Possible C-Section =(

in Pregnant after 35

Morning ladies!!

I'm finally able to sit in front of my computer as my bedrest restrictions have finally been lifted and I can have a little more freedom for the next few weeks....hoping to build up my jelloey legs so I'm not exhausted after climbing a set of stairs!!

Sprout has decided that he/she would rather be standing up, head in ribs than laying heads down like a good little baby should be Tongue Tied  They offered an inversion but with all the problems I've had during this pregnancy I really don't want to take any more chances and possibly put the baby in any kind of ditress resulting in an emergency c-section.  We've done the exercises she recommended but they don't seem to have done much.  I have an ultrasound scheduled for Thursday and if he/she hasn't turned by then we will be scheduling a date to have the baby.

Hope all is well with you ladies, I'll be able to be on a bit more and can enjoy posting replies instead of just being a lurker on my phone!!  Happy Tuesday!

    Good Luck...there is hope!! My DD was breech the entire PG and we had a c-section scheduled for 38 weeks...I went in for my checkup in my 37th week and somewhere between 36-37 weeks she turned. I never felt a darn thing..so I was shocked.

    Hope you have the same good luck!!!

    Glad you're off total bedrest and I hope that little one learns which way is south in a hurry.

    I hope baby moves! But if not, a c/section is not the end of the world - I had a great experience with mine, and ds and I were both healthy because of it!

    Hopefully your baby will cooperate with you! :)

    I've had 2 c-sections.  The 2nd was much easier because I didn't labor any.  I found the sooner you can move around the easier the recovery is.

    I'll have a 3rd c-section with this baby.

    Thanks ladies!!  It's good to be back Shelley!!  I'm not as upset about the possiblity as I was last week....it's been such a long road that it would be nice to have a set date of when Sprout will be joining us on the outside!!

    GL,,,Do whatever you can do to get the baby to move. I had many exercises for DD #1 and she did turn the day before we were scheduled for a c. I had a vaginal with her and 5 days ago I had a c section --It is much worse of a recovery. I feel like a truck ran me over. GL and I hope that there is still time for the baby to move :0)

    same here.  hold out hope for turning, but know if it doesn't happen, c-section is a safe option.

    ditto - I hope for you that LO turns, but a c/s section is not the end of the world.  I don't regret having mine at all.  It's true what they say, the quicker you get out of bed and move around, the better & quicker your recovery will be.  GL!  :o)

    GL! I hope LO turns, but a happy, healthy baby with a nice round head is nice too :) Everyone is right about the recovery - get moving as soon as possible.
