Confused! 😐
I went to the doctors because I had sickness and diarrhoea, I was feeling extremely dizzy and my vision kept going blurry, my doctor was concerned because of this and my pulse was at 114, then 122 and then 130 😳 she sent me to the hospital to be put on a drip because I was very dehydrated, they struggled to find a vein to put the drip into but managed in the end. I started to feel better and was then told I needed a scan to make sure baby was okay and because they thought she was transverse and couldn’t feel any of her head out of my pelvis, she was perfectly fine. A large piece of her head was in my pelvis but on my notes in palpable it says 4/5! That means that only 1/5th of her head is in my pelvis right? (If I’m wrong pls tell me because I don’t have a bloody clue 😩) If only a tiny bit of her head is in my pelvis why did the scan show more and why couldn’t she physically feel it when she felt my stomach? 🤦🏼♀️ I’m so confused by what she’s said and what my notes say. Is she 4/5 engaged or what? 😒
UPDATE: I had my 38 week appointment today and it turns out she’s not even ready to come yet! 😐 she’s staying firmly in place at the minute and it looks like I’m going to go over due. The doctor said she should be established head down but she isn’t showing signs of moving down any time soon. I’ve heard a lot about the stress being induced puts on babies and I really don’t want that for her 😔 does anyone have any suggestions on how I can encourage her to move down? 🤨
