Placenta

Did anyone experience having a placental succenturiate lobe (an accessory lobe)? They just diagnosed me with it at 36 weeks during a growth ultrasound which i feel like they should’ve seen it earlier?

What was the delivery like? My OB said it’s rare to have heavy bleeding but can be possible. I’m a little scared 😭

I think that's what I had even though I never knew what it's called. The midwife showed me after delivery, it was never on a scan. I got 500 ml saline infusion as I lost a bit more blood than usual.

I had it, also noticed late but that was due to my sons position on every scan, and I had many scans as I work in maternity so was having scans at work and also at my booked hospital.
Mine was a whole small placenta that was functioning as it was connected to my main placenta via an artery. I’m my case it meant my pregnancy began as twins and by my 12 week scan there was only one baby to be seen.
I had not one bit of bleeding my whole pregnancy despite having other issues that normally causes bleeding. If they are concerned about the risk of bleeding and depending on placental positioning they may suggest an elective C Section.

3.5 weeks postpartum should I be doing more?

My little boy is 3.5 weeks old and I feel like I’m still just getting through each day.

We manage to get out for a walk a day and I always make sure I get a shower in but I feel like I spend most of my time sat down at home watching TV and feeding/holding my little one, pretty much all of his naps are contact naps which I love but I feel so unproductive.

Should I be getting out more? Going to baby groups? Just wondering what others days looked like at 3/4 weeks and when you started making plans with your days.

Breech baby!

I’m 34 weeks and don’t feel there any sign of baby turning, I’ve been doing breech tilt and leaning off the sofa and I’m more concerned baby is wedged bum down in my pelvis and won’t be able to get out himself or he’s stuck in the cord(stupid I know) going to try the hot cold trick tonight and see what he does

Pregnancy dreams! Ladies tell me about it

Ok so Ive been having recurring similar bad dreams. And I read that sometimes you can have aggressive dreams about your spouse doing stupid things. So here's the question I have, what kind of strange dreams did you have about your partner while you were pregnant?
