Hi Ladies!!
Thank you so much for looking out for me! I never thought I would be noticed if I was not on for a few days, ohhhh I'm cared for, I feel all emotional!!
bloody pregnancy hormones!
So - NO BABY! Yep, still no baby........well where have I been? First of all just feeling generally shit with these pains that come and go and dont seem to be getting any worse or any better and just keeping me awake at night now. Also had a barrage of tests and scans yesterday and they have confirmed I have masses and masses of amniotic fluid and officially diagnosed polyhydraminosis, so bubs has a swimming pool around her. I'm measuring a massive 44 weeks now and baby has a minimum of 6.3cm around her on all sides.......
The good news in all of this is that they have confirmed baby is healthy at 7 pounds 4 and not a biff!!! (I had been told she would be a 9.45lbr by now) Yay! My vagina may not be as damaged as initially presumed! Woo hoo, no designer vagina surgery team on standbye just yet!!
However they have decided it will be really dangerous if my waters break as the wee bugger has floated out of the fully engaged position and into 3/5ths putting her at risk of cord prolapse (head onto cord when waters go cutting off blood and oxygen supply) and I'm now at high risk of major postpartum bleeding....
Soooo, the plan?......well I don't know yet, I'm on warning to head straight to delivery if my waters break at home in the next 24 hours. Otherwise middy is checking me at home every two days as BP is still high and legs look like baloons and I'm due to see the specialist in the next few days when they will decide to book me in to rupture my waters themselves
so they trickle out rather than flood the place removing the risks posed to bumpy and I......
And thats it really.......just sitting at home sleeping and sitting in the bath waiting........and waiting....and waiting.......comon baby!!!! Get out!!!
I hope all of you are doing ok, I'm going to try and catch up on posts and babies born I have missed in the last few days!!
Thanks again for looking out for lil ol me!!
I have promised Chocoholic I shall get my mobile credited up in the next day so you are kept up to date of any developments should I not manage to get online!!
