RE: [ozmidwifery] Any help would be great.

how wonderful. This is a very special little person, with a loving grandfather to watching over. I am a believer in these things having lived with a ghost for three  years.  We think we have a ghost in a 'new to us' house.  My 5 year old announced she'd seen a ghost the other day.   anyway, I am so dammed happy the abortion didn't work.   I believe she will carry this baby and the little person will be well.  She may experience some flare-up of the colitis.  I'm not sure about the birth. I'd say take it as it comes.  Talk to the midwives at a birth centre, a a homebirth midwife. Don't rely on doctors to give you a balanced view.  I am sure there are dozens of people on this list with good advice.  Maureen.   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Rhonda Sent: Friday, October 25, 2002 5:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ozmidwifery] Any help would be great.   Well, this is a strange one - I mentioned a little while ago about my friend who seemed to think she had to have an abortion due to the steroids and drugs she was on for colitis.  So doing what her doctor recommended she went and had the abortion.     And for those of you who believe in miracles - the day before she had it I had a strange "visit" from who we worked out to be her grandfather - I got some very strong feelings that he did not want her to have the abortion and was very comforting telling her not to worry.  Other things that I felt lead us to believe who it was - I got heavy in the chest and had strong chest pains/pressure, she tells me he died of lung cancer.  Unfortunately, by the time i had relayed what had happened - she had already gone through with it.  (NB:  her grandfather had died when she was 12 yrs old.)   Well the abortion didn't work.  Something or someone protected this baby. Any guess as to who! Now she is back to where she started though and would still like any advice or help from anyone who knows anything at all about Colitis (inflamation of the bowel) treatement of this condition and pregnancy and also of her having a natural delivery as she had a c/s for her last and I know would like to have a VBAC.  But is unsure of everything and not terribly confident in her body as she is run down, on steroids and feeling in general particularly miserable.   Thanks Rhonda ____________________________________________________   IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here
