Ok, well I'm 25 weeks gone and thinking about my birth plan as I want to make it clear what I can and cannot do. I'm just about to get delivery of my wheelchair too, so I want my midwife (who I'm sure I'll have never met) to know just how severe my SPD is.
I know about the best birth positions, finding out the max comfort zone for parting my legs etc.
But I was doing some reading and saw that some physios recommend not letting the mother out of a wheelchair for up to 48 hours post delivery, even for going to the toilet. I was hoping for an in and out delivery, but not I'm worried the SPD will automatically mean a stay in the hospital.
Also no where seems to have any info on whether the symptoms will improve and how soon.
I know everyone has different degrees of SPD so no one may know how long it takes to recover from my severe kind.
When I had DD 4 years ago I didn't have SPD so this time it really is all new to me.
If you been through childbirth with SPD how did it effect things? Did it mean a longer hospital stay? How long before you noticed an improvement?
TIA!!
