Placenta

I had my 20weeks scan on the 7th August but she didn’t tell me what kind off placenta I’ve got! Is there a report I can read? Because I don’t see my midwife untilll the 7th off September 🙄

I’d assume if she didn’t say anything that it’s posterior and in a normal position ☺️ I had anterior with my first, and this one is posterior but low lying, and both times they told me. But it’s probably recorded in your notes so you could ring midwife to ask?

Mine didn't mention anything till I asked. But it's potentially in your pregnancy notes xx

I was given the print out of the scan details and it says it on there. If you have electronic notes I'd imagine you can view the scan details on there maybe

I was also given a print of my scan details and it was on there. I was also told during the scan. The print off also told me the babies measurements and what percentile each measurement was. You should ask a copy. It's also on my badger notes.

After I gave birth I have things bulging out of my vagina ! My doctor said it’s normal most women that have birth vaginas look like that but she recommended I do some kegel exercises and not worry about it , but I can’t help it

Did u have the same experience?

4lb baby

I’m due to have a planned c-section at 38+1 due to intrauterine growth restriction (I’ve had many complications with my placenta but luckily he’s managed to hold on in there until 38 weeks!) however my placenta is worsening and he’s dropped to the 2nd centile and his weight is currently only 3.9lb (I know their measurements can be off).

I’m wanting to know if anyone has had a teeny tiny but full term baby and whether they needed extra support in the hospital? My understanding is he may need help with his feeding & body temp - I’m hoping not breathing. I’ve been warned he may need an NG tube. I’m very open to all of this support but would just like to hear if other people have been in this position and if so, what did it look like for you & how long were you in the hospital for? 👶🏼

Not much movement

I’m 27 weeks tomorrow and I’ve not felt much movement since Sunday. I have an anterior placenta so I just keep thinking he’s tucked himself back up behind my placenta again and I’ve just been incredibly lucky the last two weeks to have felt him kicking me and tapping me back after I prod him and playing little games.
The only way I can explain the movements is like muscle spasms a few times a day and then l have idea how to explain the pressure or sensation just above my pubic bone.
Do you think I should go to the hospital?

Hospital bag…

I’m 32 weeks today and starting to get my head around packing a hospital bag ready again… where has the time gone!
My son is 20 months, so I should remember everything I packed the last time, but my mind is pretty much blank… I’m guessing baby brain!
Any ideas or top packs? I know the one thing I was thankful for was my hand held fan. (Hoping if things go to plan, it will be a planned C section again due to my health conditions.)
