I have 2 children Micah who is 3 was 3# 15.2oz 17 in long and 8wks premie. And Hannah who's going to be 2 on March 28 was 4wks 8# 5oz. and 18 3/4 in long and suffer from LBPI. Was told I could pass a 8# baby easily. Yeah Right!! And my pregnancy was high risk to begin with. And High Risk Dr. to. I think NOT!!

Next pregnancy if I get pregnant will be C-section for sure. Not taking any chances.

Hello Jana,
My BPI son was 9lb 9 oz and 21 half inches at 38 weeks also face presentation. Next, my daughter was a planned C- Section at 39 weeks 9lb 30z 20 inches. Ultra sound on my daughter stated 8lbs. Florida law is two years from the date of injury, ie birthdate. Where are you in Florida?

The idea was - go back to the same doctor - they known the history well - won't happen a 2nd time. Thought wrong!
