I can’t even remember what I had and it was only 12 days ago.What should I eat before my c section? I don’t want to be bunged up but I do want to enjoy my last meal baby free
They gave me lactulose in the hospital afterwards and discharged me with a big bottle of it as well. It definitely helped me!it doesn’t sound silly at all! If it’s normal and consistent for you, I wouldn’t worry about it too much (easier said than done I know!). My first was a really active baby, posterior placenta, sounds very similar to your experience. Anything out of the ordinary for your baby I’d always get checked, even if just for the reassurance.
Thank you, maybe this is normal for a posterior placenta. I must even feel little twitches in their sleep. I have read that they have something called active sleep too where they move but are asleep, I must just feel absolutely everything 🫣
there’s such a difference between anterior/posterior! As I said, I was posterior for my first but anterior with this baby and I’m constantly stressing that I don’t feel him much, but my first baby was just like yours.
I don't know if there is anything that can actually speed it up. Saying that my waters went early hours of the morning. That day I went for quite a long walk, bounced on my ball, napped and by 6pm that night my contractions started. Good luck, won't be long until you have your little one in your arms
thank you!! Feels very surreal now that it’s actually happening. I went for a wee last night and when it happened I was stood there in shock like “now what”. Woke my husband up to tell him and he didn’t believe me because I was too calm!I don't know if there is anything that can actually speed it up. Saying that my waters went early hours of the morning.

they were so ‘meh’ about it, it was really funny. Today I feel rubbish, run down and nauseous. I would give anything for a decent night’s sleep!Exciting! I didn’t have an induction and same thing happened to me- went in after waters confirmed. I tried (lol) to stay calm, bounced on my ball, tried to walk around as much as I can, and tried to laugh a lot which sounds weird but it’s what kept me going- we watched Ali G
How exciting! Hope things are moving along for you now! Relax and don’t worry or put pressure on yourself about their 24h limits, you do not have to accept an induction!
In my experience id say wait until that 20 week scan comes around tbh
.I paid for a private gender scan at 15 weeks, so you can find out a bit earlier than 20 weeks if you wish to do so!In my experience id say wait until that 20 week scan comes around tbh
I wouldn't trust anything else personally though there is a lot to be said for those first peek DNA gender blood tests even those can be "contaminated" by environmental factors.
Others may be able to give a better answer though
Yeah definitly, I think that is way more reliable than the nub method the OP was asking about but tbh even though im due with my second very soon id actually not heard about looking at "nubs" on scans before lol.
I did post my scan picture on the nub theory Reddit, and they did guess right, but honestly it’s hard to say how accurate it is really when there’s a 50/50 chance anyway!
