Mamas of more than 1 question for yall!!

With your preterm babies did they come earlier each time? My son came at 34 weeks and my dr is saying I won’t be making it to fulll term so I’m curious how much earlier baby number 2 will be.

My first was 11 weeks early due to reduced growth, reduced movements and preeclampsia and was 1lb 14oz
My second I had no problems at all and had a planned section at 39 weeks because growth had started to slow in the scans and he was estimated at 6.5lbs but came out 7.5lbs

My first was 28 weeks (unknown reasons) and my second was 37+3. I have a friend who had a 29 weeker followed by 35 weeks (hers was pre eclampsia)

Had twins and then a singleton around 37weeks, then two 35weekers

Do active babies in the womb become active newborns?

I had my 40 week ultrasound yesterday (on my due date) and the doctor mentioned how active my baby is. Curious as to your experiences regarding if your baby was active in the womb, are they likely to be active when they’re newborn? 😊

Small bumps

I have a really small bump, at 27 weeks pregnant. People keep commenting on the fact my bump is so small and its starting to worry & get me down. Has anyone here had a small bump with a baby that weighed measured average size? Its really worrying me! I have a 30 week scan and one at 37 weeks because im on a moderate pathway - had a gastric sleeve in 2023 so its to check she is growing but as the comments are coming im now panicking where I wasnt before 😫

Early Labour?

I’m 34 weeks today, since 3am I’ve been having irregular cramping which becomes quite intense and has caused me to vomit. I’ve also had diarrhoea. Could I be in early labour or could I just have a bad stomach? I feel generally well in myself

7 w post c-section running

When is it ok to start running again? Health visitor advised to wait longer before running but did anyone start at 7 weeks and how?
I know I won't be running marathons any time soon and probably have to start back at a couch to 5k but when?! I'm getting restless legs! Advice please

28wk5days growth scan📈

I’ve just been to my first growth scan as my bump was measuring small, for the lady to say that baby should be between 2pound 2ounces - 2pound 5ounces and my baby is measuring 2pound 15ounces which is above average, any one else has similar measurements?x
