Kids in delivery room?

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 🤍

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? ❤️

Rolling over

Baby is 4.5 months old - was rolling over from tummy to back but has now mastered back to tummy.

But he can’t seem to put the two rolls together, so whenever he rolls onto his tummy he gets really frustrated and starts crying. I move him onto his back and he immediately rolls again to his tummy 😂 does anyone else’s baby do this? 😂

Pain? Is it normal

I have pain as of if I had been sat on or riding a bike for hours. The bruised heavy feeling from the saddle, it’s been here for over a week and is so uncomfortable to walk. I am only 16 weeks.

Have anyone else experienced this?

12 weeks

Was anyone super nervous about their 12 week scan? I had a scan when I was 6 weeks and 6 days at the window of the womb and saw a heart beat. But I feel very normal now after maybe 2 weeks non stop vomiting where I was on anti sickness medication from the GP. This is my first pregnancy and I really don't know want to expect.

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..
