revisiting the c-section question
I chatted with a friend on Sunday and it's brought a lot of worries back
to the surface. I think she feels a that I'm a bit too relaxed about just seeing how things go and really fears that I may injure myself during birth. I've basically been working on the principle that I'll get warning and can take appropriate action, but I realise this may be partially flawed. After my first birth, my pelvis and hips were very unstable for a few days, which nearly resulted in some interesting falls and whilst I was in hospital I was basically confined to bed as I couldn't safely get anyway. This will be a third birth, not a first birth, my ligaments and muscles will be in a different state to how they were then. Also that birth was not of a physically normal baby, IUGR meant his fontanelles were significantly enlarged, which probably meant an awful lot more head molding than average occurred. All of which means I'm back in the groove of worrying that perhaps 3rd baby, plus the injuries of 2nd time around, plus a normal baby (hopefully), could turn out to be too much, even if I am feeling tip top in the run up to the birth! But unfortunately it seems like that is an unanswerable question and I've really no idea how to approach resolving that. Cheers Anne |
