Hello, a little bit is normal in early pregnancy along with some cramping usually noting to worry about, enough to fill a pad is concerning and you should call your ob

The same happened to me and it all ended up being fine, just implantation bleeding or cervical irritation. That said I was really worried and did get it checked out at the EPU. If you aren’t already under their care I think it’s a GP referral needed if in the UK. If you’re worried overnight I’d phone 111 but just bear in mind they’ll likely advise A&E who might not be able to do a scan in the EPU until working hours

Welcome October Twins

We did it! Hit 37 weeks on the nose for our October twin boys delivered via c section.

For any mamas at Heartlands in Birmingham - BRING YOUR OWN BUTTER! The trust has removed butter and replaced it with margarine, thankfully I was pre warned 🤣

For those who have had two c sections

Hi ladies, I was wondering how recovery was after having two c sections?
Iv had one and planning another. First recovery was fine but wondered how second one would be xx

Mama's who had a VBAC after one c-section I have questions!

How long did you push for your VBAC?

Did your scar change the sensation /pain levels of your contractions?

What gestation did you go into labor with your c-section vs your vbac?

And only semi related to c-section, if you were induced with your first and not with your VBAC, how did the contractions differ?

Also if you got to 10 CM and didn't push before your c-section at all let me know because I'm extra interested in hearing from you since that was my experience!

Multiple c-section mums…

When you had your second c-section, did they cut over the old scar or make a new incision?
