Horrendous heartburn and sickness

Just sat up in bed right now after a heartburn disaster, I’m 36+5 and been having it for a week or two now, always have a small sip of gaviscon before bed but tonight it didn’t work. Woke up didn’t feel good, (luckily I keep a bowl by my bed due to hyperemesis)
Still tried to get to the toilet in time but I didn’t make it and it’s the first time heartburn has actually made me physically sick and it was so much worse then any of my HG sickness as it felt like pure fire.
Partner came and rescued me with my rennies and a cold glass of water and getting me off the bathroom floor of course

But now I’m scared to lay down in bed incase it happens again

Failed sweep now cramping

I had an attempt at a sweep yesterday afternoon but my cervix was fully closed so midwife couldn’t perform it.

Since then I’ve been very crampy. Does cramping mean the cervix is softening?

Has anyone has a failed sweep that lead to cramping that turned into spontaneous labour?

Balance postpartum

I’m almost 1 year postpartum and I’m still struggling to get my balance fully aligned like i still can’t walk properly without it feeling uncomfortable on my hips and lower back or going all wobbly, I never had this problem before late pregnancy. My passion before I had my little one was dancing and I expect it’s going to be so much harder to get back into. I try and be as active as possible with my baby to get out of my imbalance but nothing really seems to be working. I’m wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this or has any advice?
