Is fan being on spin mode okay as it blows on my baby as it goes round the room?

I know fans shouldn’t be directly pointed at baby but it’s 29 degrees in the room no breeze going with windows open so it’s facing us but not directly on us the hole time it’s on spin mode so on and off us?

I think that’s completely okay for it to be in spin mode, they say not to have it directly on their face as it could mess with their breathing.

I’m The same and have it circulating. I’ve been told it’s fine as long as it’s not left directly facing baby

We've been doing the same thing all summer during heat like this.
As long as it's not left directly facing them you're fine. When its that hot inside the greater risk would be overheating than getting too cold from a fan!

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

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?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
