Does anyone else have or have had placenta previa? 🥺
If you had it during your pregnancy, did it eventually move out of the way, or did you end up needing a C-section?
I’m currently 29 weeks and 3 days, and unfortunately, mine still hasn’t moved. My doctor said I may end up needing a C-section, and honestly, I’m really scared. 😠I’m really hoping it moves before delivery because having a C-section is something I’m very afraid of.
I would love to hear from other moms who have been through this. Did your placenta move later in pregnancy? 💕

I had it with my second pregnancy. Thankfully, it was caught early enough to monitor every four weeks. By my third appointment, which I was 31 weeks that day, my placenta had fully moved out of the way. It took about 10 weeks to move and I was HORRIBLY uncomfortable the whole time 😅 my doctor told me the timeframe is usually up to 36 weeks, if I’m remembering correctly, so you’ve still got a little time for it to move as baby grows. Praying it moves for you!!

I’m 32 weeks and going in tomorrow to see if mine has moved 🤞

I had complete previa but moved out at my 28th week.
You still have time until 36th week I guess, they will be monitoring to see if it moved or not.

Do you know how much it needs to move to be in the clear

I had a partial previa, but it moved out of the way by 28 weeks. You still have a bit of time that it can shift, here’s to hoping it does! I understand the fear of a c-section, I was petrified, but I had a great experience with mine.
I’m feeling so short of breath and knackered now! 😅 I don’t really look forward to going to sleep anymore because I know I’ll be uncomfortable. But near the end, I’m just ready for her to come out now. I still have another 4 weeks!

For any Mum’s on here who had babies in January 2025, and are now either pregnant or have had second babies, when did you/how did you know the time was ‘right’? Since my son has turned 19 months I feel something has changed in me and I feel more open to it!

Anyone who’s had a gtt test, when did you get your results back?
I had mine Wednesday just gone and said they’ll call if I’m positive, or if I’m negative it’ll be in my nhs app. Told me that if I haven’t heard back by next Wednesday then to call them, but I go on holiday that Wednesday. I know chances are if I haven’t heard anything by then I’m more than likely negative
I remember with my last pregnancy I had to call for the results but I also don’t think they told me to wait a week to call ?

hey mamas, did anyone take lexapro while pregnant? my psychiatrist who works with preg women says it’s high studied and safe but then the pharmacist said there may be a small risk and it also says that on the medication info bag (im starting now in 3rd trimester with twins)

Don’t get me wrong I love my baby and love the snuggles. However, I think I’m a bad mom, because I’m looking forward to not being in newborn stage anymore. Idk how moms stay home with their babies for 2 months without going stir crazy. I’m sure there is a lot I’ll miss about newborn life. Does this make me a bad mom?
