Hey everyone! I am being induced at 36 weeks due to rhesus incompatibility- I don’t know a huge amount about the induction process but would like to learn what to kind of expect before I go in next week! Could anyone run me through the process & what it was like for you? New terms keep popping up for me like cervi...
did anyone get a phone call the evening before they were due in for an induction with a time? i’ve been told they should ring around 6pm the night before, if not the morning of but i was just curious if anyone has had a phone call the night before?
Is anyone giving birth or has given birth recently at St Georges Hospital, Tooting? Im currently 35 weeks and being transferred there, but freaking out after reading reviews. Anyone got some advice or experiences to share?
Checked into hospital yesterday with back to back contractions. They are keeping me for a few days with hopes to slow them down since I’m only 36+3. When i arrived I was 1cm dilated, eventually progressed to 3. If I get to 5, they will deliver baby. Original due date 11/11 🥲
How long did everyone wait to have a second baby?
Are we meant to do anything when this happens? I know it can rebuild over time etc.
I know this isn't a labour indication but curious as to how long after people lost their mucus plug did labour start to progress. Due today. Sweeped 2 days ago. Mucus plug gone today.
Hi! I’m currently under Good Hope Hospital, but due to cardiac issues my Cardiologist has recommended giving birth at Coventry where they are based. Yesterday was my first time at Coventry Hospital and I found it so overwhelming! Can you let me know your experiences giving birth at Coventry? I’ve got a few weeks to ...
Hi, I’ve been booked in for an anaesthetics appointment at the hospital. I’m assuming this is because of my weight I’m classed as high risk. Does anyone have any experience of this and could help me to understand what this is and why I have it? I’m 23w and haven’t decided on a birth plan yet.
I am due in less than two weeks & I just have no idea what to expect , please share y’all’s birth stories with me🥹

So my doctor told me i was getting induced either at 38 or 39 weeks And since is in December and i live in Chicago so winter is wild, i wanna get there comfy with my pajamas set. Do you guys think it’ll look weird? I know is a silly question but sometimes i care too much about my outfits😭 But that day i just want…
Ok I got up and there was a little puddle of idk what on my chair and my contractions or Braxton hicks are getting worse .
Hi everyone, I’m not sure if having discharge every day is normal I don’t remember being like this before a baby and now with my first I feel like everyday I throw discharge but then again idk if it’s pee although I don’t feel like I trickle or anything what are your thoughts ? Any similar experience?
Has anyone else had multiple c-sections? And will be having one this pregnancy?
I’m a first time mom, I’m 17, I’ve experienced Braxton hicks , I’m 38 weeks but my midwife measured my baby at 40 weeks on Monday. I’ve been loosing my mucus plug over the past week slowly. My water has not broke but it feels like my cramps are getting worse and it hasn’t stopped for a few hours since I got back fro...
I didn’t want to take a picture but I’m pretty sure I just had my bloody show? It was like thick discharge with brownish reddish blood in it. How long after a bloody show did you guys go into labor?
I was told I has adenomyosis during the c section I had for my now 6 month old. I'm pregnant again (6 weeks) and wondering if this changes anything for the next c section? Does having a "bulky" uterus increase risk?
I just had my second baby over two weeks ago via c section and I have the steri strips and dissolvable stitches . I have not seen my provider yet but I am going to in a week or so . My scar seems to be healing has a slight smell but nothing terrible only concern is redness and soreness , question when taking a sho...
