Hi
Saw my consultant to make a plan for birth of baby I am currently 35 weeks. Babies cord is wrapped times 3 around neck.
Dr thought it maybe be best that I don't go into labour naturally and go into hospital for induction at 37 weeks and then monitor with possibility of section if baby doesn't appear to be coping with labour or any other complications.
I know that this is the safest and all that matters is baby is ok but I hate hospitals and the thought of induction (I was induced last time with the drip due to waters breaking and no contractions)
Has anybody else had experience of this and if so what was the outcome? Also would I be bettter just asking for C section instead of goiing through the whole induction process?
I have another few days before I am scanned again to check if baby has somehow unravelled itself. Is there any positions/ exercises I could do to encourage this??
Hope somebody can give me some reassurance as I feel I am panic striken at the thought of induction and a longer stay in hospital due to c section!
