have to have a c section :(

in no uncertain terms I am gutted.... was hoping to go naturally but my pelvis has slipped and is stopping bump from being able to engage.

he's perfectly ok sitting were he is lol.

so my OB said to save him getting distressed and also to release the pain I am in which is becoming increasingly unbearable I am scheduled for a c section on the 26th of July.

ironically when I worked out my dates I worked it out to be the 25th as my due date  XD

bump is chilled out and doing his thing his heartbeat is strong and he's having enough oxygen so I'm relaxing as much as I can before next week :)

oh I know this little baby is as special to me as my 19 yr old twins I was just praying I could do this on my own after the emergency c section with the twins and the complications I suffered after it. but the only way he would come out the let's say normal way would be to possibly dislocate or break a few of my bones so he could escape.  which would put way to much stress on the little man.  he will arrive this way safe that's all that matters to me :)

on the up side lol me and bump will get pampered even more now when we come home XD

You do not get a good grade if you deliver vaginally and a bad grade if you deliver by C-section.  You get a baby!!  Congratulations, you're going to be a mama!  I'd trade places with you and be delighted to have the C.  Good luck, you won't need it, you'll be delighted with your love bundle however he makes it into the world.
