Congratulations hun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

how does it work with spd, does it go away as soon as you have had the baby?

It normally improves drastically straight away, and did after my last baby was born; but my spd wasn't as severe that time. THis time I have been told to expect 24 -48 hrs of immobility -was even offered a commode for downstairs lol, then up to 6 weeks still requiring crutches -hoping not obviously. I will need further physio post baby too which will hopefully help, but I found that it never actually totally went away the last time -still felt achey when AF was due, climbing lots of stairs etc.

So fed up now, been to see MW and little lazy sod baby is sitting free in my plevis so they couldn't do the sweep -too risky due to possible cord prolapse Feel I am letting everyone down too, stupid body not doing as it should

On a more posiitve note -many congras to tabby -sorry to moan when you went over much longer tham me, I mean I AM only T+1 and poor you 4 day labour, hope you are recovering well now xx xx

Spu -yay for your sweep on Sat ,I have another appt on Monday ,but if baby is still not engaged then that's that!! And with a 4th baby he'll prob NOT engage until labour
Hope your goes well xxx

Oh wanna, I am so sorry, I really feel for you. You are so positive in this thread when it must be so frustrating! And you are not letting anyone down, it seems that everyone is so keen on being around for when the baby is born, but really you are none the wiser as to when lo is planning on making his entrance.

Thanks for answering my spd question! I hope the recovery is not to long.

I hope the sweep will somehow tell your cervix to behave and get into a more favourable position.

Well after getting told my LO was 3/5 engaged last time, my MW told me today that LO is only 1/5 aaarrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhh but she was quite positive about the symptoms i've been having were heading in the right direction, she is going to do my sweep at 40+3

Isn't just my LO going backwards then??? I am going to have to bounce on my ball til Monday to make sure he is as low as possible for hopefully my sweep lol. It is frustrating though, isn't it???
So, unless he comes sooner -my sweep will be 40+ 6 - C'mon baby boy, mummy is very impatient now xxxx

I think babies can engage at the last minute can't they.. when my midwife tried doing my sweep she said she felt his head and then he popped back out again! God knows what that means lol!
Made me feel strange though. Just chill hun.. trust me they can't stay in there forever! (Get me with the PMA today, think OH must've drugged me with something ha!) xxxx

Yep , my last two never engagaed at all until labour started so not expecting to this time either - but my mw said last week that as long as he was fixed at the brim and cervix really favourable then she'd do it in the CMU but not holding my breath haha -he is getting higher rather than lower - terrible heartburn today because of it

Gonna bounce bounce bounce, grab DH for some loving later and maybe get on my hands n knees and do some crawling - if my pelvis is okay.
