I would say get a viability scan to put your mind at ease, there’s no point worrying over something when you can get the reassurance you need. I’ve been exactly the same with worrying, it’s my first pregnancy and I’ve booked in for a reassurance scan half way so I can look forward to that

Idk if it matters but I feel like my baby has dropped a bit? My pelvis aches more and my bladder seems sensitive/like I have to go more often. So excited now! Also has anyone had a discussion with their midwife or doctor about a membrane sweep? I was curious to ask my midwife some questions about it.

I’m not sure if it’s because I went into spontaneous labour before my planned c section or what but has anyone else suffered pain wise post c section? It’s only day 4 but honestly struggling with the pinching/ jolt stabbing pain on the left side of my incision when I move around and sit down. I know it’s only day 4 but people make out c sections are ‘easy’. Also have such horrendous tailbone pain (which could be from where I was having back contractions). I just want to feel back to normal and feel this is slightly taking away the newborn experience plus my toddler has reduced play from me as I can barely function 😩

I have a friends wedding which is about a 3hr drive away. Is this cutting it too close to due date to be travelling away from hospital? I could try drive there and back in a day. Not sure what the protocol is so any advice would be great.

I’m sitting here chilling at 34 weeks and I see people announcing their October babies in September! One lady posted ‘if your 34 weeks this is what your baby looks like right now’ whiles holding her October 2026 in September 🤯
