Feeling very sensitive and I think I need stories/advice/reassurance.
My baby was born 2 years 5 months ago. It was a horrifical experience, I got to 6cm but couldn't take the coercion and harassment/bullying of the midwife I had assigned (yes I asked for another but staff levels etc). I called C-section as I was in such turmoil and panic. I wanted away from her. (And yes it really was that bad)
Today I had some exploration work done by a gynaecologist as I have had some pain, tugging etc. turns out my bladder is adhesed to my uterus. I have my heart set on a vbac. I am extremely distrusting of the professionals now. Please no stories about good experiences with midwives etc my experience was truly awful from the moment I walked in for my booking. Normal pregnancy with no complications at all.

Today I also found out as an add on from the transvaginal ultrasound I had only one 1 visible follicle in both my ovaries. 2 .... Only 2. It was CD 1 as my period started afterwards. Amh bloods were taken. We did not successfully conceive this month. I know why possibly now.
Period returned exactly 9m pp. Regular cycles. Definitely ovulating as tested. So very very worried I won't be able to conceive. I am 35. I am devastated.
