Just wanted to go rahhhh
Had growth scan, saw consultant who was ment to be using this info and info from my physio to discuss birth options. Well the bloke came in (foreign and very abrupt) said 'ah you having ventous?' I looked at him blankly and said I did last time, but not planning on repeting it, he took one look at scan resukts and said yes natural birth. So I said well that what I wanted to discuss, he said yes big healthy baby all fine. So I said how the physios suggested a section but we looked at natural birth, and he simply said 'well thats why they work in physio and not obstetrics as they dont know how to do my job!' No there is no problem here. No discussion nothing! So Ithen said what about anesthetic in case of emergency section, as I was ment to see an anetheatist and they havent contacted me. He looked at me blankly and I explained my history to him, he told the midwife in the room to call them and sort it. So he then left (and that was the end of my consultation) and the midwife then called the anestheatist who said they were going to arrange to see me on the 4th May . . . 2 days after due date!!! So if things go wong and I need a section I have no idea if I need a general, or spinal etc, which means I dont know if Im allowed to eat in early labour etc?
So I went back out to OHwho was entertaining Noah in the waiting room and burst into tears, and he was at a loss at what to do, and was angry at how Ihad been treated, cause all I got was fobbed off, with no discussion like he didnt even know why he was seeing me, why I had been to see the physio or have the scan, and Im left with a scan result which says the head circumfrence is measuring 40w 5d when Im not even 38 weeks yet and abdominal measurement of 40w 6d!
Bloody *******s, wish I had never gone in for scan and consultation, as has just left me all the more worried.
