction lovely? x

Also congratulations! X

Congratulations! Reuben was on my shortlist of names ❤️ He's lovely

Congratulations 🥰 if you don’t mind me asking.. was the induction out of choice or medical? ( obviously it’s up to you if you want to answer) just wondered as my trust offers induction at 39 weeks and I was to curious why

Congratulations! You got as close to june as you could 😊

Beautiful ❤️ congratulations x

Awwww!!! Sooo cute! Congratulations

@Becky it was medical (but choice too as I could have refused). Due to a mix of GD and high blood pressure with low platelets. They were worried I was going into HELLP and just rather he be out. Was induced 38 plus 3 and had him 38 plus 5 🙂

@Chloe it's wasn't bad at all! Def a long process so had to be patient. Cervix was closed on arrival. Got pessary 11am. Checked at 11am next day. Was 1cm but thin. Checked again 2230pm and 1-2cm but baby was low so didn't need to go ahead with foley balloon. Decided on breaking waters. Had to wait for room in delivery. Went in 3am. Waters were broken 4am. Hormone drip after 5. Born 1342. Little traumatising exit lol but all good

@aria we did! 10days early

he is reuben Monroe Alexander

i really want another baby

i am merely a few months pp but i want another baby, but i am scared of the age gap (2 under 2) and also with everything going on in the world i just think its not the best idea at the moment but i am having crazy baby fever and miss having a newborn🥹

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?

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

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

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!

Boy or girl🩷💙

Any guesses? Having a private scan tomorrow and gender reveal Sunday!! This was an emergency scan today at 16 weeks🤭
