worrying for no reason?

i could be worrying over nothing
i’m not at any risk for having baby early, but i’ve had constant lower back ache allll day and think i lost my mucus plug two weeks ago and cannot stop going to the toilet today😅i didn’t have any of this until the week i went into labour with my first. not looking for medical advice, im just wondering if anyone’s having the same?

had my glucose test this morning and a midwife check up (bp, baby’s heart rate) and everything was fine. got to wait two days for my test results too.

midwife didn’t seem too concerned when i mentioned the mucus plus a couple weeks ago but the back ache won’t go away and i just have an impending feeling of him coming early. he’s already head down and there is SO much pressure in my pelvis.

i have a consultant appointment tomorrow to see if i have to have a section (cat 1 emergency with my first) so will ask for a full check up then, just wondering if anyone else on their second or more babies are having the same? i’m 29 weeks tomorrow🩵

thankyou for reading this far- a mum that’s freaking out 😅x

I lost my mucus plug with all of my 4 around 26 weeks but it keeps re generating right up until you give birth! Backache is awful around this time anyway especially if baby is moving on to nerves etc can make it feel quite wavy. I wouldn’t stress at all it’s so normal and all of mines came term xx

Placenta abruption

Hi ladies.
I’m currently 30 weeks + 1 day, I’ve had my midwife appointment which ended up going to triage and having an emergency scan, to then see the Docter who mentioned placenta abruption, but they didn’t really go into to much detail, just told me no heavy lifting, avoid using the hoover 🤷‍♀️ baring In mind I work in hospitality so on my feet a lot etc, also be told to call triage immediately if I have more reduced movements, bleeding or loss of fluids.

Has anyone had any experience with placenta abruption that could in lighten me a little I know everyone’s difference but I just feel a bit lost 😂

I’m in the waiting phase for my second baby

Please comment how far along were you when your baby came. I’m trying to see if I have realistic expectations on when my second baby might come. First came at 39W+1 and I’m currently 38W+1 with my second. I’m hoping she comes at 39W like her brother.

6 months pp

1. I can not believe my baby is 6 months on the 26th :,)
2. When did everyone wait to get pregnant with #2?
3. Did anyone get pregnant at 6 months plans have a vbac? Or a fully successful pregnancy?

Trying to survive third trimester

I’m 30+3, baby is head down and measuring in 94th percentile. I have another growth scan at 36 weeks. This kid is pressing so hard into my cervix, yet simultaneously keeping me from being able to breathe. I’m so nauseous and have slept like crap. How do we survive the last 8+ weeks of this?
