Chair for partner

I'm getting induced on Saturday and we live 30 minutes drive from the hospital and neither me or my partner drive. I do not expect my partner to sleep on that tiny shitty plastic chair they'll have for him while I'm on the ward being induced.
Do you think the hospital would let me bring a chair like this in for him?
I am terrified of staying there the night on my own :/
Or is this just really pathetic of me 😅🤦🏻‍♀️

Does this scan look normal?

8 weeks today. Private scan. Healthy heartbeat and sonographer noted no concerns. I’ve worried myself that the babies head isn’t forming properly😩

What to pack for postpartum & the hospital?

Hey girls, new mum to be here 😅! Idk what else to pack for hospital or what else i’d need for hospital? I’m trying to be minimalistic and just bring what I actually need! I don’t live far from the hospital.
If anyone has done this before please let me know what you think and fill me in with your must have products 🩷🤗

Big baby?

Hi, has anyone had a similar experience to me?

I’ve been told my baby is on the bigger side. They were not worried about all measurements, but at 39 weeks his abdominal circumference (belly) is measuring on the 97th centile. They said they would recommend either induction or a C-section while his growth isn’t too excessive. His estimated overall growth is on the 86.6th centile, so he’s bigger than average but not considered extremely large he is 3,775g which was 38+5

I’m exactly 39 weeks tomorrow and will be seeing a consultant to discuss it. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? What did you decide to do, and how big was your baby (centile and birth weight)? Was it just the baby’s belly measuring large, or was the whole baby measuring big?

Also, does anyone know why only his belly would be measuring large while the rest of him isn’t?

Bloody show

No pictures don’t worry! I’m 39 weeks today and had a sweep this morning and went really well, 3cm dilated! I believe I just had my bloody show. Anyone got experience of having their bloody show then going into labour shortly after? Or did it take a couple of days? X

Mucus plug

Has anyone been to triage because they thought they'd lost their mucus plug?
I've just had quite thick jelly discharge in my underwear and I'm pretty sure it's my plug. I know it can regrow and isn't necessarily an issue but just wanted to see if anyone had been to triage and did they take it seriously?
The triage at my hospital hasn't been very friendly and I don't want to go for no reason

Second child name

This is hard guys 😕

We don't want something where it's just going to be shortened to a nickname ( seraphina would likely just be called Sera), not something too difficult to pronounce....

A few names we like

I like saphira

Aurora we both like

Rika

Kaylee

I think nova sounds pretty and is a nice short name.
