DID You or DO you plan to circumcise
How long after you found out you’re 1cm did you go into labor? Like when did water break or when did they decide to induce you? I am 36 weeks and 1 day and they said I’m a good 1cm.
When should I start packing and what should I bring? I don't know what's provided by the NHS at the hospital and what's not 🤷🏻♀️
My waters broke at 11pm and I started having contractions at 12, now 6 hours later I’m only 1cm dilated. I’m in fucking agony…how do people do this????
The girl of our dreams, born 24/10/24 - 12 days late!! I was induced and laboured so quickly I didn’t even get a delivery bed or room!
I had my baby boy on the 19th and needed an emergency c section. The sides of my incision busted open and i went to the ER. They didn't glue the incision back and only put pressure and gauze. Has anyone else had their incision bust open? Did doctors get it closed back?
I have been healing well for my C-section (3 weeks pp), I feel like I could have sex with my husband, but my midwife won’t do the IUD until 6-10 weeks. Could we use condoms? Is the risk infection? Condoms should be sterile but idk about the oil on them
Are you mommies planning to have a birth plan or you go with the flow ? If yes what are you putting on this plan?
I wish someone told me about the blood. This seems like the equivalent of a period, but I know it only gets worse.
For those who have gone through this before, tell me about your scheduled c sections? What is it like? What to expect? How was recovery? Any recovery necessities?
Hi Ive just been prescribed pessary for thrush. Doctors said don’t put the applicator as far as usual. First night didn’t do it far enough and it came out. Done it further tonight but on Google that you should not use the applicator ?!? Have you and has everything been ok
Hey yall! I’m 36 weeks and 4 days. I had contractions last night that weren’t super consistent, a lot of pressure in my pelvis, and a horrible back ache. All day today I’ve been having contractions (it definitely was contractions because it was super tight, felt like period cramps, and went all of the way around my ...

I'm pregnant again and having a hard time. Just wondering if anyone delivered at 37weeks and did they have any side effects from delivering early? Was baby ok?
Anyone tried the at home YouTube workout to induce labour? I did it a couple hours ago and hoping it works 😂🤞 38+5 and sooooo uncomfortable!!
I’m thinking of doing it alone, this is my 3rd baby and partner hasn’t been supportive. I always make my own decisions as he is always away for his business. So I’m like what is the point of him even been there 🤷🏻♀️ I’m also due a week before Christmas so childcare around that time is limited due to our children…
Anyone used the c section patch stickers? When do you start and what do they actually do? I'm 7 weeks pp but had an opening so will wait for that to heal 1st
Odd one but I just wiped and had this weird brown string of discharge. Have this happened to anyone? It was like a rubber band. So so odd and wondering what it could be.
You know with vaginal birth, when you bleed for a few weeks after the birth, does that also happen if you've had a C-section?
