Congratulations!!!
congrats Sylvia! happy for you!
Thanks Jeff!
First off, you are a super mama. Secondly, thank you for sharing your birth story. I've heard several delivery stories but not one like yours! Happy everything went smoothly and your recovery was so quick! I had my daughter 5 days early and she was 5lbs and 12oz 😅. Audrey's facial expressions are the best too. Lastly, it's evident you & Tai are doing an amazing job by how fast she is growing. 😍
You’re so kind, thank you! You’ve got yourself a lil petite gal too!! 🫶🏻
Your experience sounds EXACTLY like how mine was for my daughter! She was measuring 20%tile at the 20 week anatomy scan and then her weight dropped to 4%tile at a 36 weeks scan. Went 0 to 100 within a week to get her out asap, she was delivered at 37 weeks.
We found out the reason for her growth restriction was due to an abnormally thick placenta.
She also breached and we couldn't attempt ECV since under 10%tile.
I agree that scheduled c-section felt soooo easy. Especially for me compared to my first delivery with my son, vacuumed and episiotomy involved. Csection was MUCH easier for the postpartum recovery. 😬
I never got to find out why my baby’s growth was restricted! That’s so interesting.
Interesting to hear from someone who’s experienced both delivery methods! I definitely feel blessed to have a positive delivery experience 😊
Glad you had a safe delivery and quick recovery! I am currently 38 weeks and I am nervous! 😂
You’ve got this! All the best!!
As someone who is going to have a baby within the next month and a bit (currently head down, no issues) was there anything you packed differently once you knew you were going to have a c-section? I have everything packed for a vaginal birth (like the tucks, peri bottle, etc.) and know you still need diapers and pads for a c-section, but I like to be prepared especially because, like you said, birth is so unpredictable so who knows if I end up needing a c-section. I just like to be super prepared for everything haha (also in Canada so I know the hospitals don't provide much)
Congrats on your pregnancy!!
I would say to have some soft high-waist underwear so it doesn’t irritate the incision point. I brought home all the mesh underwear they gave at the hospital because they were super comfy for post-surgery. Also made sure my outfit to wear at hospital or to go home were also not going to put any pressure on my incision area.
Other than that, I didn’t pack much differently! Wishing you a smooth delivery!!!
Where is the couch that you're sitting on from?
It’s from wayfair!
