Pregnant after IF

change of plans

had my weekly biophysical (and last growth) u/s this afternoon and the first thing I asked the tech was what position she was in.  She immediately said head down and I almost said "Get the $#%^ outta here!"

So apparently she decided to flip sometime in the last day or two.  And my c-section on Thursday is now cancelled so I can try for a vaginal birth.  

Part of me is really happy about this and part of me is a little upset.  With my abdominal surgery history, it is much better if I don't have to have a c-section, but I was so ready to meet her on Thursday.

So she is head down but still has not moved very far down into my pelvis and my cervix is still completely closed.  My ob thinks I'm going to go past my due date now but they won't let me go more than a week past my due date.

So now I wait and hope things start to happen soon.

Re: change of plans

  • This happened to a friend of mine on the day of her c-s -- they did one last u/s to check her and baby had flipped at the last possible moment.  Hopefully she'll decide to make her appearance soon, now that she's in the right position for it!

  • Great that you can avoid the c/s, but I would be bummed too if I hyped myself up to meet her and then had to wait till she decided she wanted to meet me!  LOL

     Best of luck!  Hopefully she just drops down and you start progressing soon.
