Csection at 35 weeks

Hi everyone, im currently 33 weeks pregnant and im booked in for a csection at 35 weeks.

Im really nervous about my baby having difficulties and needing nicu afterwards so im just wondering did anyone else have a csection this early and did your baby need to stay in the nicu? If so how long for?

Im so so scared for baby if feels way too early 😭

Hey! I had an emergency c section at 36 weeks due to preeclampsia my little boy was luckily on a higher percentile so was was born just under 7pounds. We was super nervous too but speak to the staff and see if you can get a tour of the nicu for reassurance, luckily he didn’t need any extra help, but had to give him some formula as my milk hadn’t come in yet so I’d prepare for that xx

No C section, but my son arrived at 35+5 spontaneous labour. He did a few days in NICU for breathing, but otherwise totally healthy.

I hate getting told ā€˜it’s not going to get any easier’

I am having a bad day today with baby as he is being extremely fussy. I’ve been non stop crying. I went into the doctors to pick up a form and the receptionist said aww he’s so cute. I then replied he’s been a nightmare today! Then she said well it’s not going to get any easier. Thanks! Just what I wanted to hear 😐 you get told it all the time and it annoys me.

Frustration with NHS and medical system in UK

Is anyone else frustrated with how things are done here. I’ve had a few minor issues at the end of my pregnancy and the low effort, misinformation and just general care here is terrible. (I’m European)
I’ve just had a consultant tell me don’t bother with Strep B testing. 1h later I had a private test booked and the lady was so concerned the NHS disregard this test.
I’m 37 weeks so I’d advise anyone to do it so you can get treatment.
I never get my test results for blood work send to me, I have to spend hours chasing on the phone.
They constantly mix up my appointments and I also just learned from a midwife that the urine test they do is so basic it doesn’t actually catch any infections. They check for glucose and I forgot the other thing.

I’ve done most of my scans and tests privately and will continue to do so.

I feel very uneasy to give birth and it’s stressing me out. :(
