I've had a busy few days!
Monday was my first natal hypnotherapy session. Today we've been to a homebirth group. Ended up 'fessing up to being a midwife as I couldn't keep my opinions to myself 
. It was very very good though and the midwife who ran it made me feel like I have really made the right decision. Just so calming and reassuring. I've no worries about lack of support now.
There was another woman who has had 2 vbac homebirths who came to talk to the group. Her first vbac was at home and was breech. This is part of my birth plan if baby is breech so felt good knowing I'm not the only crazy one :) Baby is actually breech at the moment it is finally big enough for me to palpate properly and there is a little head bobbing away under my ribs. Head was under left ribs this evening, just now he has moved under the right rib. Is lovely knowing exactly where he is lying now! And pushing his head between my fingers like a ball!
Tomorrow I am attending the maternity liason committee which is for service users and the big wigs. It is a way of being involved in local maternity services as a consumer. As a pregnant midwife, I can't think of a better reason for getting involved in changing services offered.
Also tomorrow I have the supervisor of midwives coming to my home to discuss my birth plan and home birth. Really looking forward to this as it will make it all feel real and like it is going to happen!
Also have aquanatal tomorrow evening! I'll be dead by the end of the day!!
Phew!
Shelley - GP probably wants to change your antibiotics. Like you say you don't think they have worked. Once the UTI is confirmed by lab results they will give a list of which antibiotics it will respond to and which are resistant. You may have not had the right antibiotic :)
