Short Cervix, Hypertension and Vaginal Birth
#vrikshambirthstory
Hello Anu Akka, I am Niveditha from Abu Dhabi. I thank you wholeheartedly for making me believe myself to trust my body and make an informed decision at every stage of pregnancy. Me and my husband are your ardent insta followers and we have attended your early pregnancy and labour management classes. I strongly recommend every pregnant woman to attend your early pregnancy session because you cleared all myths and made us look into the facts which is actually helpful from then till newborn care.
We attended the session and my husband was taking notes for us. From the next day of your class, I followed your exercises and diet. I have a history of PCOD and prehypertension. As the pregnancy progressed, I had to take medication for hypertension. At 28 weeks, I was diagnosed with a Short cervix and mild GD. I did not take medication for GD, it was all controlled by my diet for which I have to thank you.
For the Short cervix, I was advised to bed rest up to 34 weeks. I trusted my body and did little movements. After 34 weeks I resumed my exercises and continued till active labour. I had gained a pregnancy weight of 8kgs and now after 1 month of delivery, I’m back to my pre-pregnancy weight
Because of hypertension, I had to be induced at 38weeks and 2 days. We were very much afraid being the first time but your words again made us trust the body and also your breathing techniques were a savior. I could save my energy throughout my active labour and bring my little angel in 2 pushes to the world.
Big thanks to you for all the knowledge sharing with us and also for letting me discover my stronger version. I have recommended your classes to all my friends and relatives.
