Has anyone had an elevated tsh in early pregnancy and went on to have a healthy pregnancy/baby?

Im 10 weeks PP and still have a healing episiotomy wound, so I was paranoid the blood was coming from there but it’s never bled before and it seems like a lot. Is it normal to start a period this soon with BF?

When did people go into labour after loosing their mucus plug?. Think I’ve been slowly loosing it for about a week now started off cream/ greenish and snotty like and today and yesterday I’ve lost what definitely looks like mucus plug with some bloody show in it I think, it’s been brown in colour and today more of a pink. I’m only 35+2 so stressed 😅😅

I’m 38+2 and have been experiencing some cramping and quite intense contractions. The first time it happened was at 37+5, and I honestly thought I was going into labour, so I called triage. I was advised to take some paracetamol and monitor how things went on.
It happened again recently, but this time I didn’t call. The cramps and contractions were really intense and lasted for about two hours.
Just wondering if anyone else has/had experienced anything similar?

I had my 28 week appointment on Friday I will be 29 weeks exactly tomorrow and my little lad's measurements were big he was measuring at 33cm I have a growth scan booked for the 17th but obviously I'm Impatient and I googled (ik worst thing to do) I know I don't have gestational diabetes as my test was normal so I'm confused as to what the reason is for him to be so big if it is accurate
I'm also "leaking" liquid (I put quotes over as I'm not sure if it is or not) idk if it's just normal discharge but I really don't want anything to be wrong, I also don't want to waste anyones time if it is just nothing and have been having a couple of Braxton hicks contractions which are rather sore when they do come but they are only once or twice and then they go away

Hi, I’m currently 36 weeks pregnant with my second baby and still unsure how I want to deliver, I had a traumatic birth with my 1st in 2024 and have been having EMDR therapy to help process the trauma, for a while I was contemplating a c section but I can’t help but feel selfish by making this decision. My 1st is 2 and 3 months and I feel like even though she won’t remember I will feel awful that I can’t carry her etc
Please share any experiences you had.
I was hoping to go vaginally again and it be a really restorative and healing birth experience but in the back of my mind I still have a lot of trauma stored from the 1st birth.
