Ergh the PA to head called in yesterday (I thought it might be about returning to work part time) she wanted me to fill in my risk assessment - a bit late lol I'm 24 weeks already, they've known since I was 12 weeks!
She asked how everything was going as I was looking well, I said I was feeling very positive after a great MW appt in the week about being able to achieve my HB and if not HB having a positive experience this time around.
You could see the look in her eyes - the gawd woman get over you big kid look and then she said well at the end of the day being in hospital is such a short amount of time on the scale of things and what does it matter if you get a healthy baby?
Not negativity per se but OMFG SHUT UP!!!!! It does matter and no matter how short a negative experience its still negative!
I really had to restrain myself from launching into a tirade about my rights to be part of the experience rather than a piece of meat on a conveyor belt of uncaring practices.
