37weeks and my belly suddenly went squishy and almost flat looking?

it was so stiff the past few days so I noticed it as soon as I hopped out of bed

My belly gets like this sometimes. I think he just moves to my back

I notice that during the day my stomach will hardened throughout the day. I think it’s more due to me eating and bloating up. But I notice this too. I have actually started to “shape” my belly each morning to more feel if I’ve dropped or not.

April 1st baby! 🩷

Baby Millie arrived 27th March by elective section weighing 7lb 11oz! 🩷 We are still in the hospital as she has jaundice so needed to go under the lamp. Hopefully we are ok to go home today 🤞
For anyone going for an elective section after a traumatic previous emergency section.. it was such a healing experience for me! I got to watch her come out and it was absolutely amazing.
Also for 2nd time Mum's.. your heart will literally double in size and any worries you had will soon disappear.
Good luck April Mamas ❤️

To Induce or Not To Induce?

Still waiting on my little boy whose EDD was 15th of March.

I'm now 42+1 and the pressure is starting to build to Induce. I have been planning for a home birth so really would rather avoid if possible but now considering inducing at the end of the week or just opting for elective C Section.

Pregnancy has been super straightforward for me, no sickness or issues at all so feels a shame to need to Induce or C-Sec now!

Still feeling well in myself and movements are good. Not really having any signs of labour besides loose poops for a couple of weeks and a couple of nights with intermittent cramping (after I'd probably overdone it a bit in the garden).

I hear so many horror stories for inducing hence considering the elective! Does anyone have any positive stories or can make me feel a bit braver about hanging on!

Baby movements

I'm 31+6, and last night I felt less movement. Usually they are quite active. All night I was feeling and I got 1 it 2 small moves. I woke up and spoke to my husband. He tried pushing around my belly, not too hard, but to try and get movement. It took over 5 mins and I got a couple of moves... We had been on quite a busy day the day before and I had gone down a slide(whether that makes any difference). This morning still feels like less kicks. I feel I may be overreacting though. I've been really bad at figuring out my baby's full routine, I'm usually so busy rushing round, house stuff and 2 boys, and maybe some moves are so subtle that I don't feel them?...I feel like a rubbish mum already!

Abdomen on the 90th centile and femur on the 12th anyone similar?

I had my 39 week scan and in the past 18 days since my last scan baby has gained 1lb10oz and measuring 7lb5
Going from 27th centile to 47th centile, all is looking wonderful

Her femur was on the 9th so there was a little concern but now she’s on the 12th but there’s quite the jump in size centiles for abdomen when everything else seems much smaller!?

Has anyone had similar?
