Mum guilt 😭

I was due to go for an ECV today, but the hospital called today to reschedule for Thursday due to lack of available consultants

I completely understand why the hospital has rescheduled, and am not at all annoyed with them

But, my new appointment means I won’t be able to pick up my little boy on his first day of nursery 😭 as if the mum guilt wasn’t already so bad with me being exhausted and a new baby coming!! 😭

Totally understand why you would feel that way! Stuff like this is so hard emotionally and already feels like you need to split yourself in two. It's horrible.

Can the hospital do any other day at all?

Awh bless you! Are you able to bring him? I would probably be more worried about that! Mine started today and frankly she couldnt have cared any less if I were there or not 🤡

6W6D no heartbeat with a haemorrhage

After the worst week of my life, we went for a rescan yesterday… haemorrhage in the sac, baby has grown from 3.3 to 4.2 in 4 days. Measured me at 6 weeks and 6 days but no heartbeat was seen. I have another scan on the 7th… is there a possibility baby will be okay and heartbeat will be seen? This next week is going to be hell😭

Natural labour

Can you recommend what people have done that seemed to work to try to induce labour naturally?
Been eating dates, drinking raspberry leaf tea, using my ball, curb walking (when it wasn't torrential rain)

Incomplete Scan

I’m 22 weeks pregnant and I’ve just got home from my second ‘20 week scan’. It will be marked as incomplete because, due to baby’s position, they couldn’t see the right side of the heart. All other checks were completely normal.

I won’t be offered another scan or be referred to foetal medicine. Has this happened to anyone else?

I really wanted some closure but I’m also pleased that everything they did see was fine.

Second babies

Has anyone had their second babies fast, and how did it go/ how is it going?

My little one who is my first is only 11 weeks old and my partner really begs to have another one quickly so they are similar in age. Not like next week but within the next year!
