Early private scan

I have a scan booked next week when I’ll be 6+4. We go on holiday for 2 weeks the following day and I wanted to see the heartbeat before we go for reassurance so I can hopefully feel happy and relaxed on holiday. However I’m aware we may not see one yet. With my son we saw one at that gestation but not sure if that was unusual or not? What are peoples experiences? I feel these early weeks are absolutely dragging this time and I’m so anxious 😫🤦🏼‍♀️

C section tomorrow

Having my c section tomorrow at 39+5.
Due to go in for 7:15 then I’m no 3 out of 3 ladies to go down.

I’m absolutely petrified can anyone give me some positive experience examples 🤣.

Obviously can’t wait to meet baby girl but the rest of it is giving me the fear 🤦🏻‍♀️

Abdomen pain

Hi, i was at the midwife yesterday and shes sent my urine off due to the results been inconclusive. However iv woken up this morning with pain in my right lower abdomen that doesn’t go away even when sat down, i don’t really feel like eating and i feel like i need a wee every 5 minutes.

Im just looking for some advice should i ring my GP, my midwife or leave it and see how i get on

Nausea remedies

I am about 7 weeks pregnant and have been bed ridden for about 2 weeks. Constantly being sick, feel nauseous all day, can’t do much and don’t feel comfortable going anywhere because sickness is unpredictable. Increasingly just becoming so bored and getting fed up of this as someone who is normally very active and would go to the gym etc. Any suggestions to help the nausea and stay sane? 🫩

Who do we contact?!

This may be stupid question but im feeling completely lost and frustrated 😤😂

Im currently 6w and had two previous miscarriages. Obviously im very anxious and every little detail/symptom is being over analised a million times because what else do i have to do 🙄

But for example yesterday i believed i had some spotting which sent me into a tiny, slightly over the top meltdown to which i messaged my GP asking to be seen the following day for reassurance ect, to which they messaged saying i should go to A&E to be refered to the EPAC. So i though F-that as last time i waited over 15 hours to be seen as i was sent to the wrong department and they 'couldnt find me' like i was some strange anonymy. So i called EPAC and they said i need a referal from my GP (screams internally). Which i said my GP said they cannot refer me and basically wont do anything to do with pregnancy so what do i do? She said well it isnt an emergency im sure everything will be okay 🤭 so my question is who TF do we call/contact or whatever in these scenarios because im at a loss and quietly lossing my marbles. I mean even just bringing me in to talk about my concerns would of been better then told 'im sure itll be okay'. Right okay then 👍

Help an emotionally unstable girl out 😂

No symptoms/bump has shrunk?!

I’m 17+5 and my bump has shrunk (I didn’t know this could happen?!) I have zero symptoms and I can’t feel movement (never have). I’m really panicking but I can’t get a reassurance scan anywhere. Is this normal??

34 weeks tomorrow and struggling

Hiya, just wondering if anyone else is finding it more and more exhausting as they go through their pregnancy? I feel like with my last pregnancy I didn’t struggle this much and I had twins last time around! They’re now toddlers so I guess I’m finding it hard running around free them but just feel like I have no motivation and just breathless constantly.
