I haven't been able to get an appointment with my GP today and can't make one for a different day as you need to call "on the day" to get an appointment
I could have had one with a different doctor, but I really wanted to see my own GP
JP and I have decided not to change hospitals for the time being as the nearest one with an NICU is 20 odd miles away and only I have a car license so he wouldn't be able to drive me to a different hospital. Basically if I did go into labour early I would need an ambulance which would take me to my nearest hospital anyway
Plus I know the Consultant I have an appointment with is really nice so I feel confident that she will do the best by me and baby, I just wish I didn't have to wait another week to see her for her to put my mind at rest.
On a brighter note we are 24 weeks tomorrow
All through 2nd Tri I have watched people celebrate this milestone and hadn't thought about quite how special it is upto now
I have also been chatting to Poppy160 as she has had the same problem as me all along and she is now at term
. She has really helped me to feel better about the situation and I now feel that labour isn't imminent and I'm starting to relax and almost enjoy my pg again, so
to you Poppy160
Thank you all again for the lovely messages and for thinking of us
Lots of Love
Andrea, JP and EllieBump xxxxx
