I’ve been having this issue for over 2 weeks and still no baby 😭

I felt like I was absolutely 💩’ing my brains out the entire day before I went into labor that night but I also had lots of soft stool on and off for like two weeks before so that day wasn’t super different to me to be able to know for sure anything was coming 🤷🏻‍♀️

Same, I've had soft stools for probably 2 weeks or more. Im a ftm so they say you get all the early labor symptoms for a while and it might not mean anything, just your body practicing the things. Currently 41 weeks today.

So upset.

I went to my midwife appointment this morning for a sweep.
Baby has been ready this whole pregnancy. I am 39+3.

I had a scan 8 days ago, she was growing lovely and engaged.

They couldn't do the sweep because baby has decided to completely turn and go breech right at the last minute 😞

Now I have to sit and wait all weekend until I hear from the hospital with a plan.

Stats show the most likely option is now a c section due to the timing.

I am absolutely gutted this has happened 😞

Cleft lip?

Never had a an experience of 4D. Had a scan at 17 weeks today they gave us a sneak peek. A friend I showed it to has said it looks like the baby has a cleft lip. Is it a shadow? I’m now worried. Would this be something that shows on a 20 week scan? First baby. Unsure what to do or think. 🥺😢

16 week scan - wrong gender

Did not expect the news today that I’m Infact having a little girl. Everyone says the cord is rare but it clearly isn’t. I’m total shock!

Need to exchange clothes. 🙈 hopefully it’s the same gender at our 20 weeks scan. Haha.

Our wee man has arrived!

Originally due 13th October, my blood pressure decided it no longer wanted to play ball and forced us into an earlier induction and all different hoops to jump through, but Brodie Angus has arrived today 09/10/26 at 12.59pm, weighing 8 pounds 15 ounces ❤️ and he has stolen our hearts!
