Wow girls! This week I’ve been feeling a lot pulling and weird sensations in my lower belly. Some almost period like sensations. No bleeding and nothing overly painful, just odd! Has others been experiencing the same?? I don’t think anything bad of it, just trying to relate to others 💓

Hey Abi, yeah. I've been feeling this way recently, like a stretching feeling. Like a balloon in my belly that is too big 🤭

Also feeling this at 10w+4d. I also have a fibroid so I was feeling worried but apparently normal. Such a weird sensation

Yes! Also the pulling when you turn in bed or move too fast? I got it when I jumped at a scary moment in a film 🤣 apparently it’s totally normal and not dangerous ❤️
I had my 4d scan and omg so in love . 🥹😍 was debating if to get one or not and so glad I did .

We went for a growth scan today as my bump was measuring smaller(currently 37 weeks) , however, they’ve said she looks to be growing really well and currently weighs 7lb 4 which is apparently slightly above average! Would this be 100% right? Or has anyone been told that their babies weight is one thing on a growth scan and completely different when they’re born? It’s our first baby so have no idea🩷

How soon did people drive after c-section?
I know the advice is 6 weeks but did anyone go sooner?

My second baby is breech at 37 weeks, my first was a vaginal birth.
How long did you ladies stay at home after your c-section? I want to have the time to recover, but I don't want to be away from my daughter for any longer than I have to.

I’m desperate to start on some abdominal strengthening exercises but am only 12 days PP 😬
I feel good following surgery and my scar is healing well! I appreciate now is probably too soon but when did other people start on recovery/strength movements?
