Pregnant - Nursing - Please pray for baby and I...

I have not been on for a while because I got some scary news on Tuesday (which I thought was my last doctors appointment). I went in for my usualI appointment, everything was going fine until the doctor wentto measure my stomach. It was then that he noted that I not only had swelling, but pitting edema around my old c-section scar (a large collection of fluid about a inch and 1/2 deep covering the whole scare). This means that is will be more difficult and take longer to get to baby, the fluid could leak out and cause and infection and other complications for me. So now they may have to find a place to make a new incision..we don't know.. Because of this I am going to deliver at a hospital 2 hours away as they are a University hospital and are better prepared if God forbid something went wrong.

I go down tomorrow to meet the OR doctor and they will decided if they want to do my c-section Friday or Monday. I also have way too much amniotic fluid (now 29) so she is pushing my lungs up..Im running out of room. Please pray for me as I am very scared all this happened in a matter 3 days. What I thought was going to be a normal c-section is now turning into a nightmare.

My Name is Tiffany..a simple "Please God watch over Tiffany and Baby" after you read this would mean the world to me. I will keep you all posted.

Take care, Tiffany and baby. I will be sending positive thoughts your way.

You will be in my thoughts. :hug:

:hug::hug::hug::hug: I'll be thinking of you and hoping all goes well!

Praying for you Tiffany. I'm sure the university hospital has brilliant and caring doctors who will take excellent care of you. Be not afraid.

Prayers going up for you and your baby, Tiffany ... :hug:

My prayer for you. Our Father in heaven, I ask that you will continue to bless our friend Tiffany and her precious baby girl. Bless her with the faith, knowledge and comfort that she is in your hands. And I pray Father, that you bless the minds and hands of her Doctors that she may also find comfort in this.:hug:

Praying for you and your baby.

Tiffany, praying that all will go well for you and the baby. Praying , also for guidance and wisdom for the doctors and all medical staff that will be caring for you. Please let us know what happens. And do not forget that you are in the care of a loving God.

Praying for you and your baby and the situation. Can't say it any better than Bargoo-you're in God's hands and He'll help guide the doctors.:hug:

Praying for you and your little one

I hope everything goes well for you .

I'm praying for you Tiffany. I pray that you can be relaxed and enjoy the birth of your baby. I pray that your baby will be healthy and happy. And I pray for the doctors that they will be guided by our Father in Heaven during the birth and after. I will continue to pray and please keep us updated when you can!

you are in my prayerz.. i hope every thing goes well.. heres to only good newz...

First again let me thank all of you for your prayers..THEY ARE WORKING!! Here is the update. We arrived at the University hospital on Friday at 12:30 they ran test after test, we were there until 6 pm. Baby is fine, she is doing well.
However due I will have to have a different kind of C-section due to the fact that my old c-section scar is just to difficult to get to (because of the swelling and my "belly apron"). My C-section cut will be a lateral cut ABOVE my belly button. Although this has been done, it is rare but its what is best for baby. They really put my mind at ease as they are confident everything should go well. I go in tomorrow (less then 24 hours) for surgery..again I will carry all your prayers with me!! Thank you again...I will keep you posted and please continue to pray for us ~Tiffany

That's great news TIFFANY -- prayers continue for you and your baby over the next while ... :hug:

Most definitely. Prayer for you and baby (and the rest of the family).

Praying for you hon, and your sweet baby. :hug:

Tiff--hope you're holding your beautiful, healthy little girl in your arms right now!!

Thinking of you today mama!!

Tiffany,

I had a lovely pregnancy after a decade of infertility and was prepared along with my midwife, doula and birthing tub for a healthy at home birth. Last minute diagnosis of oligohydramnios (too little or no amniotic fluid) lead to an emergency c-section.

All around me everyone was terrified but I knew my little one was strong and that it would all be okay. We had a scary beginning but she's 4 now. All is well. I am praying for you and your blessing.

Stay strong,
Take it one breath at a time,
and fire anyone in Labor and Delivery that makes you uncomfortable, I wish I had. LOL

Tiff - I hope all went well and both you and baby are recovering nicely.

I said a prayer! Hope all is well.

praying for you and your little one.
