That is down to DH. He asked when would we be looking at the c-section happening and doc told us the 3 dates that he would be doing surgery around my due date and we opted for 39+2 as with DD I went into labour at 40weeks exactly and DS I went into labour at 39+5.
Ash I am not opting for VBA2C as it is not really done in Ireland plus my failed VBAC with DS was the same reason as DD. 3 day labour starting with regular contractions 20 mins apart for the 1st day on the 2nd day dropping from 20 mins to 3 mins apart. On the 3rd day( the day I went into hospital with both) I was only 2cm and never progressed from that ( Well I did get to 3cm with DS but I was back to 2cm the next time they checked) both times my waters broke naturally in the hospital too. With DD I was on the oxytocin drip ( Was overcontracting as the contractions were not the problem, my body was going into shock blood pressue and temp were dropping continuously over the 8hrs I was on the drip - they decided to section. We DS i took no drugs at all and was in the labour ward for 14hrs staying active on the ball and rocking my hips by the bed contractions got down to less then 1 min apart, the pressure was unbelievable and I was telling the midwifes that I wanted to push, but low and behold I was still only 2cm - and was taken off to surgery not long later.
This time i do not fancy another 3 day labour - 2 days of proper intense contractions that go nowhere. I have a benign tumour that is wrapped around my spinal cord and I always wonder if that is in some way blocking my progress in labour as none of the women in my family apart from me have ever had a problem giving birth.
Babypink finger cross for you. Are you having another scan?
Pearl you are lucky with my ds2 i had a date at 36weeks...i havent had a hospital appointment yet but ill ask in a few weeks.
In australia, if you had 2 csections they wont let me go for a vbac...i dont know how i feel about not know what a natural birth is but oh well...
Just got my BFP on Monday and AF was officially late as of yesterday so looks like the due date should be April 30th. I go in for a blood test next Wednesday.
Babypink, I'm sure everything will be fine at your next scan. :)
