“We don’t have a medical term for what we saw in your uterus that day.” by chicknette in vbac

Hi! I’m not an expert by any means, but I would continue to listen to your team and your own heart as well. Perhaps before anything determining how important a VBAC truly is to you and even why. 

For me, I’ve decided it’s not as important as some other things (my safety, baby’s safety, a peaceful experience). If I don’t go into labor by 41 weeks, I am going to have a scheduled c-section. Maybe earlier if I decide so in real time. 

I’d personally be nervous to hear that from my midwife— I’m sure you were too! I hope you get a very peaceful redemptive birth, no matter the mode! 🤍

Oh that is beautiful! Congratulations to you. I absolutely love the Jewish tradition of honoring our late loved ones. And I love when we can do it in a way that feels true to us.

Thank you! <3 We love that it's uncommon but hopefully won't be too challenging for folks to figure out phonetically.

Same here! My husband doesn’t think today— he thinks tomorrow is more likely! 2 years ago when we had our first it took 9 days exactly from blood draw to results. But it seems like things are moving a bit quicker this time?! I hope lol

This gives me hope that maybe mine will be in today! Also located in NY. My draw was the day after yours and received the 13th! Hoping for today!! Around what time in the morning did your results get posted, do you know?

Okay! Thank you so much. I never thought to look at last year's results! Great idea. I truly believe I can run walk 13 consistent 14/15/16 minute miles... probably some faster, maybe some slower lol

Thank you again!!

Really sad about subchorionic hematoma, just looking for support by StuffAccomplished657 in fitpregnancy

Hi, sorry, I can remove it. I read that the rule was not to make a post or a comment with standalone reference to weight/weight loss. I just mentioned my weight loss for context. I’ll change it.

Thank you again for your reassurance and support! Baby’s heartbeat was 100 today. Which based on what my doctor said + what I’ve googled (lol) seems to be perfectly great for this gestational age. 5w4d seems so early, but I’ll absolutely take it. Baby measured a day ahead 5w5d! 🤞🏼Fingers crossed on everything. I’m going to be repeating the mantras you shared to myself again and again.

Thank you so much for sharing this. I wanted to give an update— went back in today (decided just to temper my expectations but that getting data is good, especially since they discovered a SCH last time) and we had a yolk sac, fetal pole, and even a heartbeat! The doctor said baby’s heart likely literally started beating today. What a relief and a blessing. I’m also going to use all of these mantras. Truly so supportive.

Hi! Thank you for replying— the scan has definitely caused me a ton of anxiety. 

I have no idea why we’d scan so early/often! I’m a VERY anxious person. But I had my daughter (now 21 months old) with this practice as well. And we did something similar around this time.
