I got one form the physio (twice through 2 pregnancies) can’t say I used them much as it just put more pressure on my lower back instead (I had a 11lb 4oz baby)

I have been having the same pain, I bought these two belts and actually wear them both at the same time and the extra support definitely helps. I don’t think one belt alone would be enough for the pelvic pain. My doctor said the belts will help ease the pain but that I need to keep off my feet as much as I can so I don’t permanently injure my pelvic bone.

I bought a babygo pregnancy belt and it helped keep my back straight for a bit but I had to stop using it as it put too much pressure on my bump and was annoying taking on and off to go to the toilet (every 20 minutes 😅)

Living in a top floor flat.

Am I being dramatic

I posted a couple days ago about losing my plug throughout the day in big chucks and I had no contractions or tightenings just kept coming out. Since last night I haven’t been able to sleep because of nausea and pain in my stomach and back, I’ve gone to the toilet about 6 times, could this be my body clearing itself? I didn’t have any pain this morning but since i’ve been relaxing i’ve had tightenings right down in my pelvis, some painful some not. I’m 36+3 so have been advised by midwife to call if i have tightenings but i wouldn’t say they’re regular so I don’t know whether i just monitor it or call them? I hate calling and it turning out to be nothing 🙈 It’s my second pregnancy but was induced the first time round so I never experienced this!

I had a fall

I fell on my way to the GP! They examined me but emergency refused to see me and check on the baby because I am not bleeding. They wanted to Xray my leg which i refused as i feel it is minor. I am 17 weeks so not feeling movements yet and freaking out. I booked a private scan for Saturday but I am so worried something may happen to my baby.

C Section booking

Hello! Have any C Section mamas received their surgery date yet? Or know roughly how soon before they let you know your date? I’m due on the 15th but haven’t heard of when my section will be yet so was just hoping for some advice/previous experiences before I start chasing. I’m with Aneurin Bevan health board in south wales if that makes any difference 🙂

Post C-section.

So I’m 9 days PP today.
I’m still quite sore and heavy at my scar site. I daren’t bend to pick things up still & I’m still walking around the house/stairs slowly. Don’t feel comfortable unless I’m taking pain relief & also don’t want to leave the house as the car journey is way too bumpy & uncomfortable 😩
Is anyone else at a similar stage?
Does this all sound normal?

36 weeks

I have been experiencing period pains that come and go since about 11:45am and now they seem to just be there like a dull period pain constantly? Anyone else experienced this? Is it worth a call to triage?
