Is anyone else struggling with low sugar?

I mentioned to my midwife I’ve been feeling lightheaded and dizzy at times and she thinks it’s my sugar levels. It’s feels like a daily struggle now and I’m having to constantly have at least 2 bottles of lucozade to make to through the day!

Keychains and Phone Charms

Hey guys! I started making these little keychains and phone charms and I’m loving them! I haven’t done it yet, but I’m thinking of adding my baby’s name to one🥹

Too late for C section?

Hey everyone, so I’m 39 weeks today and I’ve become really frightened about having a vaginal birth. I’m worried that I’ll panic when labour becomes painful because I have a very low pain tolerance. I don’t feel that I can cope with a vaginal birth the closer it’s getting and feel like I’d maybe like to request a planned C-section. Do you think this is still possible or have I left it too late? I feel as though I will panic so much I won’t be able to push and will end up having a c section anyway.

PP waxing

I’ve gotten Brazilian waxes for years and got one before delivery but had to have emergency c section and now at 4 weeks PP want another but am scared for my incision even tho it’s closed. Anyone have a cesarean and get regular waxes? How long after delivery? Also still bleeding a lot. I just find it so uncomfortable and want to do my regular wax!

Is there something you randomly think of and laugh while going to sleep?

I often think of my husbands work having them take professional pictures and for some reason they had him take off his glasses. What is this a passport? Because he had no glasses on his eyes looked sort of strange (being literally blind) and we are almost 100 percent sure whomever edited the picture flipped his eyes upside down lmao. I almost peed myself looking at the picture and because he doesn't know what he looks like with no glasses on he just thought he has really weird eyes lmao.

Moving House with Newborn

When you have just had a baby and you get a completion date to move house this Friday (baby will be 2 weeks 2 days). The only words are shattered and overwhelmed. Any one else done this before?😰

Doppler Scan, amniotic fluid levels at 36 weeks?

I had a doppler scan yesterday to track babies blood flow through cord, placenta and vital organs before 2nd growth scan next week. The sonographer didn't flag concern at amniotic fluid level being 6.1cm but I know the benchmark is usually 8+ for a normal amount and 5cm is considered low. I also know that the amniotic fluid level does drop later in pregnancy, but would you flag this to my consultant if it hasn't been flagged by sonographer?!
