Hi - I am 30 yrs of age - pregnant on 3rd pregnancy at 32 wks, first child died 27 days after birth from undetected vasa previa - was also supposed to be a set of twins but one never developed in utero. Second child is alive - both were emergency sections though I was awake for the child who is now alive. I am concerned as they found I have gardnarella - grade 3 - severe - am 32 wks gone and would like to know if I should be worried about the implications this could have on the placenta?? My labia was swollen and my body resisted canestan cream and pessaries. I have now been taking gyno-daktarin to clear it up. I also have married organs from the first section going wrong on me - they took a cyst off my left ovary on my 2nd section after the baby was delivered. When they tried to unstick my married organs I went into shock and they nearly needed to give me a blood transfusion as I lost 600 ml of blood. I also was shaking badly for the whole C section as the IV fluids didn t go into my vein correctly which meant I got a red line up my left arm afterwards signalling I had an infection in the arm from not getting enough IV fluids. I am worried cos my veins are so small that this could be an issue on this baby. Since this gardnarella infection is so severe - what possible implications could it have on the baby to be??? Thank you.
