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.

Am I missing anything

🇬🇧From the UK 🇬🇧 I’m 22 weeks and I’m trying to help my overthinking brain by working out what I want to take to hospital with me. This is just things for me, baby and dad will come after! Am I missing anything, anything you have had recommended to you that isn’t on this list?

I know makeup/skincare are not necessary but it will just make me feel better if I want to spruce myself up a little!

Name too close to sibling?

We have a son Henry and am pregnant with a girl. Super stuck for names.
We both love Harriet but know it will get shortened to Harri. Is this too close to Henry? Henry and Harri.
Other name we both like is Matilda but I don’t like Madi ahhh!

Sex after C-Section

I’m currently 3 weeks pp with baby number 2 and it was my first c-section. I brought up the topic of sex yesterday to my partner as I feel quite nervous for the unknown, he gave me a lot of reassurance, no pressure and comfort during this conversation for when the time comes we do have sex, I feel completely secure and know I can take my time.

What was the first time having sex like after your c-section?
Is there any certain positions or things you used/did to make it more enjoyable or comfortable?
How/where are you having sex with 2 kids?

Any advice is appreciated🩵

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

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?
