Pain - 5 weeks since 2nd c section

Under my belly button, my lower belly and to the right side is so painful. I saw a GP who sent through for an urgent scan however it can take 2-3 weeks still.

Today I’ve stayed in bed all day and rested and the pain is still bad. It’s like a sharp, burning pain and it feels like my whole belly is being dragged down.

I feel like I have to grip onto something or sit because of it. Has anyone else had this? I’m so so bloated as well. My scar seems to be healing well, it’s internal and I’m worried with how bad the pain is getting.

Hi that's the same area that was really hurting when I had mine I think it's when they do the c section and stretch the skin but it takes time to get better I had a scan and internal scar was ok. Im 6 moths pp and little but still sore in that same area

4d scan with anterior placenta.

Had our 4d scan and I can’t cope with the pictures we got this time 🥺 this is baby number 3 (surprise gender) and the best pictures we have had so far with all my pregnancies.

Still find it absolutely crazy that there’s a whole little person inside me 🥹

C section advice

Hey mums , I have a planned c section for next Friday but I was wondering if you went early and got an emergency section, How soon did you go from labour to getting the emergency section?

And if you did get an emergency was everyone rushing about? 🥺

It’s my biggest fear. 😧 had a planned section for my first and it was such a great experience I’m worried this will be different and I don’t get my section 😭

12 week scan

I had my scan, midwife said everything looks okay but their mouth looks a bit funny to me? It looks like they have an underbite or whatever. Is this normal?

Does this look normal?

I don’t quite remember what the sac looked like from other angles, but do you think this looks normal? Baby seems a little tight in there with little amniotic fluid surrounding. I’m 12 weeks.

Struggling at work

Is anyone else really struggling at work?

I work in an office job. I work from home a couple of days and from the office a couple of days but I just find in teams meetings I am really uncomfortable. I can’t concentrate on them. I can’t sit comfortably on my chair and listen to the conversation and I can’t properly input the meetings and then when I do I just get rid of hot and go red and then feel really embarrassed about it as well.

I’m only 28 weeks so we’ve got another 10 weeks to go before I finish and I just don’t know how I’ll manage that.

anyone else being in a similar situation?
