My old hospital said earliest they can deliver and say you are full term is 37 weeks. Speak to them at hospital or your midwife. Gather all your reasons medical etc to why you should be induced early. The hospital im at now are being really difficult despite all my medical evidence etc so im thinking of asking to be transferred back to my old hospital.
Im eating fresh pineapple drinking raspberry leaf and i did get dates as its all meant to soften cervix to help induce natural labour and trying to get in a few squats a day. Im just over 34 weeks
I’m sending hugs, it’s so hard. I’m 35 weeks today and could have written this post (minus having another child to care for).
Constantly had UTI’s, Ecoli, kidney function issues and stones, HG sickness which rages on and PGP…. I’m an emotional wreck most of the time as I just cannot handle much more.
Nothing helps my PGP, I sit on a bouncy ball to help and for about 5 minutes it isn’t as bad but I find it debilitating.
I would be honest with your midwife and also might be worth speaking with the perinatal MH team…. I am under them because of the anxiety from constantly being in hospital, off work sick and struggles with the pain. Highly recommend them.
Hope something eases lovely x

TMI (Sorry)
Sorry this is a bit TMI but ever since my first period after giving birth in January 2026, my perineum aches during my period. It aches so much but goes away after painkillers.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is this normal?

Any guess guys just for fun.
I’ll try add the 19 week bump pic in comments aswell. Baby is 13 weeks in the scan picture.
I will share baby’s gender after the 25th October after we had a gender reveal

Head preference
I’ve noticed that my baby tends to fall asleep facing his right, and prefers this when playing on the floor too. If I try and put down to sleep facing the left then he’ll just move his head to the right.
Also when facing the right he can put his cheek pressed all the way down, and for the moments I’ve got him to look left I’ve noticed he can’t press his cheek all the way down, so something isn’t right.
I’ve got pics of him facing the left as a newborn just fine so think it’s a recent thing within the last 2 months.
Assuming I should get referred to someone for this, who to see and where to start? Could my health visitor do this or would I need to go private? Thank you!
