Episiotomy pain

Has anyone had an episiotomy and found sex really painful since? I don’t know if this is normal or if I need to go to the doctors about it? 🫣

Yes! Nearly 5 months pp and have gave up with sex because it was too painful, currently waiting to see a doctor from what I’ve seen it’s common but can have other issues

Have you had it checked to see if it’s healed nicely? At my 8 week check the GP moved onto the babies vaccines and I had to request for her to have a look.

Try different positions to see how it feels. For me certain ways are unbelievably painful and other ways I can’t feel a thing. X

Ct scans on baby’s 🩺🩻

My child is only 7 weeks old and at a toddler group a child decided to come and kick my child in the head

Since then we have been in the A&E department

I wanted to know if anyone else has gone through this or have had to give their kids CT scans and how you felt about the situation or radiation that comes with it

Would help my anxiety currently 🙏🫶🏻🩻

Measuring large

What’s everyone experience with measuring larger? To put things into perspective every scan I’ve had I’ve been measuring larger and the follow up appointments with my midwife id just get told that baby had likely just had a growth spurt early… my first time being measured fundally at my midwife appointment I was measuring 2 weeks ahead and was told the same again. Second time I was measuring on time but baby was back to back with me and at my last appointment last week I’m measuring 3 weeks ahead at 37cm (37 weeks). Now been booked in for a glucose test but never had any glucose in my urine, I’ve also tested my blood sugar the whole pregnancy and it’s never had any unusual spikes. I’ve always thought I looked much larger than other women and constantly getting “you’re huge” comments. Anxious for my scan on Monday, and wondered what others outcomes were… did it end up meaning anything? Did you end up needing to be induced? I’ve noticed my bump has dropped quite a bit and the pelvic pain is insane at the moment, pain takes my breath away. This is my first baby so I’m just curious what this means, do I need to prepared for an early arrival? Help 😂😭

I need help!😂

So today I found out that I’m having another baby girl. I’m posting as incognito as I haven’t had my gender reveal yet (I wanted to find out first before I celebrated with my family) with my first daughter I didn’t find it this hard to choose a name.
My daughter’s name is Darcie so I need girl names that suit her name if that makes sense. I’m not fussed if it doesn’t start with a “D” or end in “ie”🩷

Any suggestions are appreciated, thank you🥰

Second pregnancy feeling exhausted

Just wana see if anyone else is going through the same, this is my second baby I’m pregnant with and I have a 2 year old. This pregnancy has flawed me, I literally have no energy and I’m so tired. I feel so guilty not doing much with my 2 year old but I just don’t have the energy😩 she does go to nursery and my family take her swimming etc but like today I have her on my own and I don’t have the energy to take her out
