to not want to spend half the day in the AN clinic on Friday when it would have been my DD's seventh birthday that day?

Really not looking forward to it! I've had the appointment a few weeks but it didn't occur to me what the date was until we were discussing plans for the weekend.

Last night I emailed the SoM who has helped me with a few things and asked if she can arrange somehow to get me pushed through because it's a high risk clinic it means a half day appointment, they're bad enough at the best of times but it's really not a day we want to be hanging around there. As it's a high risk clinic it's only held monthly as non-obstetric doctors come from another hospital.

I'm getting a little twitchy because I've had no "away" message but she's not responded yet, I'd have thought with something this sensitive she could have at least sent me a reply and said "let me see what I can do" even if she needs time to work things out. I just want to know that I'm not going to have to sit around there. OH's hoping to get out early too, even though he's coming with me, so we can take the girls to visit their sister.

So what do you think - should I just put up with three hours there on that date, am I being too twitchy about a reply?

Yikes confuddleddotcom
Let's have a look at how we can reword your title for you as Mmelindor suggested.

Hi again OP
We have changed your thread title from "It's my daughter's 7th birthday on Friday and I'm due to spend half a day in antenatal"
to " AIBU to not want to spend half the day in the AN clinic on Friday when it would have been my DD's seventh birthday that day?"

We realise that this refers to your DD in the past, but we wanted to make it clear to anyone coming to the thread without reading it what the situation was to avoid any further confusions.

Hope the midwife can sort things out for you and you can be less stressed.

Hello all

Apologies for the confusion, which we probably added to by changing the thread title - I've added a note to the OP now (hope this is OK with you, confuddledDOTcom) that will (I hope) help to make things clearer for people new to the thread.

Best of luck to confuddled in getting this sorted out - we'll be thinking of you on Friday.

Thanks
MNHQ
