Pregnant again at 35 😅

We have two babies currently 9 and 2.5. We decided to try for another and somehow it only took one try and it worked lol. I’m still praying for a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby. My last pregnancy I had preeclampsia and he was born 6w early, but I was at least 60 pounds heavier at the START of my pregnancy so I’m hoping being healthier this time around will help. I’ve taken 3 tests, they’ve all been positive. I’m very excited but ugh I’m soooo olddddd

Anyone have positive stories of a planned c sections after emergency?

I had my first child when I was 29 I’m now 37 with my 2nd and really worried about the birth.
I had a really easy pregnancy with my first child no symptoms but a really hard labour that ended in emergency c section and lost 2litres of blood … this one I have been so ill first trimester I’m now in second trimester and really freaking out about the birth. I didn’t realise I was even scarred from my last birth until I got pregnant I’m having a planned c section.

Any positive stories of emergency and then planned? Or similar situations

Baby dropped at 34 weeks

This is a question more for the moms who have had a baby before I guess. Recently had a growth scan because my belly started measuring two weeks behind. Turns out he is just engaged in my pelvis which skewed the measurement... which I could have told them based on all the pressure lol. They said it doesn't mean he's coming super early or anything, but then I've also read that they tend to come 2 to 4 weeks after dropping. And he has felt this low since about 32 weeks. Im due Oct 15 and hoping to go all the way, so just wondering if any moms remember their babies staying dropped for several weeks?

Struggling with overthinking and not feeling myself at 17 weeks

I’m 17 weeks and having a bit of an emotional week accompanied by a lot of overthinking 🥲

I’m a FTM and for the last couple of weeks I’ve really been struggling with having no sex drive and feeling like I’m neglecting my partner because of it. On top of that, I just don’t feel particularly attractive at the moment. I don’t really know how to dress my changing body and I’m struggling with not quite feeling like myself as everything changes.

I’ve also started worrying a lot about how the dynamic of our relationship might change once the baby is here and what it will mean for us as a couple. You see and hear so much about relationships struggling after having a baby, and I think I’ve got myself into a bit of an overthinking spiral about it.

I’m so happy and excited to have our little baby and feel incredibly lucky, which then makes me feel guilty for having all these negative thoughts and worries at the same time. I just can’t seem to get myself out of this headspace at the moment.

Any reassuring words or experiences from anyone who’s felt similarly would really be appreciated 🥲🤍
