KaizāLynn Camille made her arrival 10/30/24 @9:50 pm, 7lbs & 7oz , 19in long. 2 days before my induction. She had lots of meconium in the amniotic sac with her. Thankfully, it didnāt have any effect on her and sheās a very healthy baby!!
Hi mamas. So Iām getting induced sadly on the 6th, Iāll be 41 weeks by then and the Dr said my body looks so far away from going into labor, so I decided to get an induction because I just canāt hold on anymore. She told me I will be taking cytotec, and pitocin. I havenāt heard of cytotec personally. She said it...
Hi, Just wondering if thereās any mummas out there that had a c section under general anaesthetic instead of a spinal for medical reasons?

My OB is trying to talk me into attending the Elective caesarian she booked me into for tomorrow (dead on week 39). I said I really wanted to try and let baby have her week leading up to due date. But sheās telling me reason she wants me to have baby at week 39 is because my placenta is 2 weeks older. Iāve had zero ...
Does anyone else baby have a cephalohematoma ? What was the cause of it ?
Are there other moms who are afraid of childbirth and prefer a scheduled C-section? Everyone makes me feel so bad about it. Even my doctor is always trying to convince me to have a natural birth. I have scheduled a C-section for November 5th, but my family is making comments to make me feel like a bad mother or less...

This is my 3rd c section and it was horrible nearly lost my life to having to get a blood transfusion. I gave birth Friday. I am in so much pain. Did anyone else get sent home with no pain meds??

Hey ladies, I am 23 weeks and have started to get out of breath when bending over. Is this normal?
Hi everyone, Iām 9 days post c-section and have a definite shelf/overhang. Is this normal this early on and is just swelling or am I unlucky and itās here to stay?
Hey girls, I am 40 weeks tomorrow and baby still hasnāt dropped/engaged. Iāve been 2cm dialated and 90% effaced for 3 weeks, nothings changing no matter how much curb walking and birth ball-ing I do! Iām desperate for a VBAC but they want to do another c section if I donāt go into labour before 41 weeks. Any success...
Iām 40+3 now, and been having somewhat ācontractionsā and tightenings since last night. I know a lot of mamas have had their babies in this group now so just wondering: 1.

Hi, so I have done one round fresh transfer under NHS with Guy's but failed, no frozen embryos, and the next round the protocol will not change. In the meantime I have the chance to choose UCLH for future rounds. Wondering would people recommend which one? Success rate would be on the top of my head. I have very lo...
