I'm currently 32 weeks pregnant and am STRESSED OUT!!
My husband and I only moved to this area last year (4 hours drive away from all of our friends and family) because of his job. We haven't made any really good friends and don't know anyone who we would feel happy leaving our 19 month old ds with when I'm in labour. I've never left him with anyone but my parents before and so obviously they would be our first point of contact but they may not be able to get here in time.
I was considering asking for a c-section as then at least I would know when I will be having my baby and my Mum can get the time off work and come up to look after James. I realise that this is a bit extreme and unlikely to be agreed to. What about being induced though? Would they be able to give me an exact date of when this will be done? Is a consultant likely to agree to this? I really don't want to be in labour and be worrying about my ds as well. Has anyone else been in this situation? Any suggestions?
