What feels/felt like the longest wait, the 12 week scan or 20 week scan?

For me I feel like the 20 week scan right now is the longest wait. It's not because I care about gender, I just want to know everything is okay and what to buy 😭 but it feels like forever away even though it's this month

Stretch and Sweep

Hi girls!
I am 41 weeks and I am booked in for a membrane sweep this morning. For the past 3 weeks I have been in false labour and have lost my mucus plug around 5 times.

How many of you have had successful sweeps please?

I feel like I am trying everything and baby girl is just too comfy haha

Hospital bag

I'm having my second baby at the end of the month and my first baby was an emergency c section. This time I'm doing scheduled c section. Any ideas what to pack specifically for a scheduled c section?

Name spelling

I’m due a second little boy in July! My husband and I have decided on a name but we are unsure on spelling as there are 2 variations. It is not a common first name and I am UK based where it is more commonly a surname. In the UK it is more commonly spelled Callaghan with the G which is silent and has Irish roots. However, as a first name it is used more frequently in America spelled Callahan. Opinions on with or without the G?

Any tips for avoiding induction again?

For context I have been induced 3 times at two weeks over. Babies never want to vacate lol this time round I would love to not have to have an induction. Are there anything that people have done that has helped? I’ve tried before all the usual walking,sex,spicy foods,pineapple, tea etc

C-section hospital bag question..

Never had a section before always gone straight home after birth.

How many pairs of underwear should I be packing? Is 3 pairs enough?

Also is there anything else you'd recommend if I have to stay in?
