Calpol plug ins

Does any one else think calpol plug ins aren't strong these days?

The fragrance used to fill a full room, now I feel they're so weak!

Wondered if it's just me!

Lo has one on currently, and it fills her room (double room) and seeps into the hallway. I use it over two days as well.

I find still super strong when a fresh refill in but that it doesn't last as long.

I found it very strong the first times we used it and then after a while I could barely notice it. I think we just got used tot he smell!

I completely agree can hardly smell anything

I can smell it all the way down the hall from my little boy's bedroom to mine, so I think they are really strong still.

I’ve recently started using it and found it to be quite strong. Could smell it in the hallway too

I find them soooo strong! My daughter has a big room and it fills the room and comes out onto the landing!

Id write and complain see if you can get free ones as theyre not cheap.

I find them super strong to begin with but they definitely do NOT last as long as the packet says or as long as they used to. You’re lucky to get 2 days out of them now 🤣

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
