I'll be 38 weeks on Friday with our 3rd baby. Our first two (4 yrs & 2 yrs) left me with 3 rd degree tears. We (my husband & I) also run our own business which starts back on the 4th & have very little family support.
Our consultant wants me to have a c section at 38 weeks but I asked to be induced, again at 38 weeks. I really don't want a c-section for so many reasons. Went for a sweep on Friday just gone & can't do anything as baby not engaged. However realised induction my never have been an option as this is my third baby they probably won't engage until I go into labour! Heart broken. Have a consultant meeting & just don't know what to do. Any one had two 3rd degree tears before third baby? If so what did you do xx
