I've spoken to a midwife and she says, the next hospital 1/2 an hour away does c -sections and it depends on the doctor to what weight limits they have, only a couple of months ago a lady who was 130kg's delevered by c -section had her baby with little complications and recovered well. So that could well be an option for me if I go over the 120kg weight limit my Dr has put on me, I'm hoping with good food and excercise I'll stay under, but I have got a while to go. She said if it is ok with the doctor that I have now then I can transfer back to my home town hospital after 24 hours.
The next thing I can do is go to the hospital an hour from me, it is a base hospital and is more well equipt to deal with any type of emergency and can deal with any size. The same thing stands with them, I could transfer back as long as all is well and the hospital here is happy with that.
I feel a bit better about things, but I still feel guilty and sad about my weight.
I haven't told any of this to my Hubby yet, I don't want to freek him out, he's already worried about a caeser let alone me complicating things. Guess I'll have to tell him at some point though.
I haven't decided what I want to do just yet, I think I would feel less worried in the bigger hospital, but I guess the next antinatal (at 25 weeks) will help make up my mind. I just hope I keep keep my weight what it is....
