[00:00:00]What's up everyone and welcome back to our channel. So starting off at hospital. I'm at the hospital with Shannon.

[00:00:08]Um I'm trying to be speak as long as I can. Um so we're having baby turn around today. Um because he's in the breach breach position. So we're just having a scan now and see where baby's at, what position baby's at and yeah go from there. So they're just in there now just waiting with baby bread who's having a nap. So we are at St. Mary's Hospital.

[00:00:39]Um because they have the specialist doctors there. Um so yeah, we're at St. Mary's and yeah, just waiting now to see what position the baby's in and to see if he's turned around itself. If not, getting him to turn around today. So yeah, I even said to Shannon before I went, if they turn baby around, then there's a chance you can go in labor um tonight. Well, that's what happened on me with Keegan, but everyone's different. Like when I had John Jo turn around, he like came out three or four days later. So yeah, but Keegan was the only one that came out the same day I had it done. So yeah, I'm so excited. I'm going to be in that early day. I'm so excited.

[00:04:10]and a tie up bucket. Yeah.

[00:04:18]>> A kisses to kisses.

[00:04:20]>> No, forget how I am.

[00:04:27]>> Did he give you one?

[00:04:29]>> No.

[00:04:29]>> Give me a kiss.

[00:04:43]So, just got home from the hospital, guys.

[00:04:48]Now, today didn't go planned to go to I don't even know what I'm saying. It's so later on right now. Today didn't go to plan.

[00:05:00]Um, we went to St. Mary's to have baby turn around. As you guys know from what I filmed earlier, um we went to St. Mary's to have baby turn around. Um they didn't do it in North Manchester because they haven't Oh, baby girl. They haven't got the um they haven't got a doctor on that can turn baby around.

[00:05:25]Um so anyway, they only had a doctor on at St. Mary's for today that can try and turn baby round.

[00:05:35]I didn't really feel comfortable with having baby boy turn around 38 weeks, but Shannon wanted to go ahead with it because she was determined she didn't want a C-section. I think it's more to do with the C-section cuz obviously what I've been through with the C-section and you know it reopening and things like that. So I think that put her off. So she was determined to have baby turn around. Um and obviously it's Shannon's baby, you know, she wants to go and try and see if she can have a baby turn around and you know, she don't want to have a C-section and then she's the mom and you know, it's her choice. So I wasn't arguing with my girl. Um so I've I was like thinking to myself like I was even googling it. I even spoke to the midwife last week. You know, I know that you have your baby turn around 36 to 37 weeks. Shannon's 38 and two, right? And I'm thinking, you know, can this happen?

[00:06:35]Will it be too big? Should you be really like could you should you really be like, you know, moving baby at this far along in pregnancy? I've never heard of it. Oh, what's that? Um, I've never heard of moving a baby after 36, 37 weeks. But Shannon wanted to go ahead and do, you know, go through with it.

[00:06:55]And I've had two successful babies that have been turned around. They call it some name, but I can't remember. Me's baffled today, guys. I've had a stressful um day. Um, you know, but anyway, we had baby turn around. Well, we got halfway. So, as we've got in the hospital, as you guys seen earlier on, we were having a I was sat in the waiting room. I weren't even expecting to go in to be honest because I took baby Brandon with me because obviously my hubs was at work and things like that. Um and me oldest son had Natalia and um John everyone else is in school. So I thought like I'll take Brandon, you know, I don't want to leave him with all three of them, especially Natalie and Brandon and being so young.

[00:07:43]So I've took baby Brandon with me. Um, and as I was waiting in the waiting room, like Rowan said, "Oh, doctor said you can come in when the procedures happening." And you know, I'm so glad I actually went to this appointment, guys.

[00:07:55]Oh my god, I'm so glad I did. Um, I did go to this appointment. Um, and anyway, as we were in there, we sat in there and, you know, I met doctor. They did a scan. They did a check baby's heartbeat as you guys seen earlier on. Check baby's heartbeat. Perfectly fine. Baby was perfect. um moving around, you know, heartbeat heart rate was completely perfect, fine.

[00:08:20]But she's had a numbing um injection.

[00:08:23]So, they numbed her they numbed her stomach and things. Um and as like they returning baby around um Oh, guys, it's the worst. You know, I I've been through it twice, but you know, when you're watching from, you know, when my husband says his point of view, you know, you're watching, you think, "Wow, wow, how is she doing that?" And she was in so much pain. So, as the doctors got the baby's head to around about the side cuz obviously head's up here to the side. Um, Shannon's asked the doctor to stop because she felt really uncomfortable and she needed a break.

[00:08:58]So um so doctors went right okay we we'll we'll wait a couple of minutes and then we'll try again.

[00:09:07]So something was telling me to check baby can you check baby's heart? Can you check if baby's okay? So he's checked to see if baby's okay.

[00:09:17]Um and then he couldn't find the baby's heartbeat.

[00:09:22]So I'm like I'm like you know what what what what what's going on here. So, as he's like looking around and, you know, trying to find baby's heartbeat, told Shannon to sat on the side. Sat on your side there and we'll go, you know, we'll go down this way.

[00:09:36]And he's scanning and, you know, trying to see where um heartbeat is. And he told Shannon to turn on the side and he found it, but it was very, very rare, very faint heartbeat, guys. And um I thought, you know, how dramat it went to his heart being perfect to his heart being so dangerously low, guys. And I mean dangerous where we could have lost baby today. Um so next minute he's like trying to move Shannon to any position.

[00:10:07]So baby's heart rate would come up.

[00:10:09]Baby's heart rate was not coming up. The next minute the alarm's going off for Shannon's heartbeat's going sky high.

[00:10:15]And I mean high. So the baby's is going dangerously low and Shannon's is going too high. So next minute the doctor's got up and he's slammed the red emergency light. Slammed it down. Loads of midwives. I'm having a bleeding panic attack. I don't know what's what's going on. What's going on? We need to get her into surgery now. We need to get her into um fear now. We need to take the baby out. Emergency C-section.

[00:10:38]Um and you know, Shannon's nervous wreck. I'm trying to cuddle Shannon. One of the midwives took the baby out. You know, you know, Brandon and you know, Brandon was getting quite agitated. What What's going on? Why is all these people running in? And I'm sitting there trying to like tell Shannon everything's going to be fine. everything's going going to be fine. But in my head, like I don't know what's going on, but I need to comfort my child. You know, she's screaming. She's upset. She she doesn't you know what's going on, mom? What's happening? We're having baby turn around. Why is this happening? And you know, guys, how can we be laughing and joking one minute to having a joke and a laugh and, you know, excited to go and have baby move around to nearly losing the pair of them. Do you know what I mean?

[00:11:34]How that can happen within the space of five minutes, I don't know.

[00:11:40]But to see my child, my child is so much pain and distress.

[00:12:00]Have you that will last for probably a couple of hours that Shannon but have they give you pain relief?

[00:12:09]So guys, hello. So it is the next day.

[00:12:13]So I'm not going to lie. Yesterday was traumatic.

[00:12:16]Yesterday was hard. Um but you know what? Today is a happy day.

[00:12:23]Today is a happy day in here. We've been blessed. We've been blessed. We really have. We've been blessed. Our Lord's blessed us. Um, so baby has just had his baby check. He is perfect. Absolutely perfect. Everything's fine. Everything is fine with him. And we are over the moon. Everything is fine with Shannon.

[00:12:45]Shannon's doing okay. She's had um her antid.

[00:12:50]She's had well, she had her antid this morning. She's had strong um she's had a bit of morphine this morning, ain't she?

[00:12:59]>> Um because she's in really severe pain.

[00:13:03]Um cuz it's only been like 24 hours since she had her C-section. So, she's been in pain. She she feels her legs and stuff now. So, she's walking a little bit. Um and they're both doing fab. Both doing fab. Everything is going well. all observations and everything. And you know what? That makes me happy. That makes me happy. From where we were yesterday um to where we are today in it. It was it was scary yesterday.

[00:13:34]>> Um I was I was so emotional yesterday.

[00:13:37]How like we could we were laughing and joking waiting for having baby turned around. Then we're going to have a look around Primark. Take Shannon around to look you know she wanted to look for like more baby things and things like that. And when we had baby turned round, um, baby didn't deal well with being turned round. Well, I'm thinking because it was so because she was so far like 38 plus 3 days, 3 or 2 days. Wow, it's busier and it's crazy.

[00:14:06]Um, so I'm thinking like usually they move babies around 36 weeks, 37 weeks.

[00:14:11]But when I was speaking to the midwife, it happens quite a lot. Some babies will Yeah, it's like that dog. It's quite common in it must be. Yeah.

[00:14:20]>> Um I've had the procedure done twice.

[00:14:24]I've gone into labor a couple of hours after having Keegan after having that procedure, but it never stressed him out or anything. And with John Joe, I had him like a few days later. I've never had like obviously what Shannon's been through like where it made her baby, you know, like her baby was in like a dangerous situation yesterday where she could have lost him yesterday or how dangerously low his heart rate um went yesterday.

[00:14:55]Um but you know what >> they're both perfectly fine now and yeah we're very blessed and we're very thankful and you know um pregnancy deliveries you know there's always something that can go wrong. Do you know what I mean guys? There's always a chance you know that things can go wrong. Um, but the way she's dealt with it, she's amazing, ain't she? I'm so proud of her in Ellie.

[00:15:27]>> Yeah, >> I'm so proud of her. She's done amazing.

[00:15:30]I just hate seeing her in the pain she's in now. Like I've just gone up now.

[00:15:34]She's asked me to come up. I've just gone up. Um like made a bed for her, help her in and out the bed, brought some snacks, brought some whatever she needs. Just got baby some more milk. Um she's breastfeeding. She's doing both because baby's struggling a little bit with um latching in it.

[00:15:55]>> Yeah.

[00:15:56]>> So, at the minute she's doing both. Um so, I've just gone and got her some more like you know them sterilized milk that she can get. Um you know, like the ready made, but like they got the tea and things like that.

[00:16:09]So, I've just got some the starter pack.

[00:16:12]Yeah, that's it. um just got us some another two boxes of them because like I said she is breastfeeding as well. Um but yeah, I've said she wanted to come home today. I said no sh I said I even spoke to the mid I went you know you need still the pram's bouncing up and down in the back there. Um you need more rest and yeah you need more rest and you know you're not ready for you know to come home yet. um because obviously she's still needing strong painkillers and things like that. So, bless her little heart. But she's doing amazing. She's doing amazing, isn't she?

[00:16:51]She's doing incredible. She really, really is. She's just had a shower and things. So, she is doing fab. Um and I'm so proud of her. I can't stop saying that. Like, I am very proud of both of them. Both of them. the way they dealt with Shannon and Amro and the way they dealt with yesterday and you know being so young as well dealing with that they've done it fab they've done amazing um so yeah I'm so proud of them and I am a grandma grandma but I'm sticking with Nana think nana grandma sounds old no offense to anyone that's a grandma I just like the word nana I just give him the cuddle I didn't half miss him when I him yesterday cuz me and Brandon cuz obviously they let Brandon on delivery ward um because uh in the delivery ward um waiting room because obviously we were there to get baby turned out but obviously we were expecting you know um the emergency that we had with Shannon and you know with baby um they let me in the delivery suite because we were next to theater in the waiting room.
