Hi all, do you know how many people can stay with you in the hospital after your delivery in the recovery room? Mine is a planned C-section at Homerton. Do they allow more than 1?

After delivery? I’d imagine only 1 but I’m not 100%

Before delivery most places is two, planned section only one in theatre, and after delivery it's only one person xx

It’ll be just one person x

Thank you all

I wasn’t allowed anyone. had my baby in Manchester.

I also have a planned C section with Homerton end of April. I saw the consultant yesterday and asked her the same question. She said our birth partner is allowed to stay overnight with us. But only 1 person though. Was worried about this cause I heard a lot of people say that no one was allowed to stay with us. But it is definitely not the case at Homerton.
Am I the only person with an anterior placenta who just felt there baby start kicking and now when ever I wake up I struggle to go back to sleep becuase baby is very very active and no stop kicking me ???? Not that I dont enjoy it i do but I still want sleep. Also it is only me who has like 3 months left and can only drink coke cola

Hey mums, 20 days post emergency c section after a failed induction at 39 weeks. I experienced placental abruption and then developed sepsis after birth spent 5 days in hospital in total.
I was in so much pain and experienced a lot of trauma from the c-section including being on oxygen etc. Did anyone else experience anything similar and how did you find recovery? It’s been tough🩵

Hi guys. Had my anamoly scan today. They informed it will be baby girl. But they checked once and then confirmed. But is there any chance it could be wrong?
Though I am happy to have a girl and preferred to have girl but I wasn’t convinced by my midwife as she checked only once🫣

Looking for anyone who’s had a similar experience! Up until now my baby has been very active through the day with strong punches and kicks but over the past 48 hours, the movements have changed to more gentle rolls and bulges. I also think he’s sitting low as I’ve been feeling pressure and some aching down there. Would appreciate hearing if anyone’s had anything similar!

This is my second baby and I had a traumatic birth with my first I’m now 4 days overdue and I had a growth scan at 39+6 and baby’s predicted weight was around 8lbs 15oz, I’ve now been told I’m at greater risk of shoulder dystocia, an anal tear and or needing another episiotomy. They can’t book me in for a c section but also not sure if that’s what I want, I’m already 2cm dilated when I had my sweep but don’t know if my body isn’t naturally going into labour as I’m so scared.
