[ozmidwifery] I need your help again.

[Philippa Scott]

Hi all, Sorry about the cross posting but I dont have a lot of time to gather info. I need it in less than 24 hrs actually. My client has been told that her placenta is aging & that they will induce her at 37wks, 38 at the most. They have told her that the baby is fine & growing well and that this may simply be how her body works but they are not taking chances with the babies life. It was only picked up on because she was diagnosed as a very mild gest. diabetic. Her last two babies she didn't have any antenatal care at all so she doesn't know what is normal for her except that she is more worried about things this time. But who can blame her. Oh she is also Group Strep B or was early in pg. Can anyone point me in the right direction for info as I dont have a lot of time to look it up & me pg brain is only working to half speed. I cant believe I only have 9 weeks to go. Cheers Philippa Scott Birth Buddies
