Is there a children's museum near you? Those are super fun! Although

Was just gonna say although it might be harder I'd she's not walking

-Go to a car wash and get "The Rainbow Wash" 🌈
-paint her nails (just toes if she sucks her fingers)
-pretend to do her makeup (my girls loved that and still do)
-have a dance party
-edible paint from amazon, poster boards, and your babe in a diaper 😂
-non toxic washable markers, poster boards, then babe in a diaper 😂🤷♀️
Going places like a children's museum for a 1yr old is harder to enjoy. There are a couple things for them to do but not very much. But in my opinion a birthday can be anything. It doesnt have to be a party or going anywhere special, it could just be doing stuff out of the ordinary. Have a messy birthday! My kids now have 3 options:
-party, with friends and family
-small day trips, but spread out
-long, far away trip, out of state
They mostly like the small day trips or long, far away

Oh I forgot to add at the end.... the day trips that we do would be something like
-go to a new park thats within a 3hr drive (could be 5 minutes down the road, its just what we are in the mood for and what we have money for)
-go to an ice-cream parlor or donut shop
-our children's museum does discounts for wic and ebt. So we get in for $5 each and its in the 3hr range
-finding random events thats are going on near us throughout the month that are posted on Facebook.
I need the mamas that have had a c section done. I’m done having kids after this baby (I’ll have two after this one is born) my 2 year old was a vaginal birth. I’m tryna weigh out the pros and cons on having a c section. I wanna know your experiences, how long you were in the hospital for, what your recovery time was before you felt physically “normal” again like had no pain. Now I understand everybody is different with healing and pain tolerance. I just wanna get everyone’s opinion. Also if I were to have a c section would they do the tubal ligation right then and there or would I have to come back to get it done.

Hey. I was just thinking. What is considered as reduced movement? Assuming you normally feel your baby move 5 times a day. If they moved just 2 times on one day, 4 times the next, once the following day but next to 5 the day after. Is that reduced movement or irregular movement? At what point exactly do you call triage?

This is my second and am so nervous as when and where my waters might break. With my first I was induced and they broke my waters. I know it’s not always like the movies where it’s the big gush but it still makes me so nervous. What if am out, or at toddler group or nursery run or something 🥲 I would hate to be in a public place and people end up making a fuss 😣 I know am over thinking all of this but I can’t help it!

Can real labour contractions just start close together instead of being far apart and at inconsistent times to start then getting close???
I’m 37 +2 and I’ve had braxton hicks for weeks but just started having contractions about 20 minutes ago I’ve had 5 so far and haven’t timed them as of but they are a lot more intense and low down and I need to breathe through them. I’ve had no waters break idk if I’m just overthinking
