I will say I had my son at 40 weeks and one day and I felt the same way you did I also was actively in labor and my water didn’t break so maybe your body is preparing for labor

Hahahahhaha eeeep I don’t think so unless bub has already come down the canal, don’t think it’s likely if you haven’t experienced active labour yet! But sounds like you might have started dilating? Are the cramps in regular intervals? If so that’s early labour - Exciting!! Wishing you an incredible birth 🧡

Sometimes the body labor in different ways. Not all in once may be this is your case. It sounds like a baby head but also that body is still preparing not fully ready.
I know a friend of mine labor for 4 days on and off.

Gender scan

What’s the best time to do a gender scan? I want to book mine for 15 weeks but is this a bit early?

Second early reasurrance scan.

I have had 3 chemical pregnancies and a missed miscarriage ( blighted ovum ) before this. I had a first reasurance scan 2 weeks ago when i would have been around 7 weeks + 1, the scan went well, heart beat seen etc but it was so small they dated me at 6 weeks rather than 7. So i had a second yesterday, for a clearer image and to see the progression and was dated back at 9 weeks + 2, heartbeat seen, baby growing big and strong they said. They were really happy with it. It gave me so much reassurance seeing both scans and does put my mind more at ease, how is everyone else doing around now? :) the symptoms are fun fun fun haha.

need advice!

I (22) just had my first baby a month ago now via c-section due to physical pain that made me unable to push. I love her and I would've loved to have another one but the pain is so unbearable that I dont think I could have another one. Did anyone else feel this way? Or could give me advice of how to bring it up better to my husband?

Exhausted

I don't know how much more I can take. This kids sleep is horrendous. I haven't gotten more than 5 hours of broken sleep a night in almost 8 months. It feels like he is trying to break me. I am so utterly miserable and severely regretting having another baby
