Am I crazy?

I swear I can see the faintest of lines. This would be a surprise as we weren't officially trying yet but welcomed. Don't worry about telling me what you really see. I won't be hurt.

After surgery underwear

Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for the best type of underwear to get to wear during c section recovery?

I have had my obstetrician appointment at 36+5 days to request my elective c section.

The consultant requested the surgery for the 1st October making me 38+5 days on the day of surgery. But she did caution that it may be between the 1st-8th depending on theatre availability.
How many people got honoured the date they requested, and how many requested a specific date and was given a different date?

help 🥲

I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep having pains in my back/side and it’s exactly like a cramp and it feels as if that part of my back seizes up and tightens and I can’t get rid of the pain, has anyone else had this and if so do you know how to get rid of it 😫 it’s been like this for over a week now, I can’t do anything without it getting triggered, I feel like it may be from the position baby girl is in but I feel so helpless I’m in pain literally everyday 🥲

Scared to remove c section bandage

The midwife told me to remove it on day 5. I had my c section Monday morning so does that mean today or tomorrow?

Girl names!!

I need help choosing a name for my second girl. I don’t want anything unusual but I want gently unique. Not top 10 names as they are so common. I don’t like names like river, romy etc as they are too out there for my liking.
I also don’t care about it “matching” my first.

Big baby

Had my growth scan today (38+5 weeks) and baby girl is at a EFW of 8.7lbs 😅 The lady doing the ultrasound was amazed at how big she was asking if she’s previously been measuring big, asking if I have GD (which I don’t), said baby has a chubby belly so my placenta must be doing a really good job, that she’s very very low down, her legs are very very long and said “wow you must be feeling that, this baby is going to be a bruiser”.

Throughout my whole pregnancy she’s been measuring big and I’ve always taken her efw with a pinch of salt as they’re not 100% accurate and have been quite excited to give birth but after the sonographers comments today I just feel so nervous and anxious for labour. I’m in constant pain because of how low she is, my 🐱 has swollen and the lightning crotch is unbearable to walk/sit/lay down. Did anyone else’s baby measure big during their ultrasound appointments? If so, how was it in labour? Will they suggest a c section for me because of her weight? I want to go all natural as I have sciatica so don’t want an epidural incase it messes up my back more and I really want to push.
