Seriously, I bloody love that man! I saw him today and he didn't seem in the least bit phased by all my problems. Instead he sat down and said that he wanted me to have a fetal medicine scan at 20 weeks with another consultant and probably an MRI later on in my pregnancy. i am going to go see him again when I am 24 weeks and he reckons that all going well I might even be delivered at 36 to 38 weeks which means that there is a possibility that I will not have a preemie baby. This is only if everything goes well though and I am well aware anything could happen between now and then. The point is I know I am in good hands.
He also remembered my youngest who was with me today. He personally came into hospital to do the c section when I had him on his day off. This is how good a consultant I have and this was 8 years ago. I have been left feeling much happier about this pregnancy now despite the fact I know there is still a big risk to my life and a hysterectomy is pretty much inevitable but hey ho, that's life!

| Comment from Kitten90 » Posted Jul. 17, 2015 11:28am Glad to hear you are still hanging in there! =) And glad you have a wonderful consultant. My midwife is like that, she remembers her patients from years ago. Always nice to see medical professionals who actually really do care about their patients <3 |
