Hi girls we desperately want another baby but are petrified because of last time!
I ended up hospitalised with pre eclampsia at 37 weeks and a week later they decided to deliver by cesarean. Although I have scoliosis (curvature of the spine), so turned out they couldn't physically use a spinal or epidural on me so ended up having to be put to sleep! I had a red band on stating that I was allergic to morphine but they still pumped me full of it anyway! Ending in me getting severe kidney failure and nearly not getting to meet my DD.
so yeah it was pretty horrific but we got through it and it was so worth it for my little ray of sunshine!
Obviously this time round I would go to a different hospital but I still can't help being terrified and OH even more so!!
I would love a natural birth but due to scoliosis could have a severely slanted pelvis so not sure it's possible and OH didn't want to risk it last time!
I'm filled with excitement and anticipation to get my BFP but know that as soon as I do the panic will kick in!
Anyone else feel like this?
Sorry it's so long winded xx
