Elective C Sections

Anyone else due in August planning an elective csection? I just had an appointment with the csection specialist to make sure I was making an informed decison. While she said I won't get a date booked in until around week 36/37, she said its likely it will be the 18th, 19th or 20th August. I'm due the 21st! That shocked me a bit as I assumed it wouls be the week before (10th to 14th). Worries about going into labour naturally before then 😬 Anyone else in similar boat? Or do your hospitals do them earlier? She said they follow the WHO guidance and won't take babies out before rhe 39th week.

Labour ?

I’m 39 weeks, and all day I have been in severe pain mainly when I stand up, and constant lighting crotch, tmi diarrhoea and been losing excessive mucus plug over the last 2 days.

The other day I had mild contractions for nearly an hour 9mins break in between 40 second contractions.

I’m not getting intervals it’s constant and waters haven’t broke. Am I in labour or does anyone else know what could be happening ?

I had a sweep on Monday, and get induced this Saturday.

Anyones child been referred to hospital specialist over clicky hips?

My little girl is 4 weeks old, when she was being checked over at birth, the nurse said she had quite clicky hips and that it should be checked to be on the safe side. I've received the referral letter but I was wondering if anyone else has been through it?

Just wondering what to expect x

Thank you

Driving after c-section

When do you plan to drive again?

I read it’s recommended to wait 4-6 weeks. I’m 4 weeks PP on Monday and feel ready to drive again. I waited 6 weeks with my first but I’m demented without my car plus a toddler!
