    Good luck to all you movers, we moved in together (from 2 separate places) when I was about 16 weeks and it was pretty stressful! OH wouldn't let me lift anything (even light things!) and it seemed to take forever....but we're in and settled now so don't worry, it's all worth it in the end :)

    and even though we have our place, the baby still doesn't have a bedroom/nursery because that's currently made up as our guest room. As baby will be in with us to start with, we didn't see the point of decorating it for a succession of adults to come sleep in it, so I don't get to decorate the cute nursery until baby is a couple of months old! If it ever decides to come out.....

    I can beat you, we are in a one bed and no sign of a buyer in the near future. We'll survive though, I do have a 2 bedroom flat in Essex so worse case we just move their.

    I had my appointment through for the consultant today as I'm having consultant-led care (although, still seeing my MW).

    Is anyone else here having consultant-led care? I don't know what to expect.:o

    I am just means my consultant does all my scans. If anything shows up he discusses it with me there and then.

    I'm receiving shared care - I have seen a consultant after all my scans (had 6) and my midwife the rest of the time. Other than getting a more detailed history taken and sorting out a detailed birth plan my appointments with the obstetrician haven't been any different to those I've had with my midwife.

    I've handed in my assignment :) Still glad I was granted an extension for a few days as it got submitted 2 hours after the official deadline but it's now over :D Next one is due in August I think.

    Spent the afternoon eating strawberries and reading a book in a cool breeze :)

    It depends what the reason is, ladymorticia. The year before i conceived I had LLETZ treatment (for abnormal cells on the cervix) and apparently there can be scarring which can, rarely, cause issues with the cervix during pregnancy and labour - so mine is because of that. However saying that, nobody has ever bothered to check for any scarring so i think its quite possibly a box ticking exercise rather than actually required.

    Personally I dont like both the consultants ive seen, and take what they say with a pinch of salt, and then ask my midwife what she thinks about it and take it from there ;)

    Thank you guys. :)

    I'm seeing a consultant because I have severe M.E and will most likely need a C-Section. As far as I know that is the reason.
