Pain and soreness

I’m 37+4 and I swear to god the pain down below that I’m getting all day is ridiculous. It hurts to sit. I’ve Amazon primed a birthing ball to see if that helps relieve some of the soreness. I’m pretty sure it’s just baby moving further down but omg why does it feel like knives and pins being pushed through😭

Has anyone else had this??

Me! The pain in my vagina right now is next level. It’s like severe pressure every time I move it hurts so bad! A proper ache it’s hard to explain 😩😩

I’m so glad I’m not the only one. I’m sorry you’re feeling it because honestly I’m going to go insane. Everyone I tell just says everything is normal in pregnancy but how can this be normal!!

I feel exactly the same! It’s so so strange. I hope you find some relief soon 😩 I do definitely feel some relief when on ball but everything else is just painful 🤦🏼‍♀️

Omg ladies I’m so glad I’m not alone with this!! Literally can’t explain it! Spent 3 weeks continually checking down there to make sure I wasn’t chafing or no lumps etc I can touch and it’s not sore yet when I stand walk sit or lie omg the pain and bruised feeling!

Lightening crotch? The babys position is probably putting pressure on your nerve endings. I get it loads now. Try leaning over and swaying side to side, to encourage your baby to shift position. If you're walking about, go slower and practice your labour breathing.

yes!! I was doing my laundry earlier and felt stuck at a 90 degree angle after struggling to move it from washing machine to dryer 😭😭

Yep, it’s hard to put 1 front in front of the other at times without feeling like there’s daggers up there. Feels awful 😆

High risk

I’m considered high risk because I was fully dilated when I had an emergency C-section with my first and there’s risks I could go into pre term labour so I have cervical length scans every 2 weeks between 16-22/24 and I’m aloud to try for a vbac if I go into spontaneous labour by 40 weeks but I’ll have a planned C-section booked for week 40 ( which I’m really hoping doesn’t happen )Just wondering if anyone else had similar experiences I’m just very overwhelmed and hoping people have maybe had a good successful full term pregnancy & birth despite what IVE previously mentioned x

Nausea

I’m 6weeks 4days and my nausea is HORRIBLE ! I wake up immediately feeling like I’m about to throw up to the point I have to sit, breath in extra big breaths, I might feel light headed or like I’m going to pass out. This will literally last ALL DAY & has been for the past 5/6 days now. When I try to eat something I take very small bites as it feels like I’m going to throw up what I just put down. My mom told me about apple juice which has been helping but my goodness I cannot take it 😭 what has helped you guys who deal with bad nausea ?

Anyone had a growth scan around these dates?

I’ve got scans;
26+5
27+3
28+5

And just wondering what everyone’s babies weighed on/around these dates ? (And what centiles)


My oldest has a scan at 27+6 so I know roughly with that but interested to know how much growth tends to happen in such a short period ?

Rest

Anyone else lead a super busy lifestyle?

I am none stop between housework, dog walks, shopping, decorating, my toddler, nursery runs, work etc.

Sometimes I feel a kick and I’m like “oh yeah” because I barely sit down or rest.


Will this lead to any complications it’s generally has my anxiety higher as people keep telling me to rest but it’s not an option, not unless people helped me out 🙈

Middle name

We are fairly convinced we’ve decided on baby girls first name - Josephine (Josie) - but struggling for a middle name.

We’ve already got a boy Oziah (Ozzy) Sampson, and a girl Cassandra (Cassie) Evangeline. Last name beginning with E

Also open to other options all together as backups 😅
