Sept/Oct/November Roll call cont...

[Mrs_Incredible]

Tomgirl. I hope baby stays put a little bit longer. Rest as much as you can. Hugs x

Coocoo Not long now... You can do it lol!! X

Afm, had mw today at 33 weeks. Baby still breech but moved to the left side for the first time ever, especially for the appointment it would seem as a couple of hours later she was back to my right side. Never had a baby breech at this point before. So worried I'll end up with a section for my 4th/last baby. Dh doesn't want me to go for an assisted breech delivery. My gut says its not worth the risk too. Id never live with myself if i put her at risk. And what if that ended in section anyway? At least a planned section is calm. I just hope she moves head down like her 3 brothers did!!

Hows everyone else doing? X

Have you checked out the website spinning babies Ms_incredible?
Some techniques for getting baby in position. I've never had breech so no experience there but I was checking it out to even get baby into my pelvis more as she is sitting right on top of it apparently and it's quite painful!!
Worth a look maybe

Coocoo, I've been trying an improvised version of the "lying on an ironing board against the sofa" minus the ironing board my 3 yo would see that as something to climb on! Now its confirmed she's breech i better read through the site again and do as much as i can to move her! Got so much still to do and i just have zero energy or motivation everytime i think of what still needs done x

The cot is up and the pink bedding looks so beautiful if a little strange! Gym ball pumped up too. Operation get baby head down will now commence. So much else to do in freaking out a bit

I had an ultrasound done on Friday she's still a girl! Turns out my amniotic fluid is on the high level which is creating extra pressure on my cervix. I also have a slight previa which the doc thinks will resolve itself as my cervix thins out.

Baby girl was breech during the ultrasound she moves so much that her position is different every time I go in. The radiologist said it's because of the extra fluid it makes it easier for her to roll around. Hopefully that wont be an issue when it comes down to me actually going into labor and that she will be able to get into position.

I'm on strict bed rest which has just been awful, I am so bored out of my mind!!! I have been watching crocheting videos to take up something new to do to keep my hands busy! Hoping I can get through at least the next few weeks without too much activity. I am now 33 weeks I have a baby shower being thrown for me on the 12th hoping she makes it until the last week or 2 of the month. 36 weeks would be good!

Nothing new to add except.... I FEEL SO FAT! I've only got 4 weeks to go. Breasfeeding better use up these fat stores haha

I sorted out baby's cupboard today, hubby got some ahelving from Ikea. Organised what bubs is going to wear home and bought a post-partum belly belt as my DRAM is pretty bad. Anyone got good stretch marks solutions??

[Mrs_Incredible]

Tomgirl - yay for scan showing girl!! Its always nice to see again!! bedrest sounds tough as much as I'd like the idea lol, the reality must be frustrating. I've got a breech buba who likes the one position and its freeking me out.
Peebell - 4 weeks eek!! I'm feeling so heavy. Not got much of an appetite. Think her position and the bh are making me feel big. Bh are rampant when i get half way through a regular day. So slow!! With so much to do. Sucks.

Had a fright today and went in to be monitored. I was in such a state and really frightened. Put facing a section in perspective although I'm still hoping she'll move
Hugs to all mamas on the home straight xx

[Peebell85]

What was the fright Mrs I?

[Mrs_Incredible]

She usually has quiet spells and i overdid things on Monday but thought she was just having a quiet day. But she was quiet from Monday afternoon right through to Tuesday morning. No.movements at all. Kept thinking she'll move when i go to bed, wake up, get up, get in the car, arrive at the hospital ... But nothing. I was so scared. Just figured how could i feel nothing when she's so big now at 33 weeks? She didn't move til the monitor annoyed her but her hb got picked up right away. The midwife was lovely and put me on a monitor right away. She was quiet the rest of the day Tuesday with a few movements but more active Wednesday. Just felt so scared xx

[kitkat18]

So glad the midwife was lovely!! Scary for you and glad she is happy and healthy, perhaps a very calm baby??? Xx
