I have just had the worst night of my life, and its taken me 3 hours to stop crying uncontrollably.

My Dr, who I've been seeing throughout my pg is on leave (bereavement), and since I'm at 41 weeks, the midwives I'm seeing sent me to see the OB who's filling in for him.

So I go for my appt.

First, he does a stretch & sweep without asking me or any prior warning.

Then he says he's booking me in to be induced tomorrow, which when I questioned it he tells me I'm going to kill my baby cos I'm past 41 weeks.

The he goes on to say 'I'm not into any of that airy fairy b@lls#$t! You'll deliver on the bed, on your back. I'm not a vet.'

So I said I was planning an active birth, (which is what my Dr prefers)
and he says I'll have to see someone else and good luck getting in to see anyone else at this stage of the game.

So now I have no obstetrician, no doctor and I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm seriously thinkg about fronting up tomorrow at the Royal Womens to see if I can have my baby there instead of the hospital I'm booked in at - can they turn you away if its a public hospital?
