Help/advice FTM

Hello!
Just wondering, did anyone else experience bad tightening and pelvic pressure specifically at night times? When baby is active and I’m just laying in bed?
I’m 36wks tomorrow, have mentioned it to my midwife at the appointment today, she said it could be my pelvic girdle pain but it just feels a bit different to that..

🗓️ 1st birthday party!…

my son doesn’t really have any baby friends. I’m hoping to make friends with some mums so they could come to his first birthday party with their babies in October… Cake toys games and music… I just want to make it a special day for him so he can have some buddies.. 💞

Overdone it or something else?

Just wondering if anyone has been through this as the GP didn’t really know what to suggest. My abdomen is achey all the time (above my scar) and I have a winded feeling. It’s like I’ve been punched between my ribs at the top of my stomach. When I lay on my side it feels like a crushing, collapsing feeling internally, and flat on my back it’s actually quite hard to breathe. It’s way worse with exercise, even just being stood up too long it feels like my insides are heavy. Started around 3/4 weeks post c-section

39 weeks 3days

Hii everyone, I’m feeling really confused and a little worried, so I wanted to ask if anyone has experienced something similar. My due date is 26th of this month.

Yesterday, I lost what I think was part of my mucus plug, and it was light brown. Today it was a little more and darker brownish. I’ve also been getting period-like cramps that come and go, but I have constant lower back pain that doesn’t seem to go away. My body feels very tired and achy, and if I walk more, the back pain gets worse.

I’m really confused about whether this could be the start of labour or just signs that my body is preparing. Has anyone experienced similar symptoms before labour started? How did you know it was actually labour? ❤️

So lovely to see this little one wriggling around on screen with their arm and leg buds, what a relief!

Swaddle / sleeping bag

Hey! First time mom here and I am trying to buy all the essentials. I was wondering if I need to buy any sleeping bags/ swaddles for wrapping the baby. Do you have any experiences around this?

Are you planing to have a sleeping bag for the baby in your hospital bag?

Thank you ❤️
