Braxton hicks - uncomfortable!

Is anyone else like oh wow this is uncomfortable when you get Braxton hicks. Like I get them once every few days but when I do I’m like… wow! Imagine what contractions are like?! If this is a ‘warm up’. Anyone else? Haha.

Compression socks after c section

How long after C section did you take your compression socks off? I had a 10 day course of injections which I have now just completed an hour ago. Am I able to take the stockings off and leave them off now?

My midwives when discharging me from the hospital did not tell me anything about it and I can’t remember from my first as it was 3.5 years ago

Can anyone recommend a cake recipe for a 6 month old?

My baby is 6 months next month & for his photo shoot id like to make him some cupcakes which look good for the photos & taste good to baby and adult.
I have the moon and rue weaning book and that has a cake recipe but it’s saying it’s for 1 year old
Thank you!

Multiple c sections

I’ve had 2 emergency c sections. 1 in 2019 and 1 in 2023 and now that my daughter is almost 3 I’m thinking a lot about having a third but the only thing holding me back is the fear of a third c section. Can anyone who has had multiple c sections share your experience? Or has anyone had a successful VBAC after more than 1 c section?

Anyone else had this after second child ??

I had my second elective c section 20 days ago. I’ve been on antibiotics for 5 days, 2 days left, and when I went to the GP today I have bacteria in my urine, and also she saw how red the external of my vagina is. She also said the catheter has ‘damaged’ my urethra as it’s still inflamed, red, swollen and I do have pain in it.

She sent my urine off due to the bacteria and also took a vaginal swab.

Has anyone else had these symptoms after their babies? What did you have in the end?
