Admitted to L&D at 26wks

26wk 6days today, I went in for glucose test and sono and ended up being sent to L&D for monitoring as babies heartbeat is irregular and cord is wrapped around her neck. I can't help but panic. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Please share your experiences 🙏 🥺

This is my 3rd baby, first time anything like this has happened.

I was admitted at 25+1 because I went in to get checked for spotting and found out I was 5cm dilated 🫠

I stayed for just over 5 weeks. My son was born 30+2 after I contracted an infection and had a partial abruption

@Kiarra omg that must've been so scary. I'm so glad you and your baby are ok 🙏

I was released earlier, they just told me to keep taking note of movements at home but they were happy with babies heartbeat after monitoring for hours

Anyone else up feeding their Bebe?

As above. Trying so hard to keep my eyes open

Small head reported following 20 week scan

Has anyone else had it flagged that their baby is in the bottom 5th percentile for head size?

They said everything was fine whilst we were in the scan and then I got a phone call the next day saying that it’s on the small side and we’re being referred to a paediatric specialist at St George’s. Has anyone else had this and how did things go??

Would you bring 9 week old to a family party of 35+ people?

These are also people who will want to pass the baby around and get a turn to hold him. He just got his 2 month shots two days ago

Exercise 6 weeks after c section

What movement did people start to introduce? I won’t do anything too vigorous until I’ve seen the pelvic physio as I don’t want to compromise anything that may have been extremely weakened through pregnancy! But just wondering what types of classes/movement people started off with?

Is this normal??

I’m 29 weeks pregnant and having really aching legs and they’re all lumpy and swollen. Above the knee and behind the knee . Should I be worried ? My legs have never looked like this up until a few days ago. ??
