i THINK I JUST HAD A SHOWW... ADVICE PLEASE
:?Hi all im 36+5 and i think i have just had a show. Im booked in for a section on Monday but i am hoping and praying that I go natural before as its my thhird and final pregnancy and have never had a natural. Im not sure what I should do. Should i ring midwife and tell her or just leave things for now and see if anything further happens. I sooooooo want a natural birth. The reasons for my previous sections where failed induction and concern over small babys but noth where fine.I have been monitored closely and there are no concerns over the size of this baby so dont know why i am being forced to have a section anyway. So confused and starting to painc now because dont want to ring midwife and be told to go straight in and then be taled into having a section early!!!
Some advice please ladies. Does a show mean birth is imminent?????

You should not be made to have a section if there is no reason. I know there can be concerns over scan tissue, but I'm sure they would have said if that was the case, how long ago was your last section? if they are too close it can be a greater risk.
Good luck, hope you get the birth you want.

they said if they were too close it could be more of a risk, but I'm sure that was under 18months.
wait and see, if you do go into labour hold out as long as you can BUT OVER ALL YOURS AND THE BABY'S HEALTH ARE THE IMPORTANT THING. when it does start, just do what your body is telling you BUT DON'T PUT YOURSELF AT RISK.
good luck!!
