Is it random sharp pains or is it triggered by your movement? How far along are you?

It's called lightning crotch. I wish I were kidding, but that's the current terminology.
It is random, and usually very sharp to the point of being crippling.
I had it once or twice. It is usually due to baby putting pressure on the cervix or surrounding nerves.
Some stuff that helped me was swimming/water walking (my obgyn recommended this), wearing a belly band, warm baths to relax the muscles, and breathing through the movements to get out of pain (similar to yoga breathing).
Sorry you're going through it, it's totally normal, I hope this helps!

Does it last a long time?? If so, I would ask your OB.

Do I need to call?

I’m 27+6, and baby was SUPER quiet this morning. She’s now started moving normally again.

Do I still need to call in or can I just continue monitoring?

Party Bags

Where do we stand with party bags? 😫
My daughters second birthday is October and we don’t really know LOADS of kids, literally maybe a handful and majority are family, and we’re having a party for her like we did for her first but unsure wether to do party bags.

My nieces second birthday was over the weekend and they done party bags but it was all small things that I actually had to confiscate as choking hazards 😫

Do we do them this young? My other niece last year complained there was no party bags 🤣🤣

First appointment

Is it normal to not have the first appointment until like 8 weeks? Feels like a while but I literally have no idea.

Braxton hicks?

I think I’m having occasional Braxton Hicks contractions today - I can’t be sure though but it feels like a period cramps/squeezing really low down in my abdomen.
Anyway, they’ve been really irregular, like 1 every few hours for a few mins, I’m just wondering if I should maybe track them on the contraction timer app just to be sure there’s no pattern? Has anyone else done this? I don’t wanna overreact 😂.

Induction window

Advice please 😊
I was given an induction window Friday - Today and was told I could expect a call day or night to go to hospital to be induced. They haven’t phoned me as of yet, is it worth ringing them or waiting it out? Has anyone else experienced this? Not really sure what I do if they don’t call me tonight.
Thank you!!
