Baby brother for Margot Olive

With a really annoying convoluted surname 🤣

Margot pronounced Mar-go (the same as Hugo I suppose) if that makes any difference.

Love Hugo but not sure if they sound silly together as they rhyme?

My son is nearly 5 months old and he’s not showing any signs of even the slightest bit of being interested in rolling over. I practice with him all the time. I’m an anxious mum and I just worry he’s behind on his milestones😩

Epidural only worked on one side?

Did anyone else have an epidural that only worked on one side of their body? My left side went numb but my right side was staying to party.
I could also still move both limbs and walk immediately after birth. I raised it to the anaesthetist at the time and increased the dose/rotated me like a chicken, but we agreed for me to just power through rather than wait any longer.

It’s our me off a second birth tbh.

How to round out B belly ?

Has anybody actually found anything that helps to make a B belly baby bump look rounder? I hate that I just looked fat all the way through my first pregnancy ( for reference I'm size 16-18) and want to find something that will smooth out the center line ready for maternity photos this time round? Any advice please?

Anxiety!

So I’m currently 7 weeks and 1 day, I had a scan about a week ago so I would’ve been 6 weeks and 3 days, the crl was 7.0mm and there was possible cardiac activity detected. I’ve seen scans around the same time as me with bigger babies and clear heartbeats. I’m so so paranoid that the next scan isn’t gonna be good news as I expected to see a heartbeat at my last one.

Can anyone share their experiences if they’ve had similar? It’s my first pregnancy and until I see a heartbeat my mind just won’t settle. Here’s my recent scan picture

VBAC

My first pregnancy went fine no complications was having extra scans due to low lying placenta. At 32+4 I had a bleed so went to PAU and was told id be kept in and monitored for 24 hours but whilst in there had another bleed so the decision was made to have an emergency c section. I was told after it was a placenta abruption but they couldn’t confirm the cause baby was in NICU for 4-5 weeks. Im now 23+6 with my second pregnancy and have felt fine throughout, classed as high risk for pre term so under a consultant. I was considering natural delivery but recently have started to get the horrors reading up about VBAC. Would anyone like to share their experience?
