Surgery & periods

Hello I’m just looking for a bit of advice, I’m due to have my 1st laparoscopy tomorrow and I’ve just come on my period, I’m unable to contact anyone as day surgery isn’t open on weekends , does anyone know if my surgery will still be able to go ahead ?

Thankyou in advance 💗

I had my surgery in March last year and I was on my period when having it (mine was towards the end of my period). I’d say call up first thing in the morning and see what they say. 🤞 everything goes well x

I've had 3 lots of surgery and being on your period hasn't effected any of them.

Hope it went well. I thin its better to already have first day of period behind you as its quite common to get your period early directly or a few days after the op and that can be v painful with the recovery on top.

yes surgery went well thankyou , they found minimal endometriosis and managed to remove it all. My surgeon said that having my period was not a problem at all. But have my regular period pains on top pain after surgery isn’t great but each day is getting easier! X

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

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

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?

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏
