How much longer to go?

On April 10th I had my 36 week appointment where they did the swab and checked my cervix. I was 36 + 1 at that point and they told me I was 1 cm dilated. I googled after the appointment and it said that you could stay at 1cm for hours or even weeks. Rationally I want baby to stay in as long as possible and “cook,” but another part of me wonders how long this is going to go on for.

transvaginal ultrasound bleeding

I had transvaginal ultrasound yesterday. I’m 6 weeks pregnant.

I’ve just wiped and have a small amount of blood 😔 I know the internet says this is normal but wanted to hear from woman that had the same and everything was ok?

Thanks

C section scar

Hi, I’ve had a c section and it has healed so nicely to the point where you can barely tell it’s there. Im worried if I have another will it possibly be way more noticeable and do they cut in the same spot? Should I be considering doing a vaginal birth? I loved my c section experience although it was an emergency c section last minute.

22 weeks honestly to be concerned about movement?

I’m 22 weeks pregnant with my first, I’ve been feeling baby move regularly for the past week, she doesn’t usually stop moving, but the last day or two I’ve not felt her as much, like the odd movement here and there but not as much as usual. Is it too early to be worried? I’ve been told that they don’t start regular movements till nearer 28 weeks but I’m just paranoid that I felt her so much before and now not as much.
