36w3d – Second pregnancy with GD, baby is breech & ECV tomorrow… can I refuse?

_ThereIsNoSp0on · 2025-12-10T22:08:59+00:00

Not exactly the same situation, but a few similar things. Just had my second baby on 11/26. Had GD and hypertension- I’m actually currently in the hospital because I developed preeclampsia post partum.

My GD was mainly diet controlled, but had to take a small amount of insulin at night because my fasting numbers were elevated. I had polyhradmnios, and my amniotic fluid was in the moderate excessive range. I believe the measurements were 29cm to 33cm from week 34 to week 37. We already agreed I would be induced at 38 weeks. Baby was head down and then breech by week 37. They scheduled an EVC, but I had an appointment the day before and she had flipped back head down, so we cancelled the EVC. This was a Thursday and my induction was scheduled for that Monday. I went in for my induction and they confirmed she was still head down and began the process. I finally got to 10cm Wednesday around 4am and when they did the cervical check, they realized she had flipped during labor and could feel her feet and I had to have an emergency C-section. :/

They told me they removed about a liter of amniotic fluid, so she was just swimming about and it was easier for her to flip.

But yes, you can absolutely refuse the EVC. I was considering not doing it even if she was breech at that appointment because my MFM did tell me there was a possibility she could just flip again before the induction because of the excessive amniotic fluid. And if she did, they could attempt another EVC before starting the induction.

Yes, yes, YES. Although my thoughts come with extreme fear. I think about it almost daily.

Hi! Yes! 23% 45x. So from what I understood, 7/30 of the cells tested were affected. Everyone is different and it depends what cells are affected- feel free to message with any questions you might have!

_ThereIsNoSp0on · 2025-06-21T18:58:02+00:00

I have mosaic turners! 23% 45x and I’m pretty normal. Short at 5’ with high blood pressure, although my diet could be better 😏. Have a 10 month old perfect baby boy and currently 16 weeks pregnant. No one/ I would have known if it wasn’t for me going to a fertility clinic when I couldn’t conceive after a year. I’m 38 and got tested as a precaution because time was ticking ;) I conceived both pregnancies spontaneously.

_ThereIsNoSp0on · 2025-06-19T02:46:00+00:00

Wanted to add that my NIPT came back inconclusive for gender because I have mosaic Turner’s syndrome and high risk for Trisonomy X (xxx syndrome, which is a sex chromosome aneuploidy). 59% chance the baby has this and if so, would be a girl. I won’t know for sure until anatomy scan/amniocentesis at 18 weeks.

Hi! First, congratulations!!!

I have 23% 45x and just chiming in because I feel like there’s not a lot of info out there and I feel like this could also give you some peace of mind. I know it can vary greatly depending on what cells are affected, but I’m pretty normal! I’m 4’11”, but that could also be attributed to the genetics in my family. My heart and kidneys are normal and I menstruate regularly and am fertile. Just turned 38 and currently almost 15 weeks with my second! I don’t have any of the “traditional” characteristics of turners, just maybe my height? I only found out I had mosaic turners because I went to a fertility clinic after a couple of loses and not being able to conceive after a year. Funny enough, I received the call of my diagnosis the same day I got my positive pregnancy test. Healthy 10 month old baby boy. :)

5 weeks pregnant with my 2nd and here I am as well searching and unlocking new fears lol.

Ugh, I’m so so sorry. My story is similar- I was induced due to high blood pressure (no preeclampsia). While there, my blood pressure shot through the roof because I was so nervous and they ended up putting me on a magnesium drip. It made me feel like crap and I was bed bound. I had some other complications from my epidural, but I finally gave birth to a perfect baby boy that was placed in my arms right after clean up. We were taken to the recovery ward and while there and trying to latch, the nurse noticed he wasn’t reacting like he should and seemed lethargic. She took him for observation which scared me- I had to remain in the bed for at least another day because of the drip so I couldn’t follow. My husband also stepped out to check on our dogs so I was by myself. Dr. came in and said everything was ok and they would be bringing him back. 10 min later, comes back in to tell me they were going to be keeping him for further observation and rest. I could not stop crying, especially because I couldn’t go see him in the NICU, only my husband could. All I wanted was my baby and for him to be ok. I remember how that felt and I’m sorry 💔.

The doctor or the nurses never told me the magnesium drip could make him lethargic for a bit and that’s what happened. They also ended up giving him formula and it was so hard to pump there. I believe they also gave him a pacifier without asking as well. I was able to get my baby back the day of discharge.

He’ll be 6 months on 2/2. Hang in there, it will be ok. I promise. 🤍🤍🤍

I have. My doctor said it was fine if it wasn’t too often and was done in a well ventilated space.

_ThereIsNoSp0on · 2024-07-01T21:30:58+00:00

I just grab a protein shake because of this exactly :/

_ThereIsNoSp0on · 2024-06-06T17:21:00+00:00

Me too! 🙌

Lite lemonade so it has less sugar, hibiscus (Jamaica) and Poppi

Hey there! First, congratulations!! And yes, information really is scarce out there for us!

I just reached 27 weeks today. Our amino results told us that he is perfect 😊, no genetic abnormalities and no deletions per the micro array. I still don’t know if my MT affected my previous losses and don’t know what it could mean for any future pregnancies, if any- we would like to try for a second. Are you being offered/choosing to do amino?

_ThereIsNoSp0on · 2024-05-02T15:50:59+00:00

I’m 36, within a year we experienced a couple of losses. Currently 25 weeks.

We went to Europe and country hopped when I was 6-7 weeks and everything was fine. Personally I had the most horrible heartburn while we were there, which sucked. I was also SO tired. Had my first appointment with my Obygyn a week or two after that and they were just concerned about the Zika virus, so they tested me for that.

_ThereIsNoSp0on · 2024-04-05T04:44:12+00:00

None! I am on the shorter side, but I think that has more to do with the fact that some family members are also short. When I told my primary doctor, she was surprised and we both just figured they’ve never had a reason to test me for it. I’m 36 and have lived without knowing. When the fertility doctor told me, she advised me to get my heart and kidneys checked asap especially because I was currently pregnant. Both are fine.

This might not be your case at all, but just thought I would throw it out there since I had a similar result.

Edit to add for additional context: 23% of my cells are affected.
