Last night as a mum of 1



Sorry I've not posted this week.
It's not that I've been busy, it's actually been a good week.
Well that was till yesterday,

I had my pre-op appointment, which started of ok. Of course you expect delays with all the people you have to see, So that didn't bother me.
I was nearing the end of the appointment when the midwife asked me about fetal movement. It was then that I noticed that I hadn't felt him move all day.
Ended up having to go on the ctg where he still didn't move. Got sent to triage with something to eat and drink. left for almost 2 hours to see if he would move.
He moved once.
They gave me a choice of either staying or going home but either way I had to have another ctg in the morning.
Because of the section tomorrow I chose to go home. Well to my in-laws as they live closer.

I went back today. with only having felt him move 3 times over the course of the night. was on there half an hour with 1 movement. So got sent for a scan and then had to be hooked up to the ctg again.
Was on there an hour the second time. likely he started moving round then.
They have estimated his weight to be 6lb 9oz.

It will be a few days at least before I will be able to post again.
I have to be at the hospital for 7am tomorrow. At the moment I am second on the list for the section, but that was before all this happened. whether that will change or not tomorrow I don't know.
