DR.S Yesterday

[bizymum]

Well I went to the Dr.s yesterday for my monthly check up....

The baby turned but the wrong way, it went from sideways to head up and feet down. I also have low amiotic fluid, which is worrying me alot. Anyone experience this? They are now keeping a close eye on it. I have to back in a week.

Also the Dr. wanted to put me a another inhaler cause of my cough. He put me on one at the beginning of PG, now he wants to put me another. I have never had inhalers before.....

So now I am resting as much as I can...I am so tired anyway.
Hopefully I can hold out for another 3/4 weeks....I will keep you all posted.

It's time to take good acare of yourself!! Is there any way you can go on early maternity leave and not do daycare until after the baby is born?

[JAK]

Sounds like you need some rest. I hope that you find out some good news next week. They don't really understand why babies turn the wrong way do they? I hope your little guy decides to turn again... I have heard of people with low fluid and I know that it's something they keep an eye on. Let us know what happens...

Glad you are resting and taking care of yourself. Keep us posted.

I had a friend who had low amniotic fluid during the last part of her pregnancy. She was due in four weeks and so the dr. put her on complete bedrest for two weeks and delivered the baby two weeks early and everything went fine. He had also suggested to her (although it's not confirmed that it really works) that she drink a LOT of water. 8o 8o
Good luck and make sure that you get enough rest...

Diane... :wave:

Rhonda,

Our last pregnancy was diagnosed as low fluid. It sent off several alarms. One thing that kept us positive was that the baby's growth was fine. She's now around six months old and has been doing well from day one. She wasn't head down either which caused some alarm as well, but she turned before it was all said and done. I don't know if you are experiencing this but once our pregnancy was diagnosed as high risk. A lot of extra tests were run throughout the pregnancy and some of the docs were really uptight for most of the duration. It was a pretty scary experience. I really think we spent more time at the doctors' offices than with the other three previous pregnancies combined. When are they going to recheck you?

I go to the Dr. on TUesday the 1st. He is going to decide what to do then. I will probably wind up having an ultra sound again.

It is so scary to go through this. My other two pregnancies wern't like this. I only have about 4/5 weeks left to go...
