Checking at home 👀

Has anyone else considered trying to check their own cervix? 😅 or getting husband to check. I’m just so curious if anything is happening yet! 🤣 I can’t be the only one

C section date

I got my planned c section date today, the consultant wanted to book me in for 39+2 but I insisted on 40 weeks exactly. I didn't want to give birth earlier than necessary and both my children were born 41 weeks exactly (1 spontaneous labour 1 induced). I'm just panicking a bit now I've only ever had emergency sections, how likely is it that I will go into labour early? Did I make the wrong decision should I ask to change the date. TIA

Jury in the LC trial

So the jury has been sent back in a deadlock. I'm so conflicted on my opinion about this case, I'm not sure she was in psychosis but don't feel the CW has given enough evidence that it's not a possibility. How/what sealed your opinion on the case? (If you've followed it).

I'm not even entertaining the idea that it was PCs fault.

GROW Scans

I just had a GROW scan at 32 weeks as my midwife referred me to it as the baby was just above the 10th percentile.

I don’t know why I feel so upset about the baby being small. I’ve always been very healthy and I think I’m doing all the right things and eating healthy and trying to rest and stuff and I know all babies are different and depends on your body and stuff. He’s a healthy baby just small but for some reason it worries me that he’s small?

I think its the lack of speaking or comments made by the people doing the scans like you ask questions and its all “yes/no, it’s normal” like is it tho?

I dont know if I’m overthinking it! Anyone else feeling a bit deflated about their own scans?

C sections

I’ve opted for an elective section this time round, due to a difficult natural birth last time, can someone help ease my anxiety?! You hear all the horror stories but not the ones that are positive

First time pregnancy, when do you tell people?!

Just interested in knowing when is a good time to tell people you’re expecting. I’m 6 weeks 4 days. I’ve told my work bestie to get me through work, and that is it! Am I crazy? I’m worried to tell anyone else until I’ve had my first scan?
