Hi, I posted here a few days ago from hospital just wondered if anyone had been in the same position.
Basically, my luck is absolutely rotten right now, I dislocated my knee and snapped the 3 main bones of my ankle a week ago. I've had ORIF surgery and I've been given a zimmer frame but being 38 weeks pregnant with a big ol'belly hopping isn't easy especially with the baby's head engaged! and to top it all off I can't grab the zimmer tightly as i've got really bad carpal tunnel!!!
anyway that's the background bit...to those who have given birth in a half leg cast what options were you given and how did you find the birth? will being bedbound effect how soon labour will come on? I had my show on Monday up to Wednesday but it's stopped now!
Cheers x
