Frank breech

I’m 29 weeks and at my appt last week they told me baby was frank breech. My last was head down the entire pregnancy so this is all new to me. I’ve been doing some spinning baby things hoping it will help her spin. I’ve seen people go back and forth on flipping the baby via evc due to it may not be safe for the baby In the long run (the umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck etc). However my situation I feel like is unique. In the ultrasound we could see the umbilical cord it was just kinda hanging out in front of her and she was licking it 😂 so I am worried about it potentially wrapping around her neck when she tries to flip but…. I also have high platelets which increases my odds of developing blood clots, having a pulmonary embolism, etc and that risk only increases with a C-section… has anyone else been in this situation? I know there’s still time for her to flip on her own I’m just freaked out.

You’re 29 weeks. You have ages left, leave baby be and see what position she’s in closer to 36 weeks.

I tried for a evc very painful and wasn’t successful you still have time for her to flip back round so don’t stress too much x

Anxiety about my bump

I’m 23 weeks pregnant and I’ve been starting to worry a little about my bump and movement. I do feel the baby move, but sometimes it feels like there’s not much movement for a while and then it picks back up again. I’m also not sure if my bump looks as big as it “should” for this stage, which has me overthinking everything.

I’m a first-time mom, so honestly I don’t really know what’s normal and what’s not yet. I’m trying not to stress myself out, but it’s hard not to when you just want to make sure everything is okay.

For moms who’ve already had kids, was this normal for you around 23 weeks? Did movement come and go? And did you ever worry about your bump size? I’d really appreciate any advice or reassurance 🤍

Pregnant with second 12 months PP, pre eclampsia and IUGR with first pregnancy

My little girl turns 1 this month, this week I have found out I am pregnant (very early) this pregnancy was not planned and I am feeling very overwhelmed. I had a very traumatic pregnancy with my little girl, pre eclampsia, IUGR, born at 34 weeks weighing 3lb and requiring a month in NICU. I’m petrified this will happen again. Has anyone got any positive (or negative 😩) stories who are in/ have been in a similar situation?
