Well, the homebirth was off as it turned out last week (36 weeks) that the baby was breech .. I cried for a few days and then we saw the Consultant who offerd me an ECV (external emanual turning!)... which is scary, risky and hurts like hell apparently. So I went for it ! Whats 3 minutes of pain compared to a cesearean !???
And it worked !! They managed to turn the baby on Monday. I am now paranoid and watchful in case it turns back, but at least the homebirth is back on, phew.
And I am less scared now... I refused the muscle relaxant injection that supposed to make it hurt less and I had a little go on the gas and air, but I didnt like it.. so I coped with the agony with just my golden breath yoga breathing and it worked ! So that has made me more confident. The Con said I was very determined and had a very stong mind and very motivated... I said to H after, I know that now, because I never gave up on you and us for a second when we were apart.. I had an absolute conviction that we would reunite even when others thought I was crazy.

WOW! You are quite a trooper Ali! I wanted drugs from the start....of course they didn't work properly but that's neither here nor there.
So you are in week 37? GOSH! That has gone by so fast. I hope you are staying comfortable and getting as much rest as you can right now. These last few weeks will FLY by!
Hugs and best wishes to you, H, and your sweet baby!

The baby was born after 80 hours labour!! Mom and baby girl are both fine, the baby princess is perfect and her parents are ecstatic from what I could tell.
Congrats Al, Love M
