Hi everyone
I am really hoping to have a c-section this time around after two horrible deliveries, both were 10 days late resulting in being induced and needing ventouse and lots of stitches.
I have a consultant appointment at 22 weeks as I have a BMI of 32.3 which I'm told puts me at a higher risk, I,m 42 years old, but I am otherwise very healthy, normal BP etc.
Is this appointment to early bring up the subject of and elective c-section ?, and what do you think my chances are of getting agreement from my consultant ? I really don't want another experience like the last two deliveries.
I'd appreciate any help, advice and similar tales anyone has to tell
