I’m also 38+4 and experienced the same earlier today for an hour or so, a new pain/ cramping I’ve never had before. It eased into the evening and now just having normal Braxtons - uncomfortable but not painful. Thought I was going into labour earlier but doesn’t seem like it!

Exact same boat , no waters or plug yet. Let’s see how we go! Maybe start timing the pains if on and off just to be sure you’re not going into labour and give triage a call to get their opinion?

Any updates? I see this was 2 hours ago now so curious if it was labour or not!

It could be labour. Have you called triage?
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.

So I gave birth 15 months ago and had quite a traumatic vaginal birth (forceps, episiotomy, 3rd degree tear etc) I’m pregnant again and I’m thinking to go for an elected c section as I cannot bear to think about going through all that again or even taking that risk. Has anyone had an elected c section before? Would you recommend? How was your experience? Any tips or advice would be appreciated x
