C section tomorrow!

Hey ladies I have my c section booked in Aberdeen for tomorrow and I’ve completely forgot where I have to go in the morning, it’s only my 2nd time in that hospital, any advice would be great as my midwife isn’t answering her phone thank you xxx

Pelvic girdle pain

Hi, I’m 24 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby, my pgp is actually insane. It was always bad with my other two but at around 28-30 weeks. It started around 20 weeks, did anyone else experience it this early? And any recommendations?

Hematoma after c section

I’m 3 weeks pp and a hematoma has formed on top of my incision. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, did the fluid/ blood reabsorb into the body or drain out? Did it eventually disappear? I’m worried that it will require draining but my doctors are adamant this isn’t an option.

I’m so over being pregnant

I’m 36 weeks and CONSTANTLY constipated. I’ve literally tried everything and I can not poop to save my life. My stomach hurts soooo bad. I feel like I’m going to shit myself but then I try to use the bathroom and I’m so backed up that I can’t. Now my freaking butthole feels like it’s turned inside out and there’s so much pressure from my hemorrhoid. I’m so over this 😭 I just want to feel normal again man. I love my babies but I absolutely hate being pregnant. I’m so miserable 😭

20 week scan!

The so-called "20 week scan" is scheduled next Monday for me and I'm actually 19w 1d next Monday. Is it still fine or did they make a mistake while scheduling? Should I be concerned or not? And what to expect during the scan? Can I get to know the gender from the NHS itself without booking a private scan?
