I second what HotI has mentioned. book it all in (as i did!) get the scans etc done by the hospital (saves $$$) and then after the morph scan (if you have one) you can inform them that you are taking a different care arrangement. this can be a good way to save on costs in the early days so makes the cost of an IM much more feasible.

I would also be prepared for the news that the hossy wont take you in the MGP. if they do really class you as 'high risk' the policy will no doubt bar you from that program...

Kelly: oh gah! i hope that it is all sorted ASAP for you

Lady Neon: hehehe that is so cute of your mum! is she excited to be there?

AFM: all good here. finally getting consistent rolls and kicks and pushes from baby which has exponentionally made me more excited
i have the morph scan coming up in like 2ish weeks where it will be done in italy... i am nervous as it is a very medicalised system and i am worried about my PTSD being triggered. but i will have to work through that i guess....
