My second section was done at 38wks my first was 37wks (Both planned)

My second was booked for week 38 (because I went into early labour at week 38 with my first) but came week 37 due to a few reasons including Xmas and a blood lab strike 🤦‍♀️

My second was scheduled at 39 weeks

My second was booked for 38 weeks due to having gestational diabetes x

With my second they tried booking in for 39 weeks but I declined and said I want it booked in closest to 42 weeks as possible so I had chance to go into natural labour, I did go into labour but ended up with emergency c-section anyway

I read a headline about a woman being arrested for starting a child fight club and that got me thinking...

Do you think your kid could win in child fight club? Mine could. I think that the fight club would just be him versus all the other kids.

Baby engaged 37 weeks

I was told last week at 37 weeks that baby is fully engaged and very low down by my midwife. This is my second baby and I’ve read that second time around baby usually engages later on. My midwife said she doesn’t think she will see my at my next appt (39 weeks) as she thinks the baby will come early based on this! Does this mean labour is near? Any second time mums experienced the same and did baby come early?

Baby rolling onto front in sleep

My baby has been trying to roll on his front for a while but I’ve peered over tonight and seen he has got himself on his front whilst asleep. He’s kind of mastered back to front rolling but not other way round. Am I right in saying I still have to keep rolling him back onto his back for now? X
