Thanks everyone - I am seeing the Obstetrician tomorrow which is why I am so glad for the feedback today. I am having the CTG scans once a week anyway - as I'm on leave now its no big issue to have them every couple of days.
Kelly - I haven't read those studies - I will have a look.
Mel - the reason I went with this Obstetrician is because of his experience with IVF babies. However given that I have been under at least 5 gynocologists/obstetricians over the past 25 years before this current one (including having a really bad experience with the one that is currently running the AMA - shudder) as well as 3 Fertility specialists (one brilliant, one good and one that was an idiot) my trust levels are not incredibly high, which I discovered when I was seeing someone else about my anxiety levels. However he is a straight shooter and I just need to keep a balance between my reactions as well as be willing to let go and trust. Thanks for the information on the placenta too - I had not realised that this could happen.
I will meet with my Obstetrician tomorrow and take it from there. Thanks everyone for your input.
