I am praying now. What a time to be having a baby! And yet if many of our ancestors didn't have this kind of courage, none of us would be here.

Not a good time. They sent her home today and told her to wait another three weeks!

Oh for goodness' sake...you can't tell a mother IN LABOR to wait three weeks?!?!
Who DOES THAT?
Praying for all of you, especially Elliot with the gunshot wound and your Little Mama. How is the boy with the propeller injury?

Daniel is doing really well with the homemade remedies and his colour has finally returned. He was pasty looking earlier. Elliot is at his mother's house in Managua. It is the only place he could safely travel to since the blockades have doubled up. Poor mama is terrified with reason. She is not alone and we're hoping that the last c-section she had was just for the doctor's convenience and not for something serious. We have actually considered getting the vet to come and do an ultrasound! At least he is better equipped than the hospital...

So you don't know if this current pregnancy is in trouble other than that she has had a previous C-section? In other words, she was looking at necessary C-section because of previous events but not current ones?
If this is the case, I may be able to funnel information from my very experienced midwife (25 years delivering babies) in the event you are not able to get to someone for the delivery.
VBACs are now being actively discouraged because of a whole variety of reasons like insurance problems but my midwife does them and it is truly a real possibility to do safely. I have a good friend who had six natural births after three back-to-back C-sections in four years. So if this situation continues, there is hope.

I pray for a safe delivery. We don't think the baby has turned. We do have an option of a vet who has an ultrasound machine, so at least we would know for sure.

Would it be helpful to get you in touch with a midwife?

I am not sure at this point. I have been speaking with @carey-page on discord about some homoeopathic things we can do. If the baby is not in position it could be a whole other problem. We can't get the vet until tomorrow. Hopefully, he can give us an ultrasound to let us know what we are dealing with. Mama is finally resting which is good.

Good on the rest. You are definitely in my thoughts and prayers.
Breach deliveries at home are fairly common among the midwives I know. Being out of position is not necessarily a big problem. One of the best things you can remember is that babies are actually best delivered from a hands-and-knees position or kneeling, especially breach babies. I've had babies both ways and upright on knees gave the best chance at a smooth delivery (mine tend to get a little stuck on the way down). I talked with my midwife about this for a few months with my last birth because Daniel stayed breach pretty late. As long as you don't have a transverse (sideways) presentation, you can still do this.

Were you able to stop the labor? Try another Hospital!

Can't stop the labour. Have to wait for the blockades to open a little for us to pass and I have someone in Leon looking for a doctor willing to do a c-section...

Rats! I was hoping they gave her something to shut things down! With her in labor, how could they let her leave?

I am praying for angels round about your place, shoulder to shoulder, with flaming Swords! No one will come near you, they will be sent somewhere else!
It would be hell for those you are helping, if you weren't there...Stay Strong!
