ReeRee that's terrible! And no you don't have to see him or have those tests.

Aimz: I had my MW the 2ndMW and a student MW my mum was there for DD and my DH. I was going to have a birth photographer but after talking to my MW and DH about it we decided against it given my history of PTSD as didn't want an extra person affecting my progress. And even with all the other people I had there they weren't all there the whole time and I'm glad as I need to feel comfortable and not have people crowd me. I was glad my MW Helped talk me out of having a birth photographer as I really think it would have been to much for me. My MW was great though as she seems to really know what I want and need in labour and really respects my space which was good. My mum and the student MW took photos though and I got some good ones out of that. And given how my labour didn't progress as planned it was a good thing I didn't have an extra there.
