Hey everybody☺️💞!!

A mom here really needs help. I tried to look to see if they have any groups for moms that are due in September and there is no groups so I really don’t know where to put this besides here I really need help I am 25 weeks pregnant rn with a baby girl she is breech do anybody have any tips on how I can get her in the right position because I had got rushed to the hospital the other day and I had asked the doctor or the nurse what would happen if she doesn’t go in the right position and they basically told me told me if she is not turned by time I make 29 weeks It is most likely that I will have to have a cesarean section (C-section) so I'm hoping and fucking praying this little girl turn the proper way I never had a breech baby before so I really don’t know what to do to help her get in the right position like I’m really stuck right now 💞💞🎀!!!

Weird that they said from 29 weeks. My boy was breech until 36 weeks. He went head down then. How bizarre.

Theres lots of exercises you can do on a birthing ball to help babies turn xx

Basically your lucky they seen that and are aware but from now to then she can move out and back it my son was breeched and moved and I went in at 3pm and he was good by the time it was time to push he was breeched again so dont stress to much about her moving now

Most hospitals will say it doesn't matter until after 36 weeks. Babies move so much, twist, turn, head down, bum down. After 36 weeks it is generally a bit harder for them to turn so freely. Also, most hospitals will offer you something called an ECV where they try to turn baby into a head down position through your belly by pushing and massaging. So you won't be forced to have a c-section unless it is your choice. You can also still have a vaginal delivery with a breech baby, it isn't very common anymore but it is still possible. Try not to worry yet. There is a website called spinning babies, super helpful for positions to try to turn baby naturally. Good luck xx

Doula Experiences

Hello! I was wondering if people wouldn’t mind sharing their experiences of working with a doula?

I love the idea, especially as a first time mum who wants a natural birth, but worry I’m just getting caught up in something that’s becoming more popular.

Thanks! 🙏🏼

20 week scan

Ive heard multiple things but do we need to have a full bladder at this stage for the scan x

Always tiered

Ladys im always tiered no matter how much sleep i try to get, i know i have the kids and i do everything normal i go to sleep tiered i wake up tiered when the kids are at school i sometimes sleep and its driving me mad any advise the doctor said everything is fine no low iron or anything just try and rest but no matter how much i try to rest i never can feel energised

Just need to let it out

So today is my birthday and I worked third shift. when my coworkers came in it was like 5 AM 6 AM so still today and none of them said happy birthday. I was like whatever you know we have a lot going on like I get it like we’re busy like and I just was like I was a little hurt but like I let it go. I’m not really someone who will go and be like hey it’s my birthday! I just didn’t really say anything and then a different coworker that wasn’t in until later on in the day texted our group chat, saying happy birthday to me and then everyone chimed in. I’m working third shift again so I’m here now and when I came in there was just a gift bag left in the office with a card for me and stuff and I don’t know… I’m kind of hurt. I’m not trying to be ungrateful, but it feels like they’re trying to play it off that they didn’t forget my birthday and I would rather they just own it and be like hey I’m sorry like I have a lot going on and it just slipped my mind because them pretending like they didn’t forget just makes it feel like they’re playing me for stupid. this isn’t like some big like job or anything like I just work at a gas station but we’re all pretty close so I think that’s also why it hurts and like I wasn’t expecting gifts or anything but like even just happy birthday you know. So I just feel insulted and hurt. I already have so much going on and they all already know this so I think they are worried about making me feel worse than I have been but them pretending does make me feel worse..

How many weeks where you ?

How many weeks where you when you got your c section?

My 1st i was 40 weeks
2nd was 38+3
3rd was 37+4

Im hoping they give me another 37 weekend lol

UK mums…

How many appointments have you had so far with your midwife? Not including scans and glucose tests and stuff. Just general midwife appointments.
I’m 27 weeks tomorrow and I’ve only had 1 and I can’t help but think that’s not right?? I’ve been trying to get in touch with my midwife because I’ve been told I need to book my next one for 28 weeks and for some reason I can’t get in touch with her at all!!

I’ve spoken to my doctors who keep bouncing me around different people/phone numbers. I’ve spoken to the midwifery team at the hospital who have told me that Im definitely on her books still but she should have chased me up right now and that all they can do is suggest I keep trying the GP…. So really I’m a bit lost 😐

Second pregnancy and I swear I’d had at least 5 by this point last time!!
