Baby number 2 symptoms

I have just found out I’m about 4 and a half weeks pregnant with my second. (Just under 1 week before missed before)

With my first, I didn’t test until I was a week late on my period and symptoms came on quite quickly after (hot flushes, extremely sore boobs etc)

My anxiety is that apart from period like pains for over a week, mood changes and occasionally feeling hot, my symptoms don’t seem as strong as with my first pregnancy.

Has anyone else experienced this when they found out earlier than with their first or other children?

For my second pregnancy it took me way longer to even click on that omg hey I might be pregnant because my symptoms were so slight. Turned out to be twins. Pregnancy was all good with no further risks and they were all well and healthy.

2nd pregnancy -mucus plug

For those that aren't first time mums, has your mucus plug gone yet? I'm 37 weeks on Saturday, but my MP went today. I called the 24/7 number line and they advised me that with second pregnancy, labour can come on a lot quicker. Could be days, or even tonight 🙃 the panic is real now! I'm hoping there's some mums here that can reassure me that theirs have gone days/weeks ago 👀🙏🏼

Bump bruising

So I had to have a couple of blood thinning injections directly into my bump on Tuesday and the bruise HURTS any advice on what I can do to relieve the discomfort? It’s on my left side as well so makes sleeping really difficult right now 😩

Need help with biblical boys name

I am currently pregnant with my third boy and lost for a name
My current boys are named Samuel and Jesse
I love timeless biblical names (Noah, Benjamin, Joshua) but they seem overused
Any other names with the same vibe as my current boys please 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you so much 💕

Movement

Anyone experiencing really irregular/“unpatterned” movements? I am 23+5. Last week baby seemed so active everyday moving and thumping inside. The last couple of days the movement has seemed less - especially through the daytime - and also feels less intense (maybe just moved position or cushioned against something?). I have posterior placenta. Hard not to overthink/panic so wanted to know if anyone else experiencing the same! X

Breech baby

Hello all I’m 36 weeks and have been told I have a breech baby. Has anyone managed to successfully get theirs turned around?
I have quite bad reflux too so hanging upside down is not ideal.
Any tips or experiences are welcomed thank you xx
