Pregnancy exhaustion

Hi everyone. I’m coming up to 12 weeks pregnant and I’m just so tired all the time. The heatwave isn’t helping but I wondered how long everyone else experienced it for or has any tips to get through. It’s my first pregnancy

I had this too, like severe exhaustion couldnt keep my eyes open. Luckily my husband was very supportive and just did everything whilst I slept, I wouldn't fight it, sleep as much as you can ☺️

Overdoing it or no? ( C section )

Today I walked around two shops, for about an hour and a half, with my partner doing the food shop and I am now aching and I feel shattered. I’m bleeding still anyway, but I just ache. Is this normal?

I had my second elective c section 3 and a half weeks ago, I’ve taken paracetamol and am now resting but I just feel wiped out.

Advice!!!!

Hey mamas! I had my first baby last October by C-Section after getting induced, starting labor, and him still not dropping 24 hours later. I’d like advice based on y’all’s experiences, so I can make a solid decision. That being said, I know I’d like to have a second baby and I do not plan on getting induced again. What I would like to do personally, because I think it would be safest for my body and my next baby, is to schedule another c-section. The only reason I’m scared of doing this is in case I go into labor before the scheduled c-section, what do I do in that case? Can they still just do my scheduled c-section early? Should I try and have it natural again if labor does come early? I just had a lot of things happen with my last labor that I don’t want for my next baby or myself. They also had trouble keeping his heart rate on the belly monitor because he was moving so much, so THREE different times they screwed screws into my baby’s head to monitor his heart rate(which he still has scars from) which I was not aware was the case. Anyways, I’m sorry for the long post, but would appreciate hearing y’all’s point of view and advice.

Thanks, lots of love💕

Contractions? Heads engaged? I’m confused

I’ve been feeling cramp like pains since the morning they come and go but they’re more like period pains. Or before you start your period. I keep needing the toilet for a no1 and 2 but I don’t know if this is early labour or baby’s head engaging? Also the fluid coming out of me smells like vinegar. It’s not a lot so it’s not my water breaking but it’s strange. Does anyone know what’s going on cause I’m so confused and it’s stressing me out 😣

Early scan🙃

Well had the scan, they said there’s a yolk sac and it does look like a pregnancy but it’s more like 5 weeks rather than the 7 weeks that I was expecting so they’ve booked me in again in 3 and a half weeks to see if they can see something because at the moment they said it’s too early and they can’t really see anything, is this normal? I’m now overthinking everything🫢
