Hi everyone, I'm due on 13th October
I had pre-eclampsia with my first baby, they caught it at 31 wks and I was in hospital for 2 wks until I started getting ill, and they tried to induce her. The heartbeat dropped to dangerous levels so I was rushed in for an emergency c section!
I'm hoping I don't get the same problems this time, I'm being closely monitored by my consultant and other hospital doctors as well as my community midwife. I don't want another c section- the pain afterwards is unbearable! But they don't induce people who've had sections because of pressure on the scar, so if I don't go into labour by myself I will have to have another
This is a bit of a miracle baby as we were trying to concieve for 2 years, before we were finally given Clomid, but as I was waiting for a period to start taking it, I discovered I was pregnant! As we'd been trying for so long, I'm doubly paranoid about the slightest pain, etc!
