Pre-op for planned c section!
I had my pre-op for my planned c section today, but since coming home I’ve just thought shouldn’t they have given me some kind of antimicrobial body wash to use prior to surgery? Should I have had MRSA swabs? They already forgot to give me a copy of my consent form so I’m just wondering if they missed these things too or if they just don’t do it?! (I’ve had previous surgeries and had both of these things). Annoying I didn’t think about it whilst I was there!

I’ve got my pre op coming up and I’ve had swaps taken for MRSA. Xx
I had my swabs taken for mrsa a couple of weeks ago at the same appointment where I elected for my section. But this is my second elective and I don’t remember doing it for my first and also didn’t have any body wash to use prior and don’t this time either … don’t stress though! I always think these things aren’t done when it’s an emergency section.
Good luck with your delivery 🥰
It depends on the trust.
I didn’t get any body wash, just a quick MRSA groin swab.
I also got my consent for form section 2 on the morning of.

To invite or not to invite the bully
We want to do a whole class birthday party but are a bit undecided mainly because we have a bully in the class.
He picks on our child a lot and we have needed teacher's intervention often.
The bully made a small birthday party and obvs we were not included. But if we make a whole class party and don't include him, it would be mean.

Please don’t judge
So I never knew I was pregnant (I’m currently 11 months postpartum), I started getting kicking sensations and then my stomach started to move. I then took a pregnancy test 2 weeks ago and had a scan 4 days later. I’m currently 27 weeks pregnant.
I feel extremely guilty that I didn’t know for MANY reasons 😭
1. No screening can be done.
2. I started Mounjaro 6 weeks before finding out I was pregnant 😭 (I was roughly 19 weeks pregnant).
I genuinely feel like i have failed my little boy and I cry nearly everyday.
My question now is, I went for a private scan and baby was healthy and measured perfectly except with his tummy measuring a few days smaller. I then had a NHS scan and a midwife appointment and they plotted him on the growth chart and apparently he’s measuring really small😭😭😭
I had a call with the OB today and he said he’s not convinced he’s a small baby but he’s sending me for another scan. Obviously I’m REALLY stressed and now feel even more awful!!!
1. Has anyone experienced something like this to find out that the baby was actually fine and the plotting was wrong?
2. Has anyone taken mounjaro while pregnant and had a healthy baby🥺
Please as I have mentioned, I’m already aware I’ve messed up so PLEASE be kind.

Umbilical cord
My lil ones cord just fell off at 3 weeks but it’s bleeding and looks like this. Is it normal or do I need to get it checked
