38 weeks!

Looking for some advice, was admitted for reduced movements on Friday but self discharged as everything was okay and movements picked up. Since last night I’ve been having light spotting and then this morning feel like again movements have dropped even after a couple of cold drinks. I do have a doppler scan today so is it worth mentioning something when I get there or call up before I go?

Anyone bleed like a period in early pregnancy, or am I cooked?

I’m 10dpo today. Yesterday I was getting faints. Today they’re darker, but all of a sudden last night I started bleeding dark red like a period… but my tests today are darker but not dark enough for a digital. I’m worried about ectopic. If this were chemical wouldn’t the tests be lighter?

Clingy baby

Hi I know its quite normal for baby to want to he held all the time, but how long does this last so intensely for? It seems all day I cannot put baby down so have to wear a carrier to get anything done in the house. Do they become slightly more independent as time goes? It's really frustrating starting to have back ache from carrying everywhere

Conceiving after C-section

Hi all!

I’ve seen many conflicting posts about conceiving after a c-section. I ideally do not want a large gap between my children. I’m currently 5 months pp and would like to start ttc in a few months.

People who waited or didn’t wait -what was it like?

If you didn’t wait the recommended time, was it another section or is a VBAC achievable that soon?

Thank you 💗

GD

I thought my results by the finger pricking were good, turns out they were great for a non pregnant lady 😂
Anyway, I have GD, and it’s likely they’ll put me on medication since my 11-12hr of fasting is still giving a high reading. I have 1-2 weeks to adjust my diet and go from there even though I’m already eating a balanced diet, and eating what I can with Hyperemesis.

Those who’ve had it, is it more common to be given tablets or injections?
And if it’s injections, is it once a day? 🫣
