Hospital bag review

I’m 37 weeks and told the baby can come anytime so I got to packing my hospital bag tonight.

Ladies, please review this.

Do you think this is good enough for a hospital bag?

I also have 2 Lindt chocolate bars (snacks), L&D gown just in case and a going out outfit for when I leave the hospital.

First baby

I have some questions because I don't have much experience—this is my first baby. What will happen after 40 weeks, once the due date has passed, if the baby doesn't come? Or after 42 weeks, will I have a normal delivery or need a C-section?

Iron tablets

Has anyone else that took/takes iron tablets (Ferrous fumarate) ended up with diarrhoea and extreme uncomfortable aches/pains in the stomach hard to explain the feeling. I’ve tried contacting midwife but she’s not answering.

Period return

Im 6 weeks PP and breast feeding. My blood loss stopped about 10 days ago but have still been having a tiny bit of discharge type stuff and still needed to wear a pad. Today I've got heavy blood flow. Is this my period or the blood loss?
I had an emergency c section and my tummy has become quite painful and swollen again in the last week.

December mummies

My EDD is coming up 25/12/26, I had an emergency c section first time at 41 weeks
This time around I’m really thinking of a plan c section, my question is anyone similar due date. Would they do it 39 weeks on the Friday 18th or the week of 25th so say 21st or 22nd etc?

Thanks 🙏🏻

32 weeks

Hi everyone at 32 weeks did a lot of you start to feel like your getting a lot of energy back but also can't do much at the same time? I haven't been sleeping great at all anymore and I'm always uncomfortable no matter what I do. I am starting to feel super tired but also like I have so much energy. I just feel like I am going through so many emotions and can't figure out if it's normal.
