Consultant led care?
Hi, so I'm expecting my second baby, but third pregnancy. I had a 4th degree tear with a good amount of stitches and needed to be stitched in theatre due to blood loss and how many I needed. My question is, what can I expect from consultant led care? The midwife said they wont want me having a big baby but I was almost 10lb at birth and my son was nearly 9lb, so I'm just worried a little. She said they will tell me what kind of birth i should have and if i say no theres not much they can do. But she made me sign a form saying i agreed to a c section if i needed one. Which doesn't bother me, I'd prefer a natural one but if i need it for me or the baby then I'm open minded. My sons birth was quick and easy with only gas and air when contracting, pushing I had nothing.
What can I expect? I'm terrified!
