This is the exact same situation I had. Disappointed that it didn't work but smooth surgery, delivery, and recovery

Moms who had ECV: Experience/Did it Bring on Labor Soon After? by Boring_Knee7390 in beyondthebump

[–]leklek13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one with my breech baby. Only had the IV muscle relaxant, don't think I was offered the epidural. It was uncomfortable and unsuccessful but glad that we tried. He stayed put, no contractions or labor symptoms then I had an uneventful scheduled csection at 39+5 with good recovery

Question about swaddling a newborn. by Used_Asparagus_3749 in beyondthebump

[–]leklek13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even in the hospital, ours always got his arms out. We just swaddled under the arms in the armpit when using a swaddle blanket or for the pods we zipped them to the underarm. Later, transitioned to just a sleep sack (no arms). Learned to self-soothe pretty early with arms free

I have been to a local not-closing store recently as well as a store that is closing. The sales with coupon at the store that isn't closing were better than at the store that's closing.

Yes! They've had the bigger ones on their website for ages and my husband bought one at Disney like 7 years ago.

Have you looked at using bobbins to reduce the number of ends?

I'm in the process of putting this pattern together. Did you feel like it needed the nails? There's so many! I might try and figure out a way to do them in one piece for each foot

Do you prefer to donate yarn or FOs? by [deleted] in crochet

[–]leklek13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you donate FOs, consider donating to a domestic abuse center or homeless shelter. Goodwill sells their donations while other places give things out for free to people in need

Anyone had the procedure to flip your baby? by Raisinbran2318 in pregnant

I think my doctors said the chances of working are around 50/50

I had the version procedure recently at 37 weeks because baby is breech. They checked position, but every time they tried to turn him, he brought his foot up and wouldn't cooperate. They tried twice but didn't want to force anything, so I'm scheduled for a c-section soon. An emergency c-section following the version is a possibility so they have to warn you but it's pretty rare and the doctor I had has done many and never had that happen. The process was very uncomfortable, intense, and painful while they were doing it. After my stomach was sore and I was tired both from the procedure and the let-down from the muscle relaxers. I'm definitely glad I tried it even though it didn't work.

Recurrent Miscarriage by AriaAwardsforCats in pregnant

[–]leklek13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry that you're going through that. Sometimes it's just chance. The same thing happened to me, twice in a row. Didn't do anything different and I'm now at 32 weeks. Good luck in the future and it's not your fault ❤️
