When I had my 1st I was told to do the same. But didn't end up doing it and had my baby tru VD.
Your doctor wants to know if your pelvis Is wide enough for your baby's head to pass tru, but from what I read online then, your body adjusts during labour even if the x-ray says otherwise and pregnant women should be allowed a trial of labour regardless of pelvimetry result.
Maybe you should find out from your doctor why he wants you to do it, or seek 2nd opinion to be sure.

apt!!! thumbs up mama

Anonymous29:


pelvimetry is usually recommended for ftms to know if they can have VD. But according to what I read online, pelvimetry isn't an accurate way to measure the pelvic bone, because the the pelvic bone will stretch when contractions starts. Are you a ftm? there are mamas here that have also done it before. I think you should read more about it online and decide which you want. How many weeks are you mama?

thanks for ur time,yes am a ftm and 35wks.

I had it in my last pregnancy. Its no cause for alarm, you will be given a cloth to cover your body ( to prevent rays from entering your body i guess) and you will be given something like a ruler to put in between your thighs. This is where the ray will read your pelvic length if its adequate for VD or not. Doesn't even take up to 5 minutes to get it done. I did it about 10k in 2017.

mama.... Just tnk ur stars.... U were lucky ni.... Did Xray scan jan n gt preggy feb, my doc had 2 call me 2 ask me wen i did d xray scan 4 protectn reasons...

Weldone! Over to the owner of the question. The answer you seek is here.

thank you ma....the pain as subsided though but if she experience such again we would have to relocate to the hospital lol...the tension was too much

Nothing to worry about if the contractions have stopped. She should take it easy, reduce strenuous activities and beg baby to wait for 2 more weeks. However, Jazzy birthed at 35 weeks and her baby is perfectly ok. Just pray that God's will be done and baby should come out healthy whenever he/she is ready

Whether it has subsided or not, pls go to the hospital!!! Mine subsided too and I relaxed!!! 24hrs later it was back and worse and they didnt have a choice but to deliver cos by the time I got to the hospital, I was 5cm gone!!! I'm lucky my baby didn't have to stay in the NICU.

Abeg see a doctor o make she no go born for house. At least they can give her meds to stop the cramps so baby can stay in there longer.

we were only given flagine to stop the toilets visits

okay....i will do that thanks alot

ojeshola:

Only flagyl? Which kind hospital be that?

angeltolly:


I only told you i did it with my last pregnancy as prescribed by a consultant Ob/Gyn since she's asking for clarification. Its from my own experience i replied. Not forcing her to go and do it, it her choice and that's why i added the price just so she can weigh her options herself.

So you think if it is totally dangerous to your baby, doctor will still allow people go through it? Am sure that reduced ray baby will be "exposed to" isn't beyond the threshold.

I have someone who was asked to do it, it should her pelvis was inadequate and at the end of the day labour came before the elective cs date and gave birth thru V.D so what?

This x-ray u may not feel the impact on ur child now but later they will start manifesting .


Even as an adult they advised that u don't do x-ray more than one time in ur life time.

ojeshola:

okay....i will do that thanks alot

is the 35weeks according to scan or lmp?

angeltolly:


Pain in your tummy after you have vomited may be as a result of the the force and pressure exerted on the tummy in the process of vomiting. But if its severe pain like you said, you may want to speak with your doctor again about.

[b][b]Vomiting for the first time today at 7 weeks may just be the induction/welcoming ceremony to the morning sickness club [/b] sorry about that

Thank you. It has reduced now. MS no be easy something

kokaiye:
pain above stomache?! I pray 4 it not 2 b ulcer n just b ordinary heartburn.... Did u tk ur drugs without food? If yes, pls stop doing dt.... U introducing ulcer to ursef.

No, i didn't take my drugs without food. Was thinking it might be heartburn, but doesn't that happen around the chest area?

Madam what's up na with this statement?

Rest this matter abeg. Simple matter pelvic not uterus.

She has been advised duely so abeg unto the next matter. Thank you

Lmao, shebi you are a stubborn fowl wey no dey hear word

Seriously though ojeshola Jazzy is right. Especially if the cramps she felt are regular (coming at similar intervals and duration). Just get the doctor to confirm if she is contracting, if yes she will be given meds to stop them and limit strenuous activity for the next 2-3 weeks

Meanwhile it's like quarrel has been hungrying you people on this thread lately...muhehehehehehehe
