I had a BMI of more than 35 when I was pregnant (2005/6) and had full midwife led care. Never saw a doctor once. Aren’t midwives meant to be the experts in normal childbirth- who will refer you on if there’s a problem?

This is not a dig at your care plan btw, just musing that it never happened to me! Hope all goes well for you

I think my bmi is going to be bang on 35 unfortunately so I think that I'm going to need consultant led care this time around.

Anyone had any experiences? I had midwife care last time but unfortunately didn't lose the baby weight!
