Anxiety

Hi. Just wondering if anyone has been or is like me?
I'm 23 weeks where I've had an early scan ( private) with both 12 week scan and 20 weeks measuring 2 days apart of my EDD. The dates make sense to me but for some reason I'm questioning everything about the dates. If they believed baby was measuring weeks ahead would they speak to you regarding this?

31 weeks- waters?

Had a really weird experience this morning! Had sex and about an hour later went for a wee- had gone for a wee before sex too but then 5 mins later a gush of clear water liquid came out of me down my legs, over my hands. Not a trickle but not a puddle. Anyone else had this?

We went to MAU and cervix is closed and it wasn’t discharge so we’ve been sent home and told to monitor and monitor symptoms. Baby’s not engaged and moving lots.

Just feel like we need more answers than that?

Should parents be able to choose the order of their details on their child's birth certificate?

This is a UK poll whereby the father’s details are listed first. Where no father is named, those boxes remain empty. Where both parents named identify as female, the non-birthing parent goes first and the birthing parent second. This is according to The Births and Deaths Registration Act 1953.

Is anyone else feeling sick again more?

Placenta Praevia

Hi, it's just been confirmed that I have placenta praevia (the placenta is covering the opening of the cervix) which, if it doesn't resolve on its own, means an elective c-section. Does anyone know how early they might perform a c-section for this? Trying to plan my mat leave!

Is this normal

My 3 month old kicked me in the incision/scar spot so obviously low impact but it hurt like hell and since then I have noticed when I press around the area it hurts. My husband thinks I need to go to the doctor's but is this level of contact/touch pain/tenderness normal at this stage ?

Midwife involvement question

I am 15 weeks now, and I have only met my midwife once for the intake appointment. She was lovely, but I haven’t been able to get in touch with her and my 12 week and 20 week scan have been scheduled in another hospital.

Wondering if this is normal and how others have gone about getting information/advice from their midwives between appointments.
