Has any one else experienced really bad pressure/ hemorroids, I’m 37 weeks today and had such loose bowel movements but today it’s got 10x worse I was screaming with pain. I had to run to the bathroom and it felt like the babies head was ready to come out with the pressure I was having (literally felt like ring of fire) how do I know if it’s just hemorroids or early labour pressure as I’ve been told by my midwife his head is engaged 😩😩 sooo painful.

I would ring Triage sweet.

Head to hospital! Get checked out. You aren't wasting anyone's time. They want to make sure you are okay.

If you’re screaming in pain please head to triage - see if you’ve dilated xx
Im due in October, my 9 year old wants to be in the delivery room. I think it would be so special and of course I'd love her there. Im just curious on how to navigate, how to prep her, or if its even a good idea at all. My daughter's daddy passed in 2021, and the father of this baby unfortunately will not be making it to the birth, so it'll be my mom and best friend. And we shall see about my girl. Any advice, tips or words of encouragement are greatly appreciated 🤍

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..

My partner and I are Scottish. Can any non Scots tell me if they could pronounce these names;
Caledonia
Ceilidh
Very Scottish names I’m in love with both my fiance hates Caledonia but I don’t know that anyone outside of Scotland will pronounce Ceilidh properly.

Any tips for helping Heartburn?
I've tried Gaviscon AND Rennies tablets, and midwife suggested milk of magnesium but none of it helps. It will go for max an hour then come back again.
