Hi all. Happy new year and I hope you are all well! I joined this group because I’m very nervous about a potential C section i may have to have. I have had two previous Vaginal births , this bubba is breech at 36 weeks so my consultant offered me an EVC which I declined as I looked into it and decided it wasn’t for ...
We are expecting our third child, a girl! Our first is Augustus and our second is Aurelia. We don't know if we should stick with keeping the names Roman theme, or "Au" theme.... or switch them up completely! We need some really good ideas! We are having such a hard time agreeing on anything. We also like the nam...
I’ve just been for a pregnancy massage (would highly recommend to anyone feeling as uncomfortable and miserable as me!) They suggested I book in for labour induced reflexology - just wondering if anyone else has tried this? Not sure if it’s worthwhile or a bit of a scam!
We’re flying back to UK on Thursday and struggling to get this doctor’s note. I’m 30 weeks, just wondering if anyone else has flown wizz air at this point and been asked for the note? I’m planning to hide the bump but wanted to have the note just in case!! Trying to get through to my midwife too to see if she can pr...

I am currently 37+3 and asked for a planned c-section. I have been put on the waiting list and I am waiting on a call back. Anyone know how long this takes? Very uncomfortable and pretty desperate at this point. Baby is already weighing 7pounds so is a good healthy weight.
I have a appointment with a consultant today and I’m not to sure what to expect. Did anyone ever experience a 3rd or 4th degree tear & go on to another pregnancy and had an app with a consultant? If so can you let me know what happened in the appointment as I’m feeling nervous xx
I’m currently just a little over 16 weeks, I haven’t had a scan since 11+6, but everything was noted normal with baby except my yolk sac was still present at that time. Since 6 weeks have had horrible sickness, and for the last week or so it’s completely subsided and I don’t feel I have any symptoms (I know this i...

So sick of this c section recovery 😟 I’m nearly 4 weeks post section and this is my second one. My first section healed so well and this one is just not healing at all. Its smelled since 3 days pp but they said it was just as i have an overhang and then it opened and I was given antibiotics just incase. They…
(Don’t judge 🙏) I’m currently pregnant and haven’t got a clue if I’m honest but what do I need to pack in my babies changing bag?
I’m currently 33+1 & baby’s femur is measuring on the 5th centile but all other measurements are bang on where they should be. Has anyone else had this? Did the femur catch up?
