I had my first midwife appointment on Wednesday of this week and I am officially 'high risk', which I expected. This is due to my weight/BMI (which is 44, eeeek!) and the fact my last pregnancy resulted in an emergency caesarean.
I've been prescribed stronger Folic Acid to take until I am 13 weeks, and stronger Vitamin D (with Calcium?!) to take for the entirety of my pregnancy.
I don't so much mind being 'high risk' and consultant led, as I like the idea of additional scans! I'm a little more nervous about getting gestational diabetes this time around though, as I am just over 4 stone heavier than my first pre-pregnancy weight with my daughter.
Anyone else in a similar situation?
