35 weeks Feel like I’m constantly leaking but it’s like just wetness and little dribbles at what point would you be concerned??

She is moving loads currently whilst I feel dribbles and is head down so possibly pushing on bladder??

I would highly recommend you get yourself checked out. Your waters might have broken. Mine went very early in pregnancy and then they have days where I would be damp and baby was sitting on the hole. Sometimes better to be safe than sorry x

I have zero contractions or anything. I was in bed and felt something and looked down and there was a patch in my bed of water.
How long has been like it for? I would maybe phone triage and see what they say, could maybe be a discharge? But does it feel more like wee/ dampness. After my waters went my baby actually stayed in until 37weeks. But needed to have antibiotics for any potential infection and weekly checks

I’ve been the same, I don’t think it’s waters, I think it is just a leaky bladder although it doesn’t smell strong of urine but a little. You can go to triage and have a swap to check if it’s amniotic fluid to be on the safe side, if it is waters they may send you home but will likely mention induction and want to monitor you often until baby is born

Increased discharge is also a sign your vagina is cleaning itself ready for the upcoming birth

Likewise and for me it seems to be more a case of a leaky bladder and more discharge (almost 37 wks now)

Could this be early labour?

Since 10:00am today I’ve been getting period like pains very low down that last about a minute and are around 6-7 mins apart.. my lower back has been really achey for days and I’m pretty sure I lost my mucus plug last week (although there was no blood)
I’m 37+1 today and with my first I was 10 days early and already dilated 2cm. ( ended in a emergency c-section)I’ve never really had braxton hicks but this could be just that? The pain isn’t strong enough to call it a contraction but it’s there if you know what I mean! What do you think? X

3 days until c-section & my anxiety is so bad

Planed cs after emergency cs. I know this will be “different”. I know I won’t have the added trauma/ stressors… yet, I’m still extremely anxious. It hit me yesterday after my last OB apt when they gave me pre-op packets etc. I couldn’t sleep last night, and I’ve been anxious all day. How did you calm yourself before going in?

What if my anxiety is so bad, they say they need to put me to sleep to do it? I don’t know, that’s probably not how they decide to do that, but I’m just freaking out tonight 😞

C section

For the women who have had a C-Section, how long did you take pain meds for?

Vaginal or c-section? Where’s your head at?

So many friends have started asking me what I’m thinking about birthing plan and to be honest I’ve not really thought about it (probably should at some point 🫣) A number of friends didn’t have great birthing experiences and ended up with emergency c-sections which got me researching planned ones despite it never previously being something I had considered.

I’m curious to see where other mums-to-be heads are at with this one & thoughts behind it? No judgement here! 🥰

Elective c section

When do you find out about your c section date? I’m 38 + 5 and still haven’t heard yet.

C section mamas - tummy and around the incision still tender?

I had my c section 3.5 weeks ago and generally I’m feeling good but if I touch or put any pressure on my stomach above my c section then it’s still pretty tender.

Do others have this?
