Second pregnancy with prolapse

Has anyone who has a prolapse have any experiences with a next pregnancy? I have a stage 2 prolapse and thinking on second pregnancy but I’m so scared my body is going to 💩 itself. I also really don’t want a c-section if I can help it. Has anyone had a natural birth with a prolapse where it doesn’t get 10 times worse?? Please give me any advice xo

YES! ME. I had my first son natural and had a prolapse. I was so nervous with my second pregnancy cuz i was still healing and starting to feel problems happening as he was growing in the pregnancy. I started doing daily pelvic floor excerises and stretches towards the end of my 2nd trimester until birth. I had my 2nd natural also and I took my bed rest after birth VERY serious. I'm now almost 3months pp and I haven't had not a single problem 🥰 and I was terrified I woulf

I had a prolapse following first baby and I’m now 9 months pp with my second who I delivered naturally. My second birth was actually a better experience than my first. Prolapse initially seemed worse immediately after birth but after a few weeks, once everything began to heal, its no worse off than previously.

I had a cystocele and rectocele from my first pregnancy. With pelvic floor PT my symptoms got a lot better before becoming pregnant with my second. Honestly, it didn’t bother me much during my second pregnancy and it has not gotten any worse after delivering my second (and I had 9 lb babies both times, vaginal births). I talked to my doctor about it and she said the concern with it getting worse would be a lot of extended pushing, like with my first where I pushed for 3 hours. This time, baby #2 was out in 15 min. Many women have to push a lot less for subsequent pregnancies. Of course everyone’s experience is different but I’m pretty much back to where I was as far as symptoms before my second baby

Anxiety with the bump.

I’m 36 weeks pregnant and I’ve suddenly developed a massive anxiety around anyone standing behind me. My husband is annoying me so much because even though I’ve told him how it makes me feel, he’s continued doing stuff in our kitchen (that is tiny anyway) and sliding past me to grab things. I know the baby is safe even if I were to bump the bump a little but even the thought of it is still making extremely anxious. How do I cope with this feeling and is anyone else going through the same sort of thing?

Anyone else due 1st May?

I’m wondering whether I’ll have an April or May baby, thought she’d be late originally because she’s my first but I’ve had this weird feeling recently she’ll be early… if you’re in the same position what do you think?

Anyone else really struggling because baby hasn’t hit certain milestones yet? My anxiety is overwhelming me.

Breathless and feeling like I need to be sitting constantly!

Has anyone else been feeling this way as they're getting closer to their due date?

I attempted to change our bedding this evening and had to call my husband for back up as I literally felt like my lungs were going to explode just trying to reach over to put the sheet on.

I'm huffing and puffing just getting my toddler into his pjs, and I was sat down! Like what is going on 😮‍💨🥲

Everything has been check ie bloods etc so I think it's just general pregnancy as I'm now 38 weeks. My bump feels like it weighs about 100lbs 😭
