Ok so I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome as a result my risk of prem rupture of membranes is very high as is my risk of preterm birth. Both have occurred to me directly in my first pregnancy where I went into labour at 28 weeks and was placed ona drip for a week which thankfully prevented the labour progressing far enough and was given the steroid needles in my bum for baby to mature lungs in the event the drip didnt work. at 31 weeks my waters then broke and my son was born at 36 weeks. As a result im now 14 weeks 1 day and have received an appointment for the preterm birth clinic... my appointment will be done at 15 weeks 6 days and im told in the letter they say that i will need an internal scan as part of the assessment anybody else been through this (ive had internal scans before i know how that all works) and can offer some insight into the clinic itself and what they will do etc at first appointment except for scan and decide whether or not i need regular appointments or not... also random but would they be able to see babies sex during this scan :o (the final thought is one that just occurred to me lol im not too fussed as i find out next month anyway)
