How far postpartum did anybody start using scar tape / using sunbeds again? I know it’s not recommended and I’m allergic to fake tan so anybody’s personal experiences with either is appreciated. My scar is really low down just at the top of the hair line so it is coverable by underwear

You can use scar tape as soon as the incision is healed! As far as a tanning bed, I’m not sure.
The scar tape isn’t necessary. You can if you want to or have the money. But i don’t think it’ll do anything different

Baby’s tummy is big
Has anyone had anything like this? Baby’s tummy is measuring bigger than everything else and looks huge so I’m slightly worried!

Thinking of going for a planned C-section... thoughts
I'm 27 weeks pregnant, I have type 2 and gestational diabetes. I got pregnant via IVF. I'm on blood thinners as high risk for clots.
I've got to have baby girl early due to the GD (even tho my blood sugars are controlled, not taking insulin and my type 2 diabetes had reversed before getting pregnant due to 9 stone weight loss). They've said I'll have to have her from 38 weeks. This is my first pregnancy to full term so the likelihood of me going into labour naturally before that point is quite low and so my options are either an induction or C-section.
I think I've made up my mind to go for an elective C-section but wanted to hear others experiences where the situation is similar.
Thanks ♥️

Should I be worried?🙄
I'm currently 6+4 weeks pregnant and we've had our first scan today. The gestational sack was there, and heartbeat was visible but the embryo only measures just 4mm and the heartbeat was only 105 bpm. We were told the embryo is basically measuring 3 days younger (6+1)and we should come back in 10-14 days for another scan. I'm slightly worried now whether everything is ok...
Did anyone have a similar experience and it turned into a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby?

Found out I am pregnant
Aside from nutrition, health and habits, what were things you immediately thought about to make sure you have a great pregnancy?
Any good pregnancy apps that were exceptional about baby development, pregnancy facts info and so on?
I feel so happy and overwhelmed at the same time about what needs to be planned and done 🤗

Hospital bag size
Is a medium suitcase too big to take to the hospital? it will have everything but snacks in it. With my second I took a hand luggage for myself and a baby bag for baby but it was annoying having two separate bags and it won’t all fit in a hand luggage
