Not stressed because stress doesn't help the body do good things like make lots of platelets! But I have had some teary times and had a big cry with my MW the other day and complained about how unfair this all feels. I can't believe the run of bad luck! Though I think it's all come from the hep A and it's just had a cascade effect. Visualising platelets growing in masses and hopefully adding all the sleep should be helping. I'm getting about 12 hours in bed every night which is quite a bit more than usual. The kids are both due to start school this week (kindergarten/prep/foundation year for our eldest and a new preschool for the younger one) and I decided the little one can start the week after. Cut out all other appointments for the week too. Scaling everything back and focusing on being zen and rested.
phy- I've always had two MWs so they both come when I'm in labour. Last time my back up/secondary MW was first there but my MW was only about 30mins later. This time my backup/secondary lives closer and the chances are she'll be first too but I'm hoping my primary still makes it. We'll see! Can you get them both to come when you're in labour and make the call that way depending upon how long labour is?
