I just went threw all the emails and the latest date we have is aug 26th on guesses, so i guess we will just see who is closest on everything else. If someone hasnt guessed yet, then get in your guesses, well everything but the date, cause that would be cheating lol

I was kinda expecting a call last night. Mark and I went for a walk, and I even mentioned it to him. Matt was home, so I know I didn't miss a call.

Hope all is well with them. I agree they've probably been swept up in the moment, and we'll hear something soon. :)

Just got back from the doctor. The baby's heart rate has dropped, just a little, but enough that they mentioned it. Its still within normal range. I have a non-stress test set up for next wednesday and from there they'll determine how much longer they want to let me go. My doctors have been really supportive with the whole vbac thing and I'm confident that they'll hold out as long as they feel safe doing so. I, however, am not feeling very confident that things will go well. I'm having another horrible day and I'm starting to wonder if it wouldn't just be better to have a c section again. This week has been the week from hell.

Angie,

I'm sorry that you're having a bad week :(

It's normal to have doubts and fears at this stage. Try and take things one day at a time--hopefully, things will ease up for you.

For now, we're gonna think positively :D

Hang in there Angie. Why are they waiting a week for the stress test?

Guhlia Rising Star

The non stress test is scheduled for next week because they don't want me to go further than a week past my due date. I told them that I want to wait as long as deemed healthy for my baby. The doctor agreed, he's very understanding and easy to work with. He wants me to have the non-stress test to see if we can go past that week.

Just peeking in to see if there is any news this morning. Hopefully we will hear soon. I expect that she is a wee bit busy and overwhelmed.

Angie, you might go before we hear from Stef! :P

:) I doubt it. That would be nice though. :)

I hope things are well with Stef. I can't wait to hear all about little Lukas.

I was thinking the same thing, Amanda... I'm dying to hear how things are going. The suspense is killing me. :)

I haven't been on much lately and am always hoping there is a post her from her or someone else with news. :)

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      @Scott Adams Strange question but can you actually feel your hernia? I have so many abdominal lumps and bumps of longstanding (my GP said it's fat!) that I sometimes wonder if an inguinal hernia could be missed. I am quite sure some of my pain is from my umbilical hernia but that first came about courtesy of my second pregnancy.

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      I had double hernia laparoscopic surgery two months go to repair both an Inguinal hernia (a recent home project injury) and an umbilical hernia (which I had for many years, but fixing it at the same time made sense), and am now more or less fully recovered. Recently on the forum someone mentioned the idea of hernia induced IBS, which I now believe was a real...

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      For the Inguinal hernia I could definitely feel it, and it came with an obvious bulge that appeared soon after doing a project where I was drilling holes on concrete using a very old school regular hand drill with mason bit, instead of a hammer drill with mason bit--this left me squatting over the drill putting my weight on it for several hours (the hammer drill would not have required this level of stress, nor the time it took). Bad idea--learn from my mistake in being "lazy" and not renting (or buying) the proper tool for the job. My umbilical hernia was around for many years, and I didn't feel that one at all, so never worried about it. My doctor basically recommended doing both in one surgery, which seemed like wise move.  As far as the possible IBS connection to either, it was definitely apparent after getting the Inguinal hernia, which is why I asked my doctor about that, but after getting both fixed I realize that the umbilical hernia likely also had mild IBS effects over the years.

Recently on the forum someone mentioned the idea of hernia induced IBS, which I now believe was a real for me, but was a fairly minor issue overall, which got worse after getting the more recent Inguinal hernia. My doctor never mentioned this as a possibility, even though I directly asked him about it during my office visit: Me "can my hernias cause any digestive issues?" My doctor: "No, I doubt that." I still need to learn more about hernia induced IBS, but I realize now that I might have been affected by this to some degree in for a while.
