First period after birth…

I’m 7 weeks pp today and think I’m starting my first period…
How bad is it going to be…? I’ve heard mixed reviews of your first period after having a baby and I’m a bit nervous to say the least😂

Whelp it’s been nice not having a period for the last 10/11 months!!😂

Nervousness and what’s normal!

Is anyone else always so unsure about when to call the midwife line for guidance?
I’ve been feeling a bit off recently and keep getting nervous around braxton hicks, discharge etc and not knowing whether I should call , but I feel like so much is normal and I don’t want to waste everyone’s time!
Currently suffering with a lot of pressure and ‘fuzziness’ in my head and ear, I mentioned it to my midwife yesterday and she said my blood pressure was fine but if it comes back and I’m concerned to call up the hospital midwife’s, but then I am just getting over a cold so I feel like I may be overreacting!

When do they schedule a c section for for a breech baby?

Hey so my baby has been breech for quite a few weeks now and still hasn’t turned I’m 35+2 today and having a scan at 36+4 next week to see, if baby is still breech will they schedule it in the diary then and also when do they tend to schedule it for? I had my daughter naturally at 39+5 so I’m assuming before this point?

Breathlessness at 6 weeks pregnant

Hi all!

Just looking for some advice. This past week I’ve struggled with my breathing, I have googled it and it does say it can be common to get out of breath easily. I do have a history of asthma but I haven’t struggled with it for years. It’s gradually got worse as the week has gone now, I’m struggling to sleep. Even just sat I am out of breath. I have made a doctor’s appointment today. I’ve also been getting lightheaded and dizziness.

I just wanted to see if anyone else has had anything similar?

Thanks ❤️

First movements?

I’m 18+3 and still haven’t felt anything, I have an anterior placenta and it’s my first pregnancy’s which I know takes longer but it just feels like it will never come and is making me anxious seeing everyone else have swirls and flutters earlier on than me
