Do most people with SPD have normal full term births??

what job do u do? do you get paid for being on the sick? xx
I had a vaginally delivery at 40+9 i begged for induction but they would not hear of it, they also were not keen to give an epidural as apparently you wont feel the pain when opening your legs so could make things worse. Luckily i didnt want one anyway... on a plus note, a week after giving birth the SPD vanished.
Keep your chin up hun, i know it's hard. x
I told my midwife i dunno if i can take 16 weeks of this and she said we will have to take things as they come. If it gets as bad as ive heard it can il demand to be induced early.
I get paid if im of sick but my contract expires next month and i really wanna be kept on, i know they cant be seen to discriminate but they will so i cant afford to be off, im gonnabe a single mum and i need this job
Im really worried about stretchmarks and tearing this just adds to the not so pleasurable pleasures of pregnancy
xxxx
Dont worry about stretch marks, if you are going to get them you will... i avoided tham until 34 weeks then they came with vegence. Also dont worry about tearing, try perineal massage, i tore, 2nd degree and had stitches but at the time i tore i didnt know.. it's only afterwards that it's painful but only for a few days or so... and believe me it's all so so so worth it once you get your lo in your arms. x
On the plus side MW says "oooh you have a have a very active little girl in there and are measuring VERY well"
Think thats just her way of saying "God woman you got FAT" lol.
