Fil has brought me in, the have seen me without my notes. Baby still not engaged and still back to back, but they are sending me for a scan to check fluid levels, so get an unexpected viewing of baby! They will then do the sweep!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Let us know how you get on. Nice to have an unexpected scan. Are they concerned about fluid levels? X

 

[darkstar]

The scan is a nice surprise, make sure they stay away from the genitals, you're team yellow aren't you? I had a scan last week and his junk was very clearly visible!

 

[Soniamillie01]

^ his junk

 

[mellywelly]

Didn't see any bits, think they wanted to check levels with me leaking last time. Think it's about 8.6 lb, ouch! Just waiting to be called for sweep now! Cant believe the little blighter hasn't engaged!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Yah for no bits, team yellow all the way! Hope the sweep is ok hun x

Cervix completly closed so couldn't do sweep. Induction booked for 11th if nothing happens before then. They will only give me one dose of the gel up foo this time, no drip, if doesn't work its straight for a c section. He also spoke of risk of the shoulder thing, he wants a Dr there at delivery incase.

Update- I'm now bleeding, presume this is normal and just from the midwife probing about?

 

[Leinzlove]

Wow, I wouldn't have expected to hear cervix closed and no engagement. Maybe thats why I couldn't have one with DD prior to labor I never had any cervical changes. I just assumed they didn't do them in the US.

Your baby just loves your womb and is so safe and comfy. Never wants to leave.

8lbs 6oz... Yikes! And they will let you go a week more. I'm glad they are watching you and will have a DR. there just in case.

Ah sorry they couldn't do it, did they say shoulder risk due to size?

 

[mellywelly]

I think thats what he was hinting at Sonia, but seemed more of a precaution rather than a worry.

I have a feeling the next 'batch' of babies due will all go over due date

I'm certain I will, my instincts are pretty strong on it plus my others were late
