So bummed
I updated my post yesterday but no one responeded 
So anyway, I went for my first internal last night. I had the strep B test. The exam was not bad at all. Very fast actually. But here's my problem...the doctor told me I will most likely need a C-Section because of the shape of my pelvic bone. I am so devestated by this. He wants me to have the other dr in the practice examine me next week and see if he feels the same way. If he does I will most likely be scheduling a section. I am beyond disappointed. Any thoughts? input? experience? advice? Thanks

Re: So bummed
No experience with that. I would have another doctor's opinion.

Re: So bummed
i dont have any advice bc i dont know the situation really but i do want to offer hugs and prayers bc i know how it feels to want things to go one way and then u get blindsided with changes to "the plan"....my girl might be big and i worry about a csection or even just a more difficult painful delivery....im trying my best to just not get upset until i HAVE to

Re: So bummed
Im sorry...no advice. I wouldnt get upset until the second opinion...this doctor must not have had much confidence in what he found. On the other hand...there are some up sides to C sections...I may have to have one and its the pros that make it seem not so bad.

Re: So bummed
i am so sorry sweetie... the only thing is that i feel like it's good that your doctor found this out now, and you can get a scheduled c-section (if that's what you really need) instead of going thru labor and then finding out that  can't be delivered naturally... it will save you SO much stress on your body.
i am glad you are getting a second opinion, try not to worry till then

Re: So bummed
No experience. But you should get a second opinion. I hate it when Dr.'s are so quick to give a woman a C-section.

Re: So bummed
I don't really have an experience to share but I wanted to send you some . I know it's not the news you wanted to hear and like most of us having a C-section is probably not on the top of your list of things to do BUT remember, whether you go naturally or have a C as long as the baby is healthy that's all the matters. At the end of the day when you're holding your little peanut in your arms it won't even matter how she got there just that she's finally with you!! Feel better and keep us posted.

Re: So bummed
first of all, i am sorry
I understand how you feel about the birthing experience
Just know that in the end, all that matters is getting the baby out safely and you will have the motherhood experience
perhaps your mom can be in the OR with you and DH

Re: So bummed
I would definitely get a few opinions. IMO doctor's are too quick to rush into C sections. Sorry I have no personal experience though.

Dr. S and the weird thing is he goes "See Dr H next week and don't tell him what I think just see what he says." Huh?  Deedlebug had the SAME exact thing happen and she said something to Dr H and scheduled a section. Basically it's supposed to be shaped like a diamond and mine is more like a triangle so there is a strighter part that could be hard to get the baby through.
I don't want to pose any risk to her but I'm bummed.
