29 weeks and baby sitting on the 7.7%

Anyone else baby sitting in the 7.7% but over the weeks it has increased? I’ve had everything checked this week to see if baby is getting enough oxygen etc and fluid looks good

They mentioned very briefly if it continues I’ll be having my baby early
Anyone any experience on this?

6th two weeks ago at 29 weeks, yesterday 12.2% at 31

I had it with my last, she ended up off the charts and had to have a scan by a consultant who measures on a generic chart instead of a personalised growth chart and was higher. Changes can happen so quickly. Be positive. My girl was born 2 weeks early by C-section and was 6lb 1 and was healthy. She was born on the lower end of my personalised growth chart but have is a healthy sassy 2 year old. Hopefully all goes well for you and they have a boost or follow their curve xx

The size of your baby and the percentile its in comes from an algorithm in the ultrasound machine which is based on a group of middle class white women's babies from like the 50s or something and it wasnt a very large number of women. So just bare that in mind. Like my friend is 5ft and im 5'11 and to the algorithm it would suggest her baby is small compared to mine but it will be smaller she is 5ft and thats just one variable so I wouldnt get too hung up on the percentile. Hopefully youre all having lovely pregnancies. Xx

Slow labour?

So i went in for my sweep today, i am 39+6. Baby is 3/5 engaged. I was already around 4cm dilated but NOT in active labour. Ive been having cramps for the past 2 weeks and honestly feel like the sweep did absolutely nothing🙂. I lost my mucus plug and that was about it. I feel like this baby just doesnt want to come out. Im tired and so over it. The pain is absolutely just tiring me out however everytime i go to triage to get it checked out they say its normal. I have tried everything and anything at this point. Is anyone else in the same boat or is it just me

C-sections

If you have had multiple sections, which did you find the easiest recovery wise?

I found my second a lot harder than my first as the operation was longer. Worried if I had a third, it would be even more difficult.

Induction…

Soooo, I was really against inducing after my first baby as it was not a nice experience at all!!
But due to a change in medical conditions I’m having to be induced this week now as I want to avoid a c section due to being on my own with the kids throughout the week.

I’m just wondering if anyone else has had second time round a better experience few mums at school have said it’s a lot quicker second time round.

I’m just wondering as I now have to sort out care for my 5 year old as I was in for over a week with her😩
