10th Centile at 28+4

I had my midwife appt yesterday and she measured my bump, she plotted it as over the 100th centile (my bump is a lot bigger in this pregnancy compared to my first) anyway she felt my tummy and she said ‘baby feels really big’ so she referred me for a growth scan the same day.

I went to the scan and it’s now showing my baby is on the 10th centile… is this something to be worried about? I never had this with my daughter so I can’t help but worry that he isn’t growing as he should be🥺 has anyone else had this?

3rd degree tear…what to do now?

I had a 3rd degree tear with 6 litres of blood loss with my first. I have fully recovered. I’m pregnant with my second and terrified to give birth at my nearest hospital as the care has been atrocious. My neighbour knows someone who died last month giving birth there. I’m being told NOT to have a home birth but I’m sh** scared to give birth at this hospital. Anyone had a third degree tear then had a home birth?

Positive back-to-back (occipito-posterior) stories

Ladies, I need to hear your positive stories please. Today is my due date and I've just had a scan and been told that baby is in a back-to-back position.

I have tried to look for positive birth stories but all I can find are horror ones about how bad the pain is!

My first baby was a lengthy 5 day induction followed by sepsis and an emergency section which took my body so long to recover from.

I feel a bit wounded that I don't think I will have a positive story to reflect back on.

I have been scheduled for a c section on Monday if baby isn't already here, but I'm now considering pulling it forward.

Please let me know your thoughts 💕

Baby boy is here!!

He is 7lbs 3 ounces! I was due July 5th and he came today July 8th at 6:45 am 🥰

Birthing options

Hi I was wondering if I could get some advice on what birthing option to go for
I’m wanting to know as much as possible on a vaginal birth and a c section, so I can make a informed decision
I faint when in pain or too hot which is why I’m undecided and obviously want to go for the safest option

36 week scan baby still transverse 😭 anyone else??

Anyone else same position ?? Second baby and she’s transverse just like my first born but I had an ecv with him but don’t want it again. Consultants told me I won’t have a section till 39 weeks surely this is such high risk with second pregnancy and risk of pro cord lapse ???!!! And he said second baby’s often turn at 37 weeks… At my scan she went transverse to head down back to transverse so I don’t trust she will stay there so have said opt me in for section just incase but going to be 3 weeks of anxiety incase labour happens😭😭
