Why am I so scared?

[nunnie]

Of going to my consultant appointment on monday?

I have my list of questions. I had decided that I wanted an ELCS but have now decided open mind.
For some reason I am really nervous and I am not really sure why

This isn't my 1st Consultant appointment, and it isn't my first Consultant led pregnancy my first was Consultant led and I wasn't this nervous .

This is only to go through my options after one VB with failed 3rd stage and one EMCS due to brow presentation.

What is likely to happen? I know it depends on previous history and other personal factors so no two appointments are the same, but I think I might turn up with all my hair pulled out and suitcases where my eyes should be at this rate.

I have very little advice here, having only ever had a VB but I couldn't leave you unanswered - nothing worse than an anxious pregnant woman on the edge. All I can suggest is that you work out where the nervousness is coming from and address that - I'm guessing its the fact you ended up with EMCS and lost control of everything last time?? I'm under dual consultant care this pregnancy - cardiology & obstetrician. Whatever teh reason for the nerves, just remember that they're there to help you have the the kind of birth that's the most safe for both you and baby. And remember that nothing is set in stone. Good luck with it all - and hope the nerves ease! Lavender baths and early nights and lolloping in the sunshine tomorrow :)

Thank you wobblyweeble for your kind words. Good luck with your pregnancy.
