The itching explained - Obstetric Cholestasis!

[Now we're 3]

Well all official now - motherhood here we come - bit earlier than planned but all good.

Booked in for tomorrow so in a little over 24 hours I'll be a mum. After discussion between us and the OB and full examination seeing way baby is positioned, the way my cervix is/isn't have decided to go down the c/section route rather than attempting the induction. Mightn't be everyones choice but believe it to be best for us.

Thanks for all your input and look forward to speaking to you from the other side!

Any bets on how much sleep i end up getting tonight ?????

NOt much !! Both mine were ceasers and I got about 2 hrs the night before DD was born, and not much more before DS was born (with him I was having contractions though).

Good luck for your birth.. And as long as you are comfortable, then it is the right decision..

Good luck with tomorrow. You'll be holding your bubba in your arms in no time.
Super exciting!!! I hope you get some rest tonight.

Aw wow! Good luck! And congrats in advance

Can anyone tell me it this 'itchy' feeling is in the cervix? Is that what Meadsie is explaining? As I have that and reading this thread is bringing to my attention it may be serious?

Obstetric cholestasis is usually signified by itching on the hands and feet, sometimes all over the body - so I don't think your itchy cervix is anything to worry about - good luck trying to scratch it though!! LOL

Dedicated Mummy, you sound like you could have thrush or other irritation in your vagina - you should still see a Dr about it though.
