Hi
have posted many times on here recently about different things...
I Am hoping my consultant will want me to have a c section (see other thread on reasons for this..I almost lost DS due to pelvis problems, fetal distess,akward positon in womb & it not being detected etc..).....
however, if this does not happen (if I go into labour before planned c section or they actually decide not to do one) I really feel a water birth would be good for me...
I could be in an upright position (which would help with my pelvis misalignment i think? & hopefully help baby out )?????????? anyone got any advice on this??
However, the BIG drawback/worry for me is losing my baby! as I nearly lost my DS last time, one minute he was fine, next minute his heartbeat dropped & he was got out with cut & forceps just in time...I am so frightened this could happen again & so would want babys heart to be constantly monitored? As this was the only thing that saved him last time!
However, is this possible in water? I know they have waterproof dopplers, but thats no good as I want somthing thats checking her the whole time im in the water??? does anything like this exist?
