Lower abdomen light pain at 8 weeks

Is this normal ? I never had any pain or discomfort after vaginal delivery and recovery was smooth with an episectomy and 2 degree tear. Now it’s lightly hurting

i’m curious how far along do i look?
i can’t help but search up videos of other women and their bumps in the same week i’m in and i keep feeling extremely different 🥲
some days i feel like i don’t look pregnant yet, some days i feel too big

Due date

Has anyone had their baby around the 37 week mark? If so, was everything ok with you and baby? Was baby still a healthy weight?

I’m asking because my due date is July 18th but everyone keeps saying I’ll go earlier than that. This is my second baby and I was just curious :)

Partner and baby moving

Just wondering if anyone else’s partner is like this.
Every time I say the baby is moving and want him to look or feel he’s so distant. He says he just doesn’t understand the fascination, as it’s not in him.

He’s been amazing in terms of how he sees his job as caring for me. Which he does, but he doesn’t seem as phased as I am about baby moving. 🤷🏼‍♀️
Am I reading into this too much? I’m almost 25 weeks.

Elective C Section

For those of you having elective C sections, how far in advance did you get your dates and how? Was it a phone call/text message or just an appointment on badger notes?

Also bonus if it’s the Somerset area!

Normal bleeding ?

Had C section 15th of May and stopped bleeding 2 weeks after but then it’s started again but it’s starting and stopping and was a dark brown until today and now it’s kinda went a pinky red colour I don’t remember this happening with my first section and I’ve been to the doctors twice now and they keep saying it’s fine but can’t tell me why it’s happening
