Tight tummy since ECV
Due this month, last week had an ECV that managed to turn baby half way, meant to go back this week coming for another look & if returned to original position will just be booked for section.
My bump since the procedure has been sore as expected and solid, doesn’t help I have a cold and dry barking cough. However, it’s making it almost impossible to feel any movements. I went in for CTG Friday and Yesterday (booked for reassurance) and baby was happy and moving lots (not that I could feel it all) but today is exactly the same, so tight, can barely feel anything. I’m so sad, I don’t know what to do, I feel completely pathetic ringing again seen as CTGs have been fine over the last 48 hours. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on what I should do? 😭 feel at my wits end now, movements had been fine prior to this.

Is it a bad idea to watch "one born every minute" when pregnant?
So I am 16 weeks and 5 days now and I want to try to prepare myself for what's to come. I have had mixed reactions to the idea of watching child birth docs/TV shows such as one born every minute. What do people think? I have never seen the show before myself, Will this be helpful or am I going to scare myself? 😂😂

Fibroids and home birth?
I’ve got a small fibroid but even though it’s small the consultant still recommended I don’t home birth. The home birth team don’t seam concerned and are still happy for me to go ahead…. it’s higher risk of haemorrhaging but after doing research I can actively manage this by getting the placenta out straight away… I’m not worried, if I have to go to hospital so be it ,but I’d rather try to continue with a home birth as planned. Anyone else have any experience with this?

Breach at 38 weeks
Baby has been engaged at every scan from 28 weeks, last one at 36 weeks and was 3/5 engaged!
Last night I fet baby move and im sure theyve turned breach, whole bottom of my stomach feels empty, kicks feel like they're in my lower tummy and rock hard under my ribs.
I have another growth scan tomorrow and was scheduled for a sweep straight after but I dont think that will go ahead now.
Can baby be turned this far along still?
Absolutely petrified of the thought of a cesarean, (i actually passed out at them just describing one when I went to labour classes with my first born)
