Hey,
I only just saw my MW at 26 weeks 2 weeks ago, to book in with get, as was at Birmingham children's with DS when early pregnant n got booked in there n referred to the appropriate places, when he got home I waited till after my 20 week scan to get booked in near home, by time I got to see her I was 26 weeks, she did general checks n said she wanted to see me again at 28 weeks for bloods.
So I saw her yesterday n after bloods she asked me if I wanted an antenatal check?!!! Wtf erm yes do check my baby that's what I'm here for!!!!
She then did all was fine, she said she will see me now at 34 weeks!!! N I should have seen a consultant by then if not ring her (I want to be induced like with DD to sort appropriate care for DS with meds n weekly apps he has)
She said coz its my 3rd baby n I'm low risk I don't have to be seen till 34 weeks now (so if I hadn't had an antenatal check now my last would of been at 26 weeks so I'd of give 8 weeks with out being checked)
My concern is that I had pre eclampsia with DS, I went for my 35 week check all was fine then at 37 week home visit my BP was so high n had protein in my wee that I had to go in hospital n be admitted for last 2 weeks of pregnancy till it all got worse n he had to be delivered... So it progressed really quickly n I my self felt fine so wouldn't have known if it wasn't for BP check n pee check.
Is this normal?? N acceptable?
I got my scan tomorrow which will reassure me she's ok etc but still worrys me not seeing anyone for that long.
Although I know if I have reduced movements etc I can call n be seen.
