    I am 23 weeks and I just got diagnosed with placenta previa. I have been bleeding for 3 weeks now and it’s very consistent. I have to wear a pad. Not dark red or filling up a pad in an hour but bleeding like the last couple of days of your period. It’s nerve wrecking!

    I PPROM at 35 weeks. My son’s super healthy. Only needed a few minutes of PPV at birth to help transition but he was and has always been super healthy. We don’t know why my water broke when it did. I didn’t go into labour so we decided to induce to avoid infection. In now 15 weeks and I’m starting on vaginal progesterone and cervical length screenings will be every two weeks. If it helps, great. I’m actually really concerned about my mood. I’ve been off birth control for 10 years as estrogen/progesterone/IUDs all made me super depressed. Even the “local, low dose hormones” in IUDs made my mood crash. This is a pregnancy after stillbirth so I’m already emotionally a bit fragile and now I’m scared I’m going to be going down into a deep hole. I already had PPA with my first. Anyone have any advice or experience?

    Thank you for the video. Wondering if it sounds like I have it? I wasn't bleeding at all but then after I was intimate with my husband there was a small amount of blood. It is now really light the next day very inconsistent spotting. I'm 24 weeks and my anatomy scan at 20 weeks came back completely normal. Does it sound like I have it, or maybe just hitting the cervix being too rough when being intimate? Thank you!!

    Baby girl is breech. Will be having a c section just don’t know my date yet. I’m scared to pass out on the table lol. And for recovery since my bed is kind of high up. I also don’t want to take Tylenol because I don’t like how it makes me feel so if there any other meds I can take I’ll appreciate suggestions. And if I can leave the hospital soon after I’d love that. I don’t like hospitals and I have a lot of ptsd so I hope I can go home soon after. Obviously not like 6 hrs but sooner than 5 days stay.

    Through my first pregnancy I never knew I had pubic symphysis dysfunction. I went to physical therapy at 9 months postpartum for SI joint pain, and ended up finding out I had the pubic symphysis dysfunction when I had an adjustment 8 weeks into PT and my pubic symphysis popped so loud that everyone in the office heard it 🤯🤣 it was a literal BOOM. I felt so much relief afterward. This pregnancy at 10 weeks along I’m in so much less pain than the first due to prepping with a large focus on daily physical therapy exercises for my back and core for over a year before getting pregnant again. I am hoping this lack of pain continues as I’m still performing my exercises (with pregnancy safe adjustments of course). I also had round ligament pain starting at about 12-13 weeks with my first and am now getting it AGAIN but a bit earlier at almost 10 weeks. Mine is just more of an achy nag that comes and goes. All in all, it is crazy how much you learn from your first and then subsequent pregnancies. I’m so thankful to be armed with this knowledge!

    Here after a 2 year battle with ocd and anxiety; i suspect actually its trauma based from our birth. I was a midwife prior to my second son's birth; i had zero control, zero autonomy, was gaslighted, my baby was pretty much tortured due to gdm and their machines being faulty when drawing his blood therefore needing repeated bleedings. Horrific. Still surviving.
