Membrane sweep

If you had a membrane sweep done did it work? If so how long did it take and how effaced, dilated and your station when you had it done?

With my first I was 3cm and 75% effaced and 38 weeks when I got my sweep. I went into labor that night, 12 hours later. This pregnancy at 37 weeks I was only 50% effaced and 1.5 cm and got a sweep and that was Tuesday morning, and I’ve had major contractions 4-5min apart since yesterday but not dilating more than 2 cm so they sent me back home from the hospital 🤷‍♀️

I went into labor same day that night. I was already 4cm, +1 station going into the office. Had minor spotting afterwards and labor started that night.

Can you see it?

I’m due on today but nothing and just had a feeling to test and I swear I can see a very faint line. Will wait a couple of days and use a clear blue test x

C section and hospital stay in uk

Hello!
Looking for stories from mothers who had c sections before.
I have my C section booked (due to 2 health risks).
What will it be like? How many nights did you have to stay in the hospital? What was the whole experience like?
My husband and i are trying to figure out if he should take days off from work. But i believe there is no need if me and the baby will be there for observation? He thinks the baby will be with me in the room all the time and he would have to help me with the baby. Where as i think the baby will be kept in the nursery (but i do hope he would actually stay with me in the room) and the nurses would be around to help when needed, therefore there wouldn't be a need for him to be with me at the hospital continuously. He also thinks he would have to stay with me there overnight 🙈
1st time staying in a hospital in uk too 🙈. This is all very new for us.

When did you start leaving the house ?

Im curious how long it took everyone to leave the house after giving birth?

Whenever people asked how old my daughter was they always say " wow i would still be home recovering "

I had natural births with both 1 unledicated and 1 with gas and air i had a 3rd dagree tear with my first and a 2nd with my 2nd child and had stitches with both

With both kids i was out and about the day after as i just hated being home but everyone just always seemed so suprised but i imagine im not the only one ? 😅

Updated due date - new to February 2027 group!

Just had my first ultrasound! Thought I was about 8w2d based on my LMP but measuring 7w1d - my due date changed from Jan 26 to Feb 2. Doctor isn’t worried and said we likely caught it extremely early and that I probably ovulated late. She captured a normal heart rate and saw the yolk sack, fetal pole and the embryo along the bottom. Next ultrasound is at 11-12 weeks. Cant help but to be a little worried that I’m measuring “behind” but am grateful for getting this far and seeing baby with a heartbeat. Anyone else in a similar boat?

Holding breathe whilst crying & lips turning blue

Hey ladies

Has anyone’s 14 month old cried to the point they don’t get their breath and lips go blue it’s happened twice - I took her to the doctors today and they’ve told me if it happens again to call 999 and take her hospital
He also said it’s common

She’s been referred to paediatrics by GP

If you have any advice please let me know 🫶🏻
