Don’t feel like you’re bothering them at hospital. Pls nothing is too small, call the maternity triage and get advice from them.

i had similar and went to triage to get checked. ALWAYS better to be safe than sorry with these things. could be nothing or could be something, keep us updated!!! 🥰

Definitely get checked! I wouldn't have waited this long if it's severe tbh. At least call them!

I felt something similar before I started having regular contractions. I suspect it was back labour …. Definitely get checked!

Hey girlies, I called them and explained what happened but they didn’t really give too much advice, said could be early but but could be nerve related/ muscle, they just told me to keep an eye for other symptoms

how many symptoms do they need 😆🥲
if i were you id recall and say it’s getting worse; the preexisting symptoms are worsening and maybe explain you think you might be going into labour. i think you need to go in though if it was severe.. xx

hey! Ended up calling again this morning and went in, they said I’m in early stages of labour, as nothing can do they sent me home, still got the pain but now it’s just watching and waiting xx

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!

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?

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

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? 🙏
