Date for c section!

Eeeeek how exciting! Did you have a csection with your previous?

How exciting!! Do you mind me asking why you're having a c-section? I've been told they will induce me but tbh I think I would rather go straight to c-section as induction was the one thing I wanted to avoid x

yeah I went in for induction but it failed miserably witch resulted in a emergency section on the end.. I always said after that horrific experience of induction and it failing I would want to have a elective section next time however it’s been medically advised as I have a mass on my placenta witch there’s a risk it could rupture so section is recommended this time anyway witch I am still happy about just want her safe! And your well with in your rights to request one lovely instead of a induction🙂 xx

Thanks gorj, everything ive read or seen about induction just sounds traumatic tbh. If I knew for sure I could have one and wouldn't lead to emergency section I might try but just have no confidence in it.
Especially as bringing him early just forcing my body to do something its not ready for. I think I'll stick to my guns and request section instead of induction. Thanks xx

that’s what they tried to do with my and my body and baby wouldn’t cooperate and it was exhausting and it just felt like torture as contractions where forced I wasn’t getting a break at all from them but yet I wasn’t progressing at all in labour and it was just stressing me stressing baby stressing my husband seeing someone in so much pain and knowing nothing is happening it was horrible. I know not all are like that but mine was absolutely horrific. And I was so so so grateful for the section in the end. And your with in your rights to so absolutely go for it stick to them guns 💪 💙🩷

How many weeks are you? I’m thinking we will be having a section as I have a low lying placenta and also big baby, I’ve got a 30 week growth scan tomorrow and appointment with the consultant so wonder if they’ll give me a date then? Xx

I am 28 and 5 and yeah they did tell me they would normally give the date at 32 weeks but he had the dairy open on his computer so he just booked me right in but I get the information pack on my 32 week growth scan😊 so most likely get it then hun xx

yes I’ve got scans every 2 weeks from tomorrow to keep an eye on baby’s size and my placenta but they did seem pretty sure I’d need a section as I also have an additional lobe of placenta which is unlikely to move. I’m so pleased you’ve got your date and I will ask them tomorrow xx

definitely worth the ask then you can have your count down! Shit gets real when you have a date😂 xx

haha I imagine! They mentioned to be about 36 weeks but I’m really not wanting to wait until then for a date so I’ll have to see what they say xx

Mines on the 12th! So exciting isn’t it

absolutely! 😁
