Sounds like the appointment went well MarcellusAre you happy with those pathways? Did you decide whether to do the GBS test? I had it last time as the birth centre said if I transferred to the main ward of the hospital I would be treated as positive so I did it in the hope of being negative. FBC also said they were happy for me continue as low risk and not use antibiotics if I was positive so it seemed better to do it rather than not. I was negative luckily and this time I'm not doing the test- will just monitor baby.
I had a midwife appointment with my secondary midwife, Nicola, yesterday. She's really lovely and we had a good chat. Baby is very low in my pelvis so I'm getting quite sore- she recommended a chiro for me which should be good. I also had a BH when she was feeling my tummy and she mentioned irritable uterus... then today I realised my tummy is almost hard more often than not so I think I may actually have an irritable uterus. Damn. Had a lovely long swim today and I wish I could go to the pool every day- it felt so good.
My birth pool is ready to pick up too which is exciting. We can start planning the spaceSetting it up in the spare bedroom/office so we need to move the desk out of the room. Going to have the pool and the sofa bed in there which should work well.
I also started buying a couple of homebirth things today- disposable gloves etc. All very exciting
