Baby hospital bag

I think this should be everything I need but let me know if you think it’s missing anything important. I still need to wash the muslins and pack some readymade formula bottles (arriving from Amazon tomorrow!) Coming home outfit will be whatever they are wearing at the time of discharging us and we can take a cute announcement photo when we get home.

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 💞💞🎀!!!

3rd degree tears with first time birth, how did you second or third birth go?

Hi everyone,

I’m pregnant with my second baby and had a vaginal birth with a 3rd degree tear with my first baby. I’m trying to decide whether I should have a C-section this time or go for a vaginal birth.

Can everyone tell me what their experience has been? Did you have a better or worse experience? Did you get a third degree tear again?

Down there looks different, but c section not vaginal birth

This may be graphic but I need to paint a picture 😂

Prior to birth my inner labia were out and the outer labia appeared smaller. Since birth the inner labia are tucked back in (similar to when I was in my teens/early 20’s)

I can’t tell if my outer labia have just got bigger?

Has anyone else ever had anything like this?! I’d understand changes down there with a vaginal birth but I had emergency c section as I wasn’t dilating past 4cm. My birth was 2 weeks ago
