Topic: Yay some good news!! Posted: 07 April 2006 at 5:16pm |
I've been given the "Green Light" to have a VBAC!!! Here I was so worried that I would have no choice but to have a c-section coz Bubs was lying transverse and now he has turned so he is head down AND he is even facing the right way!
Now all I have to do is keep him that way
I got to have another scan too. I measured WAYYYYYY bigger than my dates so I'm looking at having another 9 pounder.
Oh and also I'm only allowed to go 1 week overdue so that means that I will be having my baby in 8 weeks whether or not he wants to come out of his comfy spot.
I'm soooooooooooo pleased that I can have the trial of labour, just hoping it goes well this time. ~Mental thoughts "I CAN DO IT!!!!"~
LOL!

Lol I'm sooo happy. I was really dreading the thought of having to have a c-section... I know I still might have to have one if things don't go right but at least now I get a "trial of labour" instead of being forced into having an elective
So I'm having "positive thoughts".....I can I can I CAN push this baby out!!! Tee hee hee!
Lol sorry I'm on cloud Nine

Oh sorry, its a "Vaginal Birth After C-section". I didn't get to push my first out so I'm very excited its likely I will get to push this baby out like most people.
Lol my fiancee is going "so are ya ready to push a watermelon out of a keyhole???"
Cheeky bugger!!

Yay that is good news. My doctor has told me that next time I am pregnant there is a 70% chance that I will be able to have a normal vaginal delivery, but I don't think I am as excited as you as I am the biggest wimp out there.

to try to keep bubs sitting in the right position, instead of sitting on a couch or lying back, straddle a chair so the back of it is pressing into your stomach - obviously a kitchen chair or computer chair, not a laz y boy. if you keep sitting like this then the only comfortable position for baby is the RIGHT way..... well, its worth a try?

Hi ladies I'm still on Cloud Nine!
I'm doing my best to keep my posture in the right place to keep Bubs well positioned. Its actually quite hard, especially in the car, I've had to put a pillow under my bum to keep my pelvis tilted forward.
I'm quite short so my fiancee Spencer has jokingly called it a "booster seat" & saying if I need to see over the steering wheel a phonebook would be better...Grrrz cheeky bugger!!!
Still just about nothing can ruin my good mood.
LOL at Robyn for wanting a c-section! I was getting to the point of asking for an elective c-section just so I could meet my baby 2 weeks early, but since its looking so good to do it naturally I'm just going to have to wait
