So sorry they found something wrong I was hoping it would all be ok for you. If this has developed during pregnancy and not something you had before there's a good chance it will go back to normal once baby is born and you've recovered. If it stays they will prescribe medication to prevent extra strain on your heart and improve any symptoms. I would imagine they will offer you a c section (if I've understood correctly what is wrong from your description. as pushing could put you under too much strain and decrease the likelihood of a full recovery. I would ask them to send a cardiac nurse or someone similar to have a good chat with you and explain everything if they haven't already.

Yh im back to antinatal for the cardiac doctor to come and see do obs and then make a plan just so nervouse of losing her so in my head im almost 37 and she is healthy size so capable of surviving i just want her out as panakin that my hearts gonna just not be able to work and i dony think i vould live knowing that it was my fault that something happened to her xx

[dinidani]

So after stable obs till monday morning they decided that they needed to rush induction so on tuesday 26 i was given a sweep where they acidently brock my waters because she didnt want to come it was so pain full never had an epidural before with all my boys but she was fighting against it soo much that and my heart kept on flucturating but was induced 10.50 am tuesday finally got to meet my very little girl at 21.55 in the most peacefull way as my body just naturally contracted her so peacfully and naturally i had to stay 24 hours on high dependency on 24 hour monitoring with an increase again of medication so now cant breast feed but we are on recovery my heart should get better over time but thats it no more children she wasnt a bad size 5lb 8oz xx
