5 days post Partum

Hi guys
I’m five days post partum; I have stomach ache and diarrhoea, feel quite fluey (my milk is coming in) and I have blood in my stools so guessing I have haemerroids.

Does anyone else feel sick 5 days post baby with tummy pain and runny stools. I’m thinking I may also have stomach flu too 😭

Induction vs C Section

Hi All!
I’ve recently found out that I can’t go to my due date (for a couple reasons). I initially had my sights set on a natural birth in the birthing centre but now that’s obviously not on the cards!

I’ve been reading a lot online & speaking to people and I’m really torn on an induction or planned c section. I’d love to be able to give birth naturally but I don’t want it to be a long process that ultimately ends in a c section?! I’ve also got GBS so I’m more concerned about a long labour.

I have an appointment coming up with a consultant to discuss but I’d really like to have my own “plan” on what I’d like before I go to the appointment.

So… anyone with prior experience… planned c section or induction? What would/did you choose?

Thank you💖

Does this sound like early signs of pregnancy?

I have a 20 month old (just turned on thr 26th) and ive been having a few symptoms of early pregnancy.
I don't remember much of my pregnancy with my first as I was so dazed all the time!

I think I've just convinced myself I'm not pregnant (I'm on the implant) but some part of me thinks I really really am😂
I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet, but in the next week I will be.

•Weird pinching feeling which is sharp
•Sore boob's
•Being more energetic
•Constipation!!!
•Gaining weight
And just overall a gut feeling. I'm kind of hoping I am, as we're ready to bring another baby into the world but I don't want to get myself excited and get really sad if the test comes back negative :(
