went check up today. baby is at a good weight, head down, but not engaged and nose/face facing out, so doc is expecting a long, hard and overdue labour so set an elective c-sect date. next monday gonna see my little boy, dunno what to feel also.

I also wanna try, i think at MT A mum can come on in, except my mum won't want to. I'm just quite scared of doctors and nurses being very authoritative and start to intimidate me then even if i'm so much in pain that i swear i'm about to pass out also dont't dare to tell them... hehe. YEah the faster healing is the only factor for me to wanna wait for natural, coz i need to go back to work in a month. *stress*
how come you need to go back work in a month?:err:

Me too, I squeeze my breasts also nothing come out. Worried about whether the colostrum will come out anot.

If I remember, i sometimes massage my breasts when I shower, but don't know got effect anot.

Don't think/worry too much. Who knows by next monday your baby will be engaged? Just make sure you get enough rest during that 1 mth of confinement period. My mom also only had 1 month of maternity leave when she gave birth to me. And don't strain yourself when you get back to work. Health is more important.

i booked for c-sect for monday liao. Saturday will take a scan again then monday see bb liao. haiz. he's very naughty la, prefers to sunny-side-up, so doc says high chance of forcep assistance, might as well cut.

doc dinn say how, but i read on some sites that the mummy's position will affect bb. like sitting in a couch too much will gravitate bb to face up. but he suggests that dun wait till 39/40 weeks to check if he'll turn, usually c-sect doc like to do it earlier like wk 38.

GA will be administered thru IV at the arm, but they will put a mask over to knock me out with the IV drip. Cannot eat/drink 10 hrs before, to avoid nausea or puking when i wake up.

Went for my regular check ups on the 30/3. Doctor says AFI level too low, 3.4 only. Thus need to induce me. I wasn't even dilated yet!! i was induced 4 times until finally she popped out on the 2nd April!~
