Tegam... I found at the end of the pregnancies alot of small things needed to be ironed out in preparation before birth. How you communicate with your midwife and trust her is not a small one, it's a big one. Even though you say she 'knows' your history, it's a little bit like having expectations of your partner, sometimes they need it clearly said what you want and need( again and again and again). I would ring her (text is not clear) and say you are feeling really vulnerable and tell her what is going on, give her a chance to respond, you can't guess why she is making the appointment the way she is, be clear, open and honest with her, if it is emotional show her... smooth it out... and if you do birth fast, do not going anywhere... I have super quick births and you need to feel safe and stay in xxx
