Oh mini things sound tough at the moment for you

[Flava]

mini-that sound scary for sure ! GL to you I hope baby will be out soon all healthy and happy! Don't be so scared of a c/s it's not such a big deal at all. Only for a couple days after it's not so easy to get up. Hopefully you have some help around !

We didn't saw the doc yet .He will be 9 months next week but we only got appointment for the 26th .So I ask her then what she thinks.
Im not saying he got lack of mobility .He is moving around everywhere on his tummy (commando crawling I guess?) only not crawling on hands and knees yet. He do sit on his own but not sitting up alone .I have to sit him up and he do fall after awhile. I really don't think there is anything wrong with him I just think he do things slow.But I will ask for sure!
DD3 also had this therapy .A lady was coming to our house once a week to help. but I have to say it was pretty much useless Like we had to make her try to crawl over our legs or pillows ect. And we had to crawl around to show her how to do it ,now that was funny. And she didn't care at all lol .Also exercise her legs because they said maybe she had stiff muscles . Anyway turned out there is nothing wrong with her at 13 months she got tubes in her ears because she had fluid in it and 2 days after that she was walking on her own! They said it happens a lot because of the water they can't balance.
So I hope my boy is just lazy lol

dloui-that a sweet baby you have there! omg so cute and happy!
I guess Benjamin do the same things then just like West lol
Only I have to hold him a lot he comes to my feet and pooling on me to pick him up !
I do see sometimes he tries to pull his legs up to get on his knees so I hope it will happen soon. Still not sure what's up with the sitting ...

Thanks girls. I'm just really done with it all...the monitoring, the scans the appointments, the poking and here I am at 3am and can't sleep because all I can do is think. Dh and I had a good chat about it before bed and we are both concerned about the baby's health now. I think we've come to terms that a csec is more than likely unless I go into labor before that. I'll be ringing my Dr in the morning to tell her of my decision. I'm fortunate enough at to have a supportive husband. My dad lives around the corner and can help with school drop offs, my mum said she's happy to help out and will take time off work and I've a few of the school and kinder mums who are great. I suppose then its just me who needs to get my head around it after3 lovely vaginal births. The other thing positive about a csec is that they can tie my tubes while in there. Thanks for listening, it really helps x

Hes a great gestation as his health is definitely no1 I know its scary but your doing the right thing, you never know they may offer to induce you fully first then have the c/s standing by

[minimatron]

Thanks flava. They won't induce breech here, so its either spontaneous labor or csec. I don't think I'm scared of the procedure, I'm just worried about how I'll cope with 4 children and surgery, although I do have good supports, it will force meto actually not do anything and that might drive me insane...

[ELP]

Mini, how are things atm?? Did you arrange anything with the Dr!!

[minimatron]

I have a scan and a drs appointment today so I'll fill you in once I'm done. I had a few early morning pains over the past 2 days but nothing has eventuated. I'm really looking forward to having this baby. I feel a lot more calmer today. Thanks for checking up x

[minimatron]

Sorry I forgot to update.... So on Monday I had my scan which showed a similar result in that blood flows to the head were increased and now amniotic fluid has decreased as well. I have another scan on Thursday and if stable I'll have a stretch and sweep and if poor results I'll have a csec. If nothing happens by Monday I have another scan and either another stretch and sweep or ?csec. Its all kind of depending on scan results. I'll have baby soon though. I'm hoping to do it naturally particularly for recovery.
