Hello
I wondered if anyone has experience of being referred to a consultant for low BMI. I'm 16 weeks. At the beginning of my pregnancy, it was low, although I've always been the same weight and also same weight as my mum so nothing concerning to me.
Just been weighed today and I am on the cusp of low BMI. As borderline, they have referred me. My weight probably hasn't been helped by having extreme morning sickness/borderline HG .
Midwife said that at this stage nothing really changes for me and I should just expect a call. Can anyone let me know what to expect? And does it mean that I'm consultant led rather than midwife led? I would have been going to a midwife led unit in a small ish hospital for the birth. I Had been told previously if my low risk pregnancy became high risk pregnancy then I'd go to another hospital, so wondering whether my 'risk' levels have changed?
I have all these questions AFTER leaving my appointment, but any words of wisdom would be great.
Thanks.
