Did you hear the heart beat at 16 week midwife appointment?

I did with my first, but wondering if they still do it? It’s been a few years. I’m so anxious ahead of the appointment due to a previous loss but also excited to finally hear baby (hopefully)

Any babies born before their due date?
My girl was due May 4 and she was born March 29 5lb 15oz 🎀 stayed in the hospital for 20 days (birth trauma was a B****)
But heres a pic of my little early bird

Vaginal or C-Section preference?

Just looking for people's experiences who may have had both a vaginal and a c section? I had a vaginal birth for my first. I struggled very badly with contractions, but the birth part was okay and had second degree tears. Walking straight after and recovery good.

C section has crossed my mind just because I hated contractions that much haha! But I keep telling myself the recovery would be harder, and its easier to just go through the pain with a vaginal and once baby is out, its over. Whereas c section may not hurt to get baby out, but harder recovery (haven't experienced so presuming).

Whats everyone's experiences?

Why

Why are most people wanting to start to try and induce labour earlier that 37 weeks 🥴 it honestly baffles me 😅 I get people want to meet their babies but geez babies are still developing and growing.
