Does anyone know what makes you high risk to go under consultant care?
I had my first 2 at birthing centres and under MW care. My second baby was huge and had low sugar at birth. I was huge during pregnancy but they MWs ignored me each time when I said that the belly was way to big. DS was born weighting 2 pounds more than DD who was a normal sized baby. He got stuck as he was coming out funny but all was OK with him at the end. However I had split tummy muscles and needed a brace to walk during the first few days, I also got some prolapsing in the pelvic region.
I do not wan't to be under midwife care I prefer to be under consultant care. I am also over 35 years old but I think that does not matter anymore. Anyone under consultant led and for what reasons? Who do I ask to be under consultant GP or MW? Can I just request that?
