Long time no speak, hope everyone is doing well!
I see we've had a baby born!!!!🤍 And some new names around here!!
Me and the girlies have made it to 34+5 and it's all starting to go tits up. Baby B is measuring 20% behind A all of a sudden, so could be a growth restriction going on. Her femur is measuring like 30 weeks as opposed to 34 weeks. I think the sonographer is shit though. She never sounds confident. Scans have been sent to a fetal medicine specialist for review so awaiting a phone call. Placentas and fluid are being chcked twice a week now and growth scan every week. Got to have an iron infusion on Monday too as apparently they don't know how I'm functioning my iron is so low.
Got kept in yesterday due to high BP. Not bloody surprised after they told me we need to be referred to a fetal medicine specialist. CTG showed babies going crazy which was lovely to see as I don't feel them that much due to anterior placentas covering most of the front/sides.
Section is booked for 37+2 but it's likely now that'll be brought forward. Baby A is estimated 5lbs currently and Baby B is around 4lbs. Obviously it's never accurate, but hopefully if they need to come out sooner they're good weights currently...
Still spiralling about a section. Worried so much about how long and painful recovery will be along with them getting the spinal in me in the first place. I'm told bcus it's my first it shouldn't be too long or painful
babies are head down now and if it wasn't for the prospect of potentially have a vaginal recovery and a section recovery at the same time, I'd be opting for vaginal all day long. Rip me open and stitch me up bcus at least it ain't 7 layers of tissue/skin/organ.
Also, what is it with men avoiding the jobs that need doing? Asked husband to build the cots with me about 6 weeks ago. Kept asking. Never got done, so did it myself. Still haven't built the next to me, or the moses baskets. The room is still a shit tip and he needs to help move some stuff around. Not sure when he's going to get the hint that these babies could be pulled out any day!!! Maybe he's in denial.
Anyway, that's my update. Enough from me.
I thought “well ok I guess we’re doing this on gas and air then, here we go 
”
thanks for the recommendation.
just waiting for genetic disorder results to come back which is killing me. Please all pray for me and my baby xx
I didn’t want to sit around up there today and wait for my results, and as I don’t have any pain or symptoms I think it was fine to just go home. Hoping I don’t need any sort of management. 
now to agree on a boy name otherwise he'll be called baby 2 until his first birthday lmao! Why are boy names so hard
