Baby super low

Does anyone else have a baby sitting so low you’re worried they’ll just pop out in an hour when you go into labor? I feel his kicks constantly right above my pubic bone.

I’m worried about a fast labor that won’t allow my body time to adjust and increase my risk of tearing 😭 a coworker of mine said she had the same thing and her labor was so fast but it was the most excruciatingly painful of all three of her kids.

SAME but this is my first so I have no idea what to expect. I’m 29 weeks today and she has constantly seemed super low. I may have placenta previa. I find out if it moved 9/9.
Do you have that too?

My first was super low and my second is too, for my first i did deliver quickly but I focused on my breathing and pushing and I didnt tear at all as for the pain I really cant remember, I had a lot of epidural so it was mostly like pushing out a slightly painful *stool* if you can take a couple swim classes or just float in a pool for a while and practice breathing evenly it helped a lot for me to mimic the same breathing technique used for floating.

It is wild to feel the kicks down down there. Hopefully that means it’ll be easier for us both, not more difficult.
Gosh, that sounds terrible. Hopefully you have an easier recovery and labor with this one 🙏🏻💛

C section

Im 5 weeks post C section & below my belly button feels numb and stinging, should I get checked?

36 weeks

Anyone else wake up feeling like they’ve been hit by a bus???

Every morning I’m so sore! My stomach feels crazy heavy, my arms and neck hurt, don’t even get me started on the back pain. I cannot do this for another 3 weeks 🥴😴🥱

Heart Shaped Uterus

I am 5 weeks 5 days and had an early scan this morning due to cramping last week. Everything on my scan looks exactly how it should and the consultant was happy. However she did mention I have a heart shaped uterus and implantation occured on my right. I asked what did that mean and she explained uterus has a slight drip which makes it heart shaped. She said it's nothing to worry about. I stupidly googled after the scan and read there is an increased risk of miscarriage etc. Does anyone have a heart shaped uterus/have positive stories?

Boy or girl? 🩷🩵

I've just had my 12 scan and I'm curious as to what people think the little one might be ☺️

I know you can look into the nub theory, so I'm curious if some of you can tell 🤨🤭

This is the clearest photo they could get due to previous C-section scar and baby just not playing ball today 😂🤦🏼‍♀️

First Birthday as a mother

Today was my first birthday as a mother, and I didn’t do anything. I didn’t go out, I didn’t get blackout drunk. I just stayed in the house with my son, and honestly, I’m okay with that.

This was the first year I actually wished for something, or at least the first year in a long time. There’s about 30 minutes left of my birthday, and it just has me thinking about how getting older changes the things you wish for, especially once you have children.

I’m grateful for my son because I genuinely might not have made it to this birthday without him. His name is August because I got pregnant with him in August of last year, between me and his father’s birthdays so that makes this time of year even more special to me.

This was a very eventful year. I learned a lot of lessons, and I’m thankful for all of them. Most of all, I’m thankful for my son.

Happy birthday to me. ❤️

(And yes, I did welcome my birthday at Chris Brown’s after party. I did see him lol. But for my actual birthday, I’m content with being with family.).

12 week scan

Hi ladies

Got my 12 week scan today, first pregnancy and very excited/ nervous.

What questions did you ask if any during the scan? I’ve elected for all screening to be done.
