C section

Hey everyone, I’m 37+0 and meant to have a planned C-section (medical reasons) but still haven’t been given a date yet.
Just wondering when you guys got your date and how many weeks you were? Also what week did they book your C-section for?

I had my date at 37 weeks. (A week earlier than originally told) I was supposed to have had my section this morning at 39 weeks but got a call from the hospital yesterday afternoon that all elective surgeries have been postponed until next week. I’m now booked in for Monday. ❤️

I elected to have a repeat section due to my first birth experience going to an automatic section. I consulted with the ob at around 27 weeks. I had mine booked that day when leaving. Because it was elective and not medically necessary, I was booked at 39+5.

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?

Postpartum bleeding or potentially pregnant?

So my postpartum bleeding stopped a week and half to 2 weeks ago and last Saturday me and my partner had sex with a condom and didn’t realise until after that the condom split, at that point I was 3 weeks postpartum. I managed to ring the doctor on Monday and got the morning after pill, they obviously said to check in 2 weeks if I’m pregnant again to see if the pills worked.

Today I’ve gone for a wee and when I’ve wiped and there was a small amount of brown discharge, now I’m panicking and overthinking because what if it’s implantation bleeding as I don’t know if I ovulated or not due to not having my period back and if I took the morning after pill in time but could I be showing pregnancy signs (ie implantation bleeding) this early?

I’ve got about a week before I do a pregnancy test but I’m panicking lol
