i am 40 years old expecting my fifth baby all four babies delivered normally ihave 23 wksof pregnancy my baby position is not ideal it is vertical ?

Question

Hi I have had 2 babies in the space of a year and in the pregnancy my platlets kept going down & now there still going up and down what could cause it?

Answer 1

Confusing question: Babies are usually carried in a vertical position. Do you mean bottom first ? If so there is a chance that surgical delivery would be safer for a big baby. Yet you do have quite a while for baby to turn head down.

Answer 2

It varies: It can take weeks to months, but you may be able to get pregnant again before your next period comes, so be careful or have fun depending....

Answer 3

Everything as usual: Make sure you are doing more for your oral hygiene, and stay up on your dental work so that you do not have avoidable dental concerns along the way. A good cleaning is important to get you started. Congrats with the new baby.

Answer 4

Many things: Most dental issues related to pregnancy deal with gum problems. However, the dentist should evaluate your dental needs as normally. He will look for cavities, TMJ issues, oral cancer screen, gum tissues...Etc. Make sure the dentist uses a lead apron with a thyroid collar if x-rays are necessary. The important issue is that some dental diseases may affect the health of the fetus.

Answer 5

Leave them alone: The best thing to do is to leave them alone. Try to get rid of the offending agent, heat, over bundling; consider an office visit if baby's skin does not improve. It may be eczema or another common childhood rash.

Answer 6

Not Likely: Tubal ligations are not 100% effective. If the tubal ligation was done at delivery it may be a little less effective. Never say never in medicine. I have a patient who became pregnant many years after her tubal ligation. It is always a possibility although not as likely.Tubal ligations are generally 99% effective.

Answer 7

Tubal reconnection?: There are ways to re-connect the fallopian tubes if they have not been injured so severely. Obtain a operative report from the previous surgery and take to a gyn md who performs the tubal reanastomosis procedure and they can give you an opinion as to whether it is feasible or not.

Answer 8

Probably!: Most babies pause breathing for 15 to 20 seconds in the first few months of life. If the breathing resumes spontaneously and there is no change in color it s usually normal. Make sure you take him to his doctor for a ceck up.

Answer 9

Mgt: Brief apneas and periodic breathing can occur at night. I would suggest taking a video to your PCP and discussing an apnea test and other work up. Many infants though have mild brief apneas which require no treatment. Watch for any signs of distress, color changes of the lips eg.

Answer 10

Apnea Monitor?: Not enough information.What do you mean by forget to breathe at night. We need to know how old is baby.Term Birth or Premie.How much does the baby weigh.Any other children in family who had similar problem. I suggest you take the baby to Pediatrician with your concen and if you can take a video,that will help. If the Apnea is significant and there are other risk factors.Apnea Monitor may be neede
