I'm 26 weeks pregnant and my partner doesn't drive. He has know I'm pregnant since January. Since then I've been nagging him to take lessons as he will need to drive me to hospital when I go into labour.
We have no family nearby (at least 2 hours away) nor friends as we have recently moved to a new area. Plus I don't want my parents or anyone else to be put in this position. I also do not want my mother at the birth as she is very panicky and high stress.
Partner has just told me he's started to look at intensive lessons but the next available driving test is 2 weeks before baby is due...
I am so upset and angry right now. He is assuming he will pass first time which is ridiculous but also baby could come early! And I am not going to feel confident in a car with him after he has 2 weeks driving experience and needs to do 45min drive to our hospital which involves busy motorways...
I am so disappointed and just needed to get this off my chest...I wish I could drive myself but I know that's super dangerous.
If anyone know of any miraculous ways to book earlier test dates let me know!
Fuming...
