Low platelets
Hey mommas! So my son was measuring on track and was born 8lbs 6oz 2 weeks and a day early. My daughter is measuring measuring 2 weeks ahead and it’s making me nervous. I pushed for 4.5 hours with my son, ended up needing a vbac and an episiotomy. My platelets were low with my son but not low enough I couldn’t have an epidural. I’m super nervous about pushing my daughter out without an epidural! I know lots of women do it but I’ve only given birth with one so I’d like to do it the same way. My question is has anyone had a c-section with low platelets? I’m curious if I can’t push her out they’ll want to do a c-section, and how exactly it works since my clotting factor is low. I’m going to ask my doctor this on Friday but was just curious if anyone had gone through something similar.
