Baby turning head down.

Hey ladies! 👋 Just wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation. Has anyone's baby turned head down around 36 weeks? I'm there now and baby still hasn't flipped yet, so just feeling a little bit anxious about it. Would love to hear your experiences! 💛

37weeks 4 days - feeling unwell

Start of the week I had traces of protein in my urine & had 2 lots of bloods for preeclampsia, but today I’ve woken and I feel so wiped out. I have such a headache again it’s like the rooms spinning when I close my eyes, nausea, my belly hurts like poo cramping but I don’t need to go.

I’m fed up of going up there as they say just to rest which I’m doing but I feel so shit. My c section isn’t until the 16th but I feel so wiped. Apparently there’s no room to fit it next week so I have to try wait till then. I’m 3/5 engaged so hoping baby comes sooner but I know it might take a while. My first came at 39weeks so hoping this one comes early too.

35 weeks & struggling at just 4’11

This is my second full term pregnancy & I don’t remember running out of room so fast with my first. My first was a boy & I had gestational diabetes (managed okay with diet but ended up on insulin at 36 weeks). I am pregnant with a girl this go around with gestational diabetes (very well managed with diet) & an anterior placenta. It’s been a much different experience & one that’s made me decide I’m done having babies. I was so sick in the first trimester, ended up sick again in the middle of my second trimester to the point I had to stay a few hours in the ER getting IV fluids. She was weighing 4lbs 12oz at my 32 weeks ultrasound which my OB said is perfect - 80th percentile, I believe. I’m just so short & there’s NOWHERE for her to go. She kicks me in my ribs while simultaneously head butting my cervix. It’s almost painful when she kicks & I have terrible pelvic girdle pain. I’m stuck sleeping on my back with my pregnancy pillow wrapped around my sides to keep me in position because any other position puts my hips and pelvis in excruciating pain where I can’t even get out of bed without assistance. Anyway, I really just wanted to vent on here to fellow moms because my own mom and husband are probably tired of hearing about it. It’s been like this since 17ish weeks. 🥴

Pillow for babies

Hi mums

What do you all think of pillows for babies ?
My mum and SIL are talking about babies pillows , there are these pillows with a hole in the middle for the babies .
The argument is that the baby need it to form his head in a nice shape.
My baby is a c section Sophia head looks good.
I have tried the pillow few times and in my opinion the any dos not look comfortable with it. He does not fuss about it either.

Announcement to husband

Please can everyone share their story on how they announced the pregnancy to their husband/partner

I only found out this morning, this will be my second baby. I couldn’t wait to tell my husband when I first got pregnant, so this time I want to wait for the right moment and surprise him.

Also, there was something really special about no one else knowing 🩵🩷
