Sciatica

Did anyone get sciatica after having c section? I had severe back pain whilst pregnant but was managed with chiropractor. Now I’ve come down with the same area of pain but worse to the point I was bed bound and it’s getting hard to lift my child. Just wondering if this was a common thing and what did you guys do to help?

I’ve seen some videos where it’s got nothing to do with the c section and it all comes down to lifestyle choices🙄

What is this?!

Someone has to know I’m going crazy!

The staff room at work had these little cookie cake type things and they tasted so good, like marzipan! They’re little flower shapes but I can’t seem to find them online and no one in the building knows where they came from apparently 😫😫😫

C section

Growth Scan problems

Hiii growth scan today and just want to know everyone's opinions as ive left upset and feel like i dont know how worried to be!! Im 35weeks plus 1 and baby is now breach they've said they are worried about his growth and im now on weekly scans as he looks around 5lbs is this really small or??? Worried for baby and had planned to do a natural birth so its all just knocked me back a bit

They've basically told me the only option is a c section at 38/39 weeks unless he moves on his own

I’m being emergency induced at 39+4 weeks pregnant for the size of my babies head 🤣

So his head is on the larger side, has been for weeks. I’ve been told if he stays inside cooking, it could get even bigger. His head isn’t and probably won’t engage to start natural labour because it’s so big 🤣 I just feel like…that’s an absolute hilarious thing to tell him when he’s older hahaha and I feel very immature about it. He’s completely healthy otherwise.

Anyway, they did say it could end in a c-section because it might get stuck or completely tear me to shreds, which I’m more scared of a c-section which is why I’ve opted for the induction, has this ever happened to anyone else? My first was easy, I had no issues whatsoever. This one seems a lot scarier 🥲 not to mention my family aren’t supporting me as much as they were before they knew I was being induced, my SIL is due via c-section on 1st September, and they’ve all been saying how my son will be born on the same day as him or after, but now that he’s coming this week…they have been distant and their energy has switched up massively. No excitement, no joy, like nothing they would usually be saying/doing. Almost like I’ve just told them the weather and they’ve nodded along and said oh….

Was very excited

Got to see my son yesterday made me cry because I know this handsome lil
Man is going to bring joy to my heart again I can’t wait to meet him n hold him .

Growth scans - anyone else had a similar situation?

I had a growth scan at 33 weeks because baby had flat lined and basically not grown. At the scan we were told baby was a perfectly average size and nothing to worry about. At 37 weeks I was measuring 35.5 which they said was okay. 2 weeks later (Today) I was measuring 34. So she’s gone down on the graph and it looks quite concerning, considering I’m now 39 weeks. She hasn’t moved position since last time, so it’s not like it could be based on how she’s laying. I wouldn’t normally be too worried because her size was completely fine last time. But for the past week or so I’ve noticed her movements haven’t been as often. I’ve been too scared to go to triage, I had a really bad experience at 18 weeks, the midwife made me cry and made me feel like an idiot. Now I’m kicking myself, wishing I did just go just incase, because If her growth has actually stopped and it could have been caught sooner, it would be my fault. Has anyone else measured small this late on? Due next week. I hate the wait🥲waiting to get the call to book the scan in
