Well I have another appointment with the consultant this morning! I was supposed to see him last week but decided not to go because when I went back in November when I was 36 weeks i was kept waiting for an hour and 10 minutes in the waiting room and the doctor I saw didn't have a clue what he was talking about! He said I was to go back in 3 weeks time and he will do a sweep!! I just thought "not a chance!" He didn't fill me with confidence and I knew that I wanted my midwife at the GP practice to do my sweep which she did on friday. I rang the hospital yesterday to find out what this appointment is actually for and the midwife I spoke to said that it is to put a plan into action about what will happen if I don't go into labour naturally as my midwife can't make that decision! If my first daughter hadn't been born by emergency c-section then I would just be under a midwife who I presume would arrange an induction if you are over your 12 days but because I am hoping to have a vbac second time round I am under shared care but I am booked into see the midwife again this week for another sweep. I will not be happy if I am kept waiting for ages again and the appointment is a complete waste of time!!!
