Yes me! I still get them now and I’m 6 weeks today
Ive had it until 5weeks very normal 💕
I was exactly the same I called the early pregnancy assessment unit and they booked me in for a scan the same day! I was too early to see a heartbeat so I have to go back on the 26th. Cramping can be normal due to implantation etc but it’s worth going to get checked out x
Mine stopped around 6 weeks but it was exactly the same for me. I googled it and it said it was most likely implantation. Just keep an eye out for any bleeding x
It’s just your baby implanting deeper ❤️❤️
I found out I'm pregnant roughly about 7 weeks now and omg the pain I'm experiencing the cramps the sickness sometimes unbearable idk what to do the GP won't help

VBAC or elective?
I’m due 28th November and classed as a high risk pregnancy due to preeclampsia with my first at 37 weeks. I was about to be induced with my first but her heart rate dropped so I was taken in immediately for a category 1 caesarean in 2023. Recovery was fine for me and I am currently set to try have a VBAC this time round… however
I’m suffering so bad with PGP this time round like it’s excruciating 😣 and baby is measuring on the 77th percentile (first baby was 8lb 4oz born at 40 weeks)
I have 3 more scans and consultant appointments booked before due date with being high risk so obviously my decision is heavily dependent on how the rest of the pregnancy goes but I’m so stuck on what to do..
I’d really syked myself up to try for a VBAC this time with how my first birth went (felt like I had the experience taken away from me, obviously glad she arrived safely) but now I’m debating just having an elective cause I’m so fed up with the pain and uncomfortable and worried about labouring and not actually being able to get into positions that help because of the pain i’m in already… but I’m also terrified for a c-section (first was fine as it was that quick i almost didn’t have time to think) … the information leaflets i’ve been given is a lot of babies require oxygen support with electives and also heard the recovery for second c-section is horrendous (I also have a 3 year old and with it being near Christmas i want to be able to be present and able as much as I can) … Im so stuck on what to even try if I have the choice. I absolutely DO NOT want an induction so I’ve already said if talks about that start.. i’d opt for a c-section anyway but I just feel very very confused at the moment.
Any advice please? Think i’m just hormonal and overthinking but different midwives gives such conflicting information and advice!
Thank you 💕

Menstrual cycle after emergency c section
My first two cycles have been absolutely excruciating after my c section in July , have any other mamas experienced this? How long did it last? What helped ?

Newborn baby coughing up mucus
I had my baby on Friday morning via c section and he has for the last day been coughing up mucus which is bright yellow/orange in colour. He seems to struggle to cough it up sometimes, and a couple of times we’ve had to pick him up to help him because he’s almost choking with it. It seems like quite chunky mucus. Not sure if this is because he was born via c section, has anyone else experienced this? This is my second c section baby and I don’t remember this with my first.
I did ask my midwife this morning and she didn’t seem bothered but online says it needs medical attention so not sure if I should phone again 🤷🏻♀️

prodromal labor or is it round ligament pain
I woke up around 7 because I had a menstrual cramp feeling starting on one side and my back started hurting and then now as I’m going about my day they kinda feel like stronger menstrual cramps and now on my lower back and lower stomach hurts. I’m 31 weeks , 1 day.

Is this sign of early labour?
I’ve been feeling a lot of pelvic pressure for the last hour and nothing has helped! A few of the pressure I could feel in my lower back also! I’ve sat on my birth ball and that didn’t feel… I can still feel it! Baby is moving as normal! But its pressure is a lot and nothing has helped! I’m planning a home birth so not sure if I should call or not!
