Early scan

I done early scan today , I believe I am 6 weeks excatly today and they couldn’t see anything. Told me to come back in 2 weeks, I thought we could see a sack at least. Abit worried, I feel maybe the weeks are around and I’m earlier ?

Are you going by the first day of your last period for your dates? It's not unusual for them to not see anything if the numbers are even a little out. Hopefully the next few weeks will go by quickly for you and all is well 🤞

Yes 11th January is first day of my last period? I used NHS to check my weeks but they could not see anything

It may just be that you ovulated late, early reassurance scans can often do the opposite 😔

Not the first time I’ve heard this lovely! If I’d of gone a week earlier I’d of been told the exact same thing 🩷🤷🏼‍♀️ Try not to worry too much, if the test is positive then that’s a very good sign! I have absolutely no cycle (joys of Pcos) and I was predicted to be like 13 weeks and I was only 7 x

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.

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.

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.

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!
