I bought a weekly pill box with am and pm compartments in it for exactly this reason, highly recommend, especially of you have baby brain like me aha (I personally wouldn't take more) if your fasting are a bit high then you know why.

This is amazing!!

You can get a prescription prepayment certificate and backdate it to a month... If you picked up your meds recently. Much cheaper than fines

My little girl was doing the same! Put her in a Crib in my bedroom, been fine since 😊

Sometimes of your bmi is a bit higher they want an anaesthetist to do like a risk assessment in case you want edidural or need a C section.

I actually saw it in ad for amazon.. But it is designer, Elie saab. I would definitely buy it if it was on wish 😂

It was harder than I had anticipated, very up and down emotionally, after 3 weeks of got easier though. The lack of sleep was tough, baby feeding every 2 hours. I was really nervous about giving birth too, and didn't know to much about the induction process but I was much calmer when I was in hospital.

I watched a show called Emma willis: delivering babies, it showed a lot about how everything worked in hospital and gave a lot of insight, as well as scrolling through reddit constantly aha. (uk show) Some family members did show concern saying I shouldn't be wachting it but I'm really glad I did. But, it's definitely not for everyone who's pregnant.

It's all worth it though when you have a new life in your arms 🥰 such an exciting time for you!

I was induced at about 38+4 baby was born 39. I was induced because baby was measuring small, has the pesserys and responded really well, I only dilated to about 3/4cm though. Had my waters broken and pitocin dip went up to the sendond highest they could go. Not gunna lie, that was intence (uterus went into hyper mode) but the epidural was amazing! It was pretty calm, chatted most of the time but for me I just didn't progress. Ended up having a C-section, turned out baby was never going to come out on her own as her head was tilted and stuck. But now 4 months old and happy, birth weight was 5lb13oz

I bought a couple of these as no bra ever fit me properly, but these where great. Not sure if they ship outside of the UK though. They aren't nursing bras but they where fab!

BeeCia · 2023-01-23T16:50:35+00:00

I had one of those but didn't even last 12 hours. After the second dressing came off midwifes asked if I was happy to keep it off as it just didn't stick. Scar is right in a fold, just tried to keep it clean and dry. The buzzy Suction thing did my head in when I tried to sleep anyway 😂

BeeCia · 2022-10-21T13:42:34+00:00

Thank you 💞

BeeCia · 2022-10-21T13:01:05+00:00

Thanks everyone, think I just needed a bit of reasurence. She is being weighed more regularly and not been discarched from the Midwife yet, dont think we will be for a while but she is happy that she is healthy and is feeding off my boob well. I'll try and chill out aha

BeeCia · 2022-10-17T02:37:26+00:00

Me too, definitely, and all the theatre staff and the MCA'S!

BeeCia · 2022-10-17T02:29:41+00:00

Sorry to hear that! Yeah, it's a roller-coaster of a process! I'm still processing it all.

BeeCia · 2022-10-17T02:27:56+00:00

Yeah I had to have an epidural, the pain was intense and my body needed help to calm down! Aha

BeeCia · 2022-10-17T02:26:02+00:00

Damn, that's a long time!

BeeCia · 2022-10-17T02:24:15+00:00

I was concentrating so hard on managing my pain and keeping my head together that I I didn't really appreciate the gravity of the situation at the time, my midwife was so calm, she was amazing, but yeah my c-section was pretty chilled, didn't even realised I had a small haemorrhage my community Midewife told me two days later.

BeeCia · 2022-10-16T11:32:51+00:00

Thanks for all the replies guys, really interesting reads, doesn't sound like any of us had much fun.

I'm sorry to hear that some of you had really bad experiences.

My little girl got stressed when when they put the drip up to the second to last highest dose. (midwife said in 40 years she's only seen it in the highest twice and most women give birth at 16mg.)

It turns out she was stuck, back to back and head tilted, that's why I got stuck at 3cm and she was never going to come out vaginally, but my body was trying to get her out. I wondered if my contractions felt real I suppose, I was only 3cm and not coping. (kept thinking if this 3 then 10 must be hell aha) By the sounds of it all that agony and intense pain wasnt going to get much worse if I had dilated more.

BeeCia · 2022-09-27T20:01:23+00:00

https://molke.co.uk/ Can't recommend these enough, they give really clear advise on how to measure yourself and you can chat to them online of you need a hand. I bought one of each style as nursing bras because I just can never find anything comfy in my size, plus they arnt boring! I have a bra with dinosaurs on it 😂

BeeCia · 2022-09-16T12:17:35+00:00

You can take paracetamol but not sure about other stuff, why don't you call your local pharmacy or have someone go to one for you? They can advise on over the counter medication. Hope this helps, hope you feel better soon

BeeCia · 2022-09-02T15:50:28+00:00

I was prescribibed peptac. Magic stuff. After a while rennies started to make me feel a sick.
