Sorry I've not been about, was back in hospital yesterday (seems like there are alot of poeple in and out right now) after a big bleed and thankfully the baby is fine. They are concerned about my cervix and that it's not going to do it's job well now or hold out so long so I've got to go ahead with the cervical scan next Tuesday as planned and see the consultant. Was a long day, GP (on Monday) had booked me to MK hospital, had the scan yesterday but as I'm under consultant care at Bedford for being high risk, they couldn't/wouldn't investigate further, so I had to see my community midwife at 2pm and she told me I had to ring Bedford and speak to my Consultant. Rang up the antenatel ward but was told to go in as they needed to do some investigations for themselves and they would contact the consultant to let her know I was there. Checked baby again and was fine, cervix is closed at the top so far but slightly open at the bottom. Got to wait to Tuesday to measure the length though as apparently it was too early to do it yesterday. Was going to keep me in coz of the cramps but instead came home with co-codymol and instructions to ring them direct if anymore bleeding or the cramps worsen. Feeling a bit bummed about it all, hoping I'm given the option to be stitched Tuesday. If my cervix is long it seems good for now and they just have to try and find out where the bleeding is coming from if it continues, if it's short then I think I'll be stitched, but I'm not entierly sure till we speak to the consultant again. Thought you might like to see my 15+ week baby picture. Didn't get the see or guess the sex as it was EPAU and the hospital don't tell you till 20 weeks, but we have our private sexing scan on Saturday at Babybond anyway.
