One in the breach? Isn't that how to kill your mother before you get to meet her?

Cloud · 01-12-2008, 08:21 PM

just about. both my kids were born that way, too.

Wow, really? Nowadays breech presentation is an automatic C-section.

I had a work friend that had twins, with baby b in footling breech, and she delivered vaginally with a midwife. She was featured on a Baby's Story on tlc.

You have to give your permission for a c-section....

fortunately, I had a really good doctor (same for both) who must have believed in vaginal deliveries. I remember when Daughter No. 2 was born, a number of nurses and other people came to observe the procedure where she was delivered by the doctor, and they were all pretty impressed.

Me too.

I'm a DES daughter---my mother took DES, a drug to prevent miscarriage, in the 50s, which later turned out to cause cancer in the female children. Fortunately, I missed the cancer, but it apparently altered the shape of my uterus, so that any children I would have would be positioned wrong. First child was premature; second child almost was. I got lucky, as I said.

Recent studies indicate that things such as malnutrition have long term adverse affects even on the health and growth of grandchildren. Is there any evidence of same happening with DES and other such drugs?

no sign of anything into the third generation, fortunately. Seeing as how I've got 5 little girls in the fourth generation now, too.

The real question is: do you have a wide stance?

Cloud · 01-19-2008, 10:27 PM

I have wide shoulders. Does that count?
