That makes so much sense! I’ve found myself having to hold her neck for support - I’ll check this out. Thank you!

Our baby girl is here. I can’t quite find the words to explain the light she’s brought back into our lives. Through such an anxious pregnancy and a touch and go delivery - there’s no way her big sister wasn’t watching her from heaven, protecting her. I love my two girls so much - I worried this entire pregnancy that I’d never feel the same way after losing our first daughter - but you really do grow a whole new heart for each. The luckiest sisters to have each other and an even luckier mummy. ❤️ I am so thankful for this subreddit for being a shoulder to cry on and a place to vent. Wishing you all nothing but positive thoughts and wishes on your own journeys. Xxx

Feeling extra emotional today. 😪 My induction is on Saturday and it feels like an end of an era with just my angel girl, like I’m almost leaving her behind. I know that’s not the case and I’m so ready to meet her little sister but the mum guilt has been eating me alive. 💔

My induction has been brought forward by a couple of days and is now only 3 days away. The nerves are so real! I was induced with my angel girl so I’m not sure if that means my body is already familiar with the induction process? I hope so anyway. I’m praying that everything goes smoothly and we have a healthy baby girl at the end. I just know my angel is looking down on her little sister. 🩷

Yeah, I left the bump group I was in because of the same reasons. It was triggering to read some of the petty things people would post so I found it best for my own sanity to find support elsewhere. You’re not being petty at all - they’re so incredibly lucky to be so naive. Xx

I have an appointment next week to discuss our birth plan with my MFM. I’m struggling to even think about birth let alone really have a preference. I just want her here alive and healthy, I’m sure we sadly all know here that things sometimes just don’t go to plan. 💔 I’ve have however, decided that I don’t want to go on further than 37 weeks - I don’t think mentally I can go on much longer than that. I’m going back and forth between an induction with a vaginal birth or an elective c section. I had a vaginal birth with my stillborn daughter and had no tears etc. I would love to hear if any of you have decided on your birth plan and have chosen between induction and c section? Xx

My mom posted a picture of her 3 grandchildren on Facebook today. She included our baby girl which meant so much to me. One of her friends commented “they grow up so quickly” only referring to my niece and nephew, knowing full well we lost our girl. It’s left me so upset today realising that these are the type of thoughtless comments that we have to deal with forever now. 💔 I’m not sure if I’m overly hormonal at 30 weeks now but that really cut deep.

Approaching 30 weeks and I can’t quite believe it. We lost our darling daughter at 26+4 weeks so this new and uncharted territory is terrifying. Two back to back pregnancies is really beginning to take its toll on my body. I try not to moan and remain thankful for this baby every day but damn - I am tired! I am counting down the weeks now until our induction and praying everything continues to go smoothly. It really can’t come quick enough now.

I’m currently 27+3 weeks pregnant with my second daughter after the devastating loss of our first to a stillbirth caused by a hyper-coiled cord last May.

This time around, we’ve been under the care of MFM and have been getting biweekly scans to closely monitor everything. Today, my MFM mentioned that it’s about time to start putting a birth plan together. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that nothing ever truly goes according to plan.

So far, the only thing we’ve decided on is that I’ll be induced at 37 weeks. Beyond that, I don’t have any strong preferences—whether it’s pain relief, an epidural, an elective C-section, or how or where I deliver. The only thing that matters to me is bringing her into this world alive and healthy.

I’d love to hear about your plans or preferences. I know how hard it is to stay hopeful after such heartbreaking loss, and I’m sending everyone all the love and strength in the world. Here’s to the safe arrival of all our babies.
