I know it’s probably been updated since then, but we had it 3 years ago for our daughter. Absolutely loved it and will be cleaning it ready to use for our next babies arrival in June!

How are you doing @Nayalove96, hun?
Id Like to retract my statement about c sections being a breeze
day 2 has hit me like a f5 tornado I’m in utter agony 
I haven’t been resting because I felt fine so that’s more than likely why!That's a shameId Like to retract my statement about c sections being a breeze
I mean it's major abdominal surgery.Id Like to retract my statement about c sections being a breeze
Nothing breezy about it, rest is the most vital part of recovery
Hot water bottle is the only thing that helps mine, so nice to take one to bed. I got up at 2am to make one the other night the joys of pregnancy
@WeHadFunRight How's it going?
Did you find out about the wiki link?

After a failed induction ("failure to progress" after two gel attempts, my waters being manually broken and 7 hours of the drip), baby arrived at 21.55 tonight with a cat 1 emergency section weighing 5 pounds 8 ounces. I'm so in love and in shock my beautiful baby is here and he's ok. Also just having the infamous tea and toast now and it's true when they say it's possibly the best meal of your life
Hubby felt baby kick for the first time last night. My goodness did I cry like a baby. It was such a special moment because we never thought we'd be lucky enough to have children. It's made it all feel so real now.
Another morning waking up overdue 
It was intermittent all day, hot water bottle helping a little but not much touching it at all - think the maternity advice midwife thought I was a bit mad for calling but at one point I did wonder if it was a sign of pre term labour it was so intense and off/on. Seems to have got better with some paracetamol but I can feel it nagging already and I’ve only just got up and showered. Currently ordering a bump band on Amazon to see if that helps!Hot water bottle is the only thing that helps mine, so nice to take one to bed.

@WhatABore did you find anything helped with your dizziness in your 2nd preg? And did you manage to have a natural Labour?
I felt dizzy for about 2 hours last night, couldn’t even manage to eat my dinner & got myself so worked up about how will I give birth when I can’t lay flat for a c section but can’t sit up or stand for a natural one.
Pointless worrying I know but I’m so upset at not even being able to leave the flat by myself or eat a meal without getting dizzy!

Have your midwives done any further tests to make sure you're not low in anything?
And yes, all 3 were vaginal births
My doctor has ordered some updated blood tests so will get those done today & I’m hoping they show low iron or something that can be fixedNope. Nothing Unfortunatley.

Thank you!
It’s so random when it happens, I’d rather it had some sort of pattern so at least I could get some things done I would have thought they would have rang you by now! If not can you call them? They told me it takes 2 days for the results to come back for my area
I got a mixture of nappy brands, I wasnt sure either
Yes you’d have heard by now, the results would be flagged directly to the antenatal team so it would have been picked up by another midwife/support worker. With nappies it’s worth just trying different brands, don’t stock up on multiple packs of the same brand, it all depends on your baby and what suits them best because I don’t use the same as I did even 3 years ago. Same with wipes, especially now they’re all becoming plastic free x

It isn't your midwife that contacts you/looks at your results.
You would have heard something by Tuesday.
I'd suggest buying a pack from each place and trying them all. Every baby is different shape and so are all the nappies.
3 kids, oldest is 10 years and I've never bought a big brand nappy.
