My mood while writing this blog: Tired. |
Alright...
So just an update...I DIDN'T have the baby yet, but I was ambulanced to the nearest city from my town (a 2 and a half hour ambulance ride)....b/c my town can't deliver babies under 37 weeks and I was in labour and bleeding.
BUT I got to the city...and they stopped my labour...and I was in the hospital there for 2 days...(Got discharged today)...
Also they did 2 ultrasounds...and the baby is now a confirmed Breech (Footling)...and because of her position, there is no chance of her turning due to the angle of her spine and head...
So I DO need a C-section, and I cannot go back into labour b/c it could put me and baby in alot of harm.
I see the doc on monday in my town for a check up but I have to wait 2 friggen weeks for my "consultation" for my C-section....which puts me at 38 weeks and there's a good chance my labour will kick back in by then, so we are trying to get in sooner for the consult so we can schedule this C-section ASAP.
So if all goes well, I will be a mommy in the next couple weeks.

Friday, 28 Aug Thanks guys.Yeah, there's no option of just finding a different doctor..LOL..I livein a SMALL town..only 2 doctors even perform C-sections...and only 4 doctors see OB paitients...and you have no choice but to see which ever one is working that week.They didn't give me anything to stop labour...except ALOT of fluids b/c I hadn't fallen into active labour..just the start of early labour....And they gave me a ton of rounds of antibiotics in case babe was born...I'm just glad to be home...but not glad to have to wait so long to get to the bottom of this unorganized mess! supaflychick1982 -
Friday, 28 Aug I thought for sure you had your lil girl but glad you went to the hospital and everything is good so far. Hope you have your c-section before labor starts again. 5itis -

Friday, 28 Aug Wow, I was sure that Harper had arrived. Sorry to hear that she's breach, you would think that they would get you in sooner with your obvious threat of early labor. Take it easy, those meds that stop labor are wicked! They had me feeling yucky for 2 days. I'll be thinking of you. caseyrussell -
Thursday, 27 Aug Wow, been waiting to hear from you girl!!! Glad toh ear baby is OK for now! I hope you can get in sooner. I guess worst case scenario is that you go into labour again and they fly you out to the other hospital again. Its silly why they cant deliver babes before 37 weeks. I guess after another week all they can do is an emergency section in your town, if they even do c sections?? Good luck sweety. Be thinking about ya! happyforest -
