Advice

I’m currently 36+4

Just looking for advice on symptoms I’ve been having since last night.

Constant back and hip pain
Tightening on and off that lasted 2 hours last night
Nausea
Regular sharp shooting pains in my pubic area

Not sure what to do. I have been taking paracetamol and tried a hot shower.

I’m also 36+4 and I’ve been having on and off back cramps and pains and some tightenings the last few days. But I’ve had nothing at all today just the usual pelvic pain so I’m not sure if it’s just regular symptoms or something more

My issue is the pain in my back and hips just aren’t going away

Ive been experiencing this for the last 2 and a half weeks .. but still no baby 😔 I think body just preparing x

I could be wrong but sounds like baby is descending and preparing for birth x

Baby no2!

Would anyone mind sharing positive or negative experiences with VBAC's ? I've just had a consultant appointment and really don't know what to do!

For the past 3 weeks my poo has been quite soft and much more smelly than normal, I have constantly been suffering with eggy burps and severe tummy ache almost like trapped gas. Any advice on what to do thank you .

Big baby and c sec recommendation

I am 38 weeks pregnant, had my GD at 28 weeks when I didn’t have diabeties. At 33 weeks did it again and GD was borderline. From then I am very controlled on diet but baby is 98 centile and weighs 3.3kg at 37 weeks scan with most of the weight around Abdominal circumference. Doctors are recommending c section at 39 weeks. It’s very disappointing as I was prepping myself for normal delivery. I am 5.1 and petite so doctors are saying there are chances of high grade tearing and also epiostomy. I also have an option for getting induction at 39 weeks which I am not sure about manual induction. Opinions please if anyone else has experienced the same problems. I am just unsure what to do

birthday invites

We are having a birthday party on June 27 for my daughter who is turning 7. Her last day of school is June 5. Would this week (5/26-5/29) be too early to pass out invitations to her school friends?

Present for older sibling from the baby 👶🏼

I’m due 2 weeks tomorrow, and just wondered if anyone who’s having baby no.2 is getting a gift for their eldest child from the baby? And if so what are you getting? I feel like it would be a lovely thing to do, and my daughter would love it, I just don’t really know what to look for 🤣 so ideas are welcome ☺️
