Ah I feel for you but honestly not alot :( have you got a pregnancy belt. I have one here you're welcome to have. I found that was my best support. Excuse the punn. I also found being in water helped as it took the weight off my bump. X

It's a good idea to see a pelvic floor physio and they can help with pelvic girdle pain too. Maybe speak with your midwife about referring you? Unfortunately NHS can often take a while 😞 my friend recommended Gillian McCabe for private pelvic floor physio

I went to see an osteopath once a fortnight which helped and also you can do some stretches/exercises. I also went for flotation therapy in Penarth which felt lush.

I also did aquanatal swimming x

Birthing plan.

What was everyone’s experience and what did you do to recover?
My first born was born by c section and it was a really bad recovery I want a natural birth and I’m so worried about the aftercare or what to do to avoid damage down there

VBAC or Planned C-Section?

I had an emergency C-section with my first at age 39. 10 hours of labor, stalled at 8cm and his heart rate kept dropping significantly. I’m now age 40 and 30 weeks pregnant. Time to decide if I’m going to try vaginal birth or just schedule the c-section. Part of me wants the traditional experience, but the other part of me is terrified and almost feels like another c-section would be the “easy way out” lol. My doctor was so quick to just suggest scheduling the c-section, but curious to hear VBAC success stories or if the recovery from a second c-section was awful or not too bad - help!

C Section Recovery

Currently 5 weeks post partum and my scar has the tiniest opening on the left hand edge but this is going smaller day by day - I’ve had gauze on it to stop anything getting in and have noticed a really small about of brown/yellow liquid on it. Has anyone else had this? It is not hot so don’t think it is an infection but would feel better if this has happened to anyone else, I have been really careful to keep it clean and dry!
