Midwife appointment today - YIPPEEEEEE

[beth1234]

Well, at 3:45, im seeing my midwife and i know im definently getting a sweep - WOOOO!!

Forgot to tell you all - i think i had one of the most embarrasing moments of my life yesterday! Thought i was leaking waters, so trotted off to day unit - who sent me up to delivery suite!!! Then i got put in an actual delivery room - made it more real seein it all again (brought bacl painful memories!!) well, i thought all they do is give you an internal and that determines wether you waters have gone or not... Well.. NO, i found myself with legs spread, an instrument in me to widen the passage and a spotlight shinin on my mary with a midwife starin askin me to cough!!!!!!! I wouldnt mind but, mymwaters hadnt even gone!! I was so embarrased havin a light shone...there! Lol! Lord!

But anyhow - back to today, fingers crossed my sweep works ey ladies!

[beth1234]

Omg I been through the omfg have my waters gone in my last two pregnancies lol!! I thought they went again 3 or 4 days ago i was sat on the settee and gush! My husband was like eeeee exciting! I haven't had it checked as it wasn't huge and didn't want to tell you ladies on here coz i knew you would all say go to get it checked (sorry ladies) lol but I have had enough of triage I haven't had anything else either so I'm guessing it's another hind break like my last two were confirmed as lol thank goodness! Lol but omg yes embarrassing and brings it all back lol x

good luck for your sweep today hope it gets thing moving for you!!

 

[beth1234]

SHE WOULDNT SWEEP MEEEE!! arrrggghhh!!!

I saw ANOTHER different midwife who said it was ''against her law'' to sweep before term+7! But the mw i saw last week said she would do it this week!!! If i wasnt seeing my consultant tomorrow (where i know i am definently having a sweep and induction date as its written in my notes) then i would be majorly pissed off! Im still angry,but just looking forward to tomorrow now. Not engaged still, she said she could feel 4/5ths of his head!

Gawd if i wasnt seein my consultant tomorrow that would mean i wouldnt get a sweep until 10 days overdue!-next wednesday! So roll on tomorrow!

(she also made some smart remarks about my 'type' who dont get stretchmarks and walk out of hospital 2 days after in their size 8 jeans! I thought .. My 'type'!? Cheeky bitch!)

ohhon, know how you feel!! at least seeing your consultant tomorrow. Funny how midwives have different ways of doing things, not fair really...as means different ladies get different deals. My friend had a sweep yesterday one day before term!! Said her cervix was back like mine but mw managed to massage it!! not fair-they didn't try that for me well at least consultant tomorrow!!
