So I have my elective section booked for 12 Jan - the day of the junior doctor strikes! I have rang the hospital and they said they haven't decided what to do yet about planned operations on that day and they will get back to me.
I know that the junior doctors won't be performing the c section but I'm told that the consultants cancel planned operations to cover the junior doctors shifts. I'm not sure if this will apply to maternity services though.
Anyone else affected? If so, what have you been told? Worried I might go into labour before I get my c section and really just want to know what's happening!
