    Will I be treated any different?

    Being this is number 4? All of my births have been pretty straight forward. But I wonder if I am likely to encounter anything different being my 4th bub?
    Like am I going to be treated as a higher risk or anything like that?

    fionajill, this is no. 4 for me as well - i doubt we will be treated differently, might get the ' you've done this enougth times before' comment - but other than can't see why not.. it definitely doesn't categorise us into 'high risk' though.
    good luck with it all..

    I think it's 5 or more you get the higher risk label... you will be fine

    You wont be treated any differently, and Kel is right, its your 5th and more!!. Just more monitoring of bub and placenta, and there more concerned for you afterwards, losing blood and uterus not going back into shape But with number 4, you'll be fine. And big congrats, you'll love a "big" family, its great

    FJ, you should be treated the same hun. It's not like you've had a previous c section or anything like that. And Yep, it's 5 or more babies that your considered "high risk" I was a grand multi, atleast I am grand at something
