i can't help with the birth centre - although it sounds with most places, the sooner the better.

my bmi was 1 point over the limit of the original hospital i went to, so i was referred to a hopsital where they take 'high risk' patients. i have to see a doctor instead of a midwife (boooo!) but i'm not sure if that's solely based on the bmi or because i have high BP (i think it's more the high BP). but - i think it may depend on the hospital. maybe give them a ring & chat to someone?
