Hey mamas,
The top layer fell off last night and my midwife also said any loose ends I can cut off. I just now saw the spottings in certain areas. Should I be worried?

The other side also has some light spotting

this looks fine to me and my only expertise is having two c sections. One with stitches and one with staples.

It looks beautiful. Mine was a fucking mess haha. Just take it easy and keep it dry. If in doubt, you your midwife again.

All of my dressing was taken off 24 hours later. This looks really good to me x

Thank you all haha I was starting to have so many scenarios in my head especially since my midwife hasn’t replied to my email yet

I had some spotting as well and my doc used the dissolvable glue. I think it’s perfectly good mama!

Has anyone else experienced pain in this area when sitting and laying on your side.
Feels like a sharp stabbing / pulling and gets worse the longer you’re in that position.
Baby is head down
Thanks! 🙏🏼

Hi everyone. I’m a first time mama expecting my rainbow baby girl on Christmas Day. I’m currently 33.5 weeks.
The last four or five days I’ve found my tummy feels really uncomfortable and not like it did previously. It feels like baby is pushing or leaning back against the front of my tummy all of the time, so one side feels really full and distended. She’s kicking and moving fine, but I don’t know whether this is just a result of her getting bigger and so feels new, or something else?

Just been for my last growth scan and now very concerned.
Estimated fetal weight puts baby at 86 percentile
But stomach is 97% and so is femur (thigh bone) at 97%
They’ve said they think my baby is 8lb 12oz already, my last baby was 7lb 6oz
Scared I have potentially 3 weeks left to go 💀

Hi everyone,
I’m hoping to hear from anyone who’s experienced something similar because it’s really frightened me.
I’m currently 23 weeks pregnant and was admitted to hospital after having some fresh red bleeding. It wasn’t a huge amount, but it was definitely more than just a tiny spot. I had all the checks done, stayed in hospital for 24 hours, and thankfully everything with baby was reassuring, so I was discharged.
Since coming home, I’ve had a little more bleeding (just small amounts), which has made me really anxious. The doctors couldn’t tell me exactly what caused it, and all they could say was that sometimes they never find a definite reason.
Has anyone else had unexplained bleeding this late in pregnancy and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy? Did the bleeding eventually stop, or did it come and go? I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences because I’m feeling so worried at the moment. ❤️

When did you get your period after your c section?
After my first i got it exactly on my daughter's first birthday, i was breastfeeding.
This time around i had an emergency c section at 30+5, im exclusively pumping, not sure if it was a period but i had period like bleeding for 4 days at 8 weeks. The spotting 2 weeks after and now im 12 weeks pp and spotting again, is it my cycle coming back or should i get checked?
(I'm cycle day 23 today counting from the first period )
