I think I may be pregnant.

So, I've been experiencing a lot of pregnancy symptoms for the past 3 weeks or so. I took 2 pregnancy tests, and they were both negative. So I don't know what to think. But Chatgpt said it was two soon for the tests. So I don't know. I'm just confused and have a lot of mixed emotions. My best friend thinks I am pregnant, however. I'm getting all the symptoms I got when I was pregnant with my son, tho. But I think I'd just wait for my cycle, and if it doesn't come, that'll let me know if I am. What do you think, tho?

C Section Advice

Hi! Our baby is breech, and we just tried an ECV which was unsuccessful at 37 weeks. Our c section is scheduled for June 25. Moms who have had c sections- how can I prepare? Should I get a binder for afterwards? Any tips on how to best care for myself and baby would be so appreciated!

Overhang above C-section scar

Can anyone give me tips on how to get rid of overhang? I had an emergency C-section 23 weeks ago.

Do you like driving when it’s dark?

When I was much younger, I loved late night drives. But as I’ve gotten older, I can barely see lol that 20/20 bison suddenly left me lol and I just hate driving at night now. Now, I just let my man do all the driving 😂.

Do yall feel the same or you love driving at night?

Terrified of ripping down there..

I’m considering a C-section for a few reasons including PGP. But amongst a few of the major reasons are i’m afraid of ripping or messing up my vagina. I’ve heard some women say months after birth they’re still scared to look down there or that they took a mirror and looked one day and had a major jump scare 😰😱 It’s just the extra healing time, the complications i would have with post surgery pain management from medication i’m already on, and the added risk of a major surgery, plus a lot of benefits i would lose for myself and baby by not having a natural birth.. Does anyone have anything to add? 🙏

If you chose to have an elective c section, are you happy you had it?

Don’t mean planned/recommended c sections for breech babies etc, I mean if you chose to have a c section purely because you wanted one.

Totally believe every woman should chose how to give birth but curious to see who is happy they made that decision and who perhaps regretted it.

I was booked to have an elective with my second due to my first being a traumatic vaginal birth and wanting to avoid the trauma a second time. In hindsight I always wished my first birth had been an elective c section because it was so horrendous but my second birth ended up being a positive vaginal birth and I’m glad I ended up not having the elective because my recovery from my second birth was very smooth.
