We're still cooking over here, but we only 32+2

Currently 34 weeks 5 days in the hospital and just found out my marginal cord insertion has restricted some growth so he will be induced and coming early around 36-38 weeks as long as my check ups go well he will stay in until than but August baby has turned July 😭at the very least pack that bag

Had her on June 16th at 32weeks 4days, she was due August 7th

Not yet but I've had a feeling this one will come earlyyy

I’ve been thinking about it. Been having a few real contractions each day. Who knows?

Recliner chair for recovery

Is anyone who is having a c section considering getting a recliner chair or had one for recovery? I keep hearing that it would help in the first week of the section in terms of recovery and not having to use your stomach muscles as much than if you were lying flat at bedtime. Any thoughts?

What percentile would this be (red dot)? Can't remember how to read the chart lol

Is anyone good with growth charts and can tell me what percentile I am measuring at? This was 28+2 weeks, and the midwife never told me, it's not mentioned in my notes like last pregnancy and I don't use AI lol

Re-ultrasound

Did anyone attend their 20 week scan and end up going for a second scan? I’ve been send to the maternity day assessment unit for a 2nd scan 3 weeks after my original they told me everything was fine just to re check his heart as he was in an awkward position. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

C section on hairline

I just had a look at my C Section scar in the mirror for the first time (yes I was scared out my mind) the scar is right at my hairline. That means I have to shave right on top of the scar. Anyone else? :-(

Increased discharge

I’m 33+2 and have noticed increased discharge the last couple of days.

This morning on school run I felt lots of dampness in my underwear, to the point that the skin between the top of my thighs felt damp!

I’m sure it’s discharge as it doesn’t smell like amniotic fluid and I haven’t had any more ‘gushes’ in the 2 hours since.

Has anyone else had this?
