I was due surgery during my 1st pregnancy and would have been around 7 weeks. I was told I could have the op with the possibility of losing the baby or postpone due to it not being life threatening. Are you able to postpone?

Ah okay, unfortunately not as if I don’t there’s more risk to both me and baby

There's always a risk in pregnancy at any point and it's low with having general anesthesia. I think as long as they're aware and can monitor you closer because GA slows the breathing so as long as they're aware and can provide more oxygen throughout then the risks are very low.
Wishing you all the best ❤️

Yeah especially up until 12 weeks, the way the anaesthetist was saying it was as if I should be prepared to lose the baby from my procedure. I should only be out for max of hour and a half. And it’s only to put drains in my kidneys. Aw thank you was not expecting them to say this to me as my surgeon said it’s safe a few days ago xx

Anyone else 40 weeks +? Are you still making plans to do stuff during the week or are you completely on baby watch?

It’s half term and I have a toddler. I’m 40+4 and stuck between just getting on with making plans with friends or sit at home and wait around! Especially with how the weather is currently, it’s seems a lot of effort just to get out in this wind and rain!

Challenges at 34 weeks.

I am finding it difficult with the pressure that baby is causing. Some nights to lots of pressure down below where it feels like she is coming out, other nights she’s so high in my stomach I feel so bloated and it’s so tight. Is this just me or is this something others go through.

Irritable

Is there anyone who is 3 months PP and super irritable? Is it hormones balancing back out? Period about to start back?
Or have you ever been super irritable like that and it wasn’t your cycle starting again?
This is my first baby and idk what’s happening. I am super irritable and my sensory has been on overload. Hearing people eat makes me want to punch a hole in the wall. I wasn’t like this until about a week ago, I’ve had such a bad attitude because everything annoys me and I feel so bad after the fact. Idk what to do or what’s happening
