Hi Wombles

I think in your situation I'd give your current ob and/or hospitals a call and try to get some more information.

For instance, d'you know what the cut-off weight is for your local hospital? Would you consider seeing a dietician to see if you could manage your weight down to that level? I'm not suggesting a radical weigh-loss diet btw, but it may be helpful to see what a dietician has to say.

Otherwise, perhaps find out what hospital did the other woman go to?

Glad that your pregnancy is going so well and sorry that you have this stress to deal with at the moment.
