20 week anatomy scan

Baby is looking good. She is measuring the right size and nothing else of note with her organs. I have placenta previa which I hope will go away soon.

Just curious x

Let's be so real... how's everyone finding maternity leave?

Someone asked me, "Are you enjoying your maternity leave?" As in going out, doing things, making the most of it.

Honestly? I haven't been out much at all. I've mostly been at home with my baby, and it definitely hasn't been easy. There have been hard days. My mum comes over and cooks for me sometimes, which I'm so grateful for.

But if you asked whether I'm enjoying maternity leave, I'd actually say yes. I'm genuinely enjoying the slower pace, being at home with my baby, and not feeling like I have to be out all the time. It's not glamorous, and it's not always easy, but these quiet days mean a lot to me.

How's everyone else enjoying their maternity leave? Are you out and about, or are you embracing the slow days at home too?

I’m 5 months PP

Bloody show

Had a sweep yesterday and think I might have passed my bloody show today . Am I meant to call triage or not? I did ask them yday and they didn’t seem very bothered about that but I also didn’t feel she gave a direct answer

Blood thinner injections...

Im a week PP and was prescribed 6 weeks of the blood thinners but I absolutely hate them!

At the end of my c-section the anaesthetist said i qualified for 10 days but the surgeon jumped in a said no my bmi is over 40 so it has to be 6 weeks. Thing is, my bmi only hit 40 at the end of the pregnancy so typically its below 40 and ive rapidly lost since the section too...

Would I be crazy to stop at 10 days and not do the full 6 weeks? Its such a big time difference and im really struggling with it 😫😫
