😭😭😭 im so jealous!!! I’ve been told I have to take leave as a) There’s too many pregnant people on my unit and b) I decided to have my baby at the hospital rather than the one I work at!
Owe no sorry I wasn’t trying to make you feel jealous! I thought everyone got paid leave for appointments surely we have a choice where we have the baby? Tbh id love to work with women! And if one more man tells me to name the baby after them I’ll lose my tit 😂

Am I a mouthy cow because I’d have put in a complaint for that!?

re the appointments when I was working I’d always take my time after call my partner and go to Starbucks 😆

Nah I’d done the same or my famous “I don’t get that joke can you explain it to me” line

I work in tech they’re just harmless little nerds I find a pitying look does more than a complaint 😂 😂

I had my 25 week midwife appointment today, and I was told I have low PAPP A levels. They said they sent a letter informing me in APRIL but I never received it!! Any of you ladies been told the same thing? The midwife said not to worry as it can be quite common nowadays!
I got a letter around April for this too! I have a phone call with some department tomorrow regarding it, not sure what the point of a phone call is and especially two months later??

I've spoken to my midwife and all my scans baby is growing correctly and no worries apart from my low placenta.

Won't complain about the extra growth scans though, any chance to see her :) I was also prescribed low dose aspirin... most of it comes up though as I'm so crap at taking things in water (sorry if tmi)

Different places as I. Different trusts? Or different employers. It's so bad. I work in a school where we know transmission is high. And there's no social distancing. Urgh

I won’t lie I take three hours paid leave even if it’s just a ten min Appointment up the road. I work with all men non of them have children so they don’t really know the process. Then I go shopping or to McDonald’s. Am I terrible person 😂🤦🏽‍♀️
No you are not a terrible person you are intact my kind of person 🥰

Yeah its crazy there lack of urgency!! Exactly, got to look at the benefits and I deffo wont turn down any extra opportunities to see her ❤ Same I can barely even keep down my vitamins!!
 
Just had my midwife appointment apparently she is deeply engaged 1/5 no wonder it's bloody painful 😂 was hoping it's a sign she will be here soon!!

Apparently a letter was sent but I didn't get it and no one decided to mention it until now!! I have a consultant appointment booked and two growth scans, but nothing was mentioned about aspirin!! I will drop them a message and ask about that then. I don't even know the exact figure I'm low by as they have now only just resent the letter! I was worried at first especially after googling it for the first time, but the more I've read the more it seems like it usually works out fine in the end!
Yeah it seems to be different in different trusts - I’m supposed to be consultant led but I’ve never even seen or heard of a consultant yet and I’m 32 weeks 🤷‍♀️ it’s nice to be able to see the baby again though!

I used to take a wee bit extra (to be fair I am a teacher and always err on the side of caution so a class isn’t left sitting without me!) and go to b&m 🤣

That's exciting! When are you due?X

I'm jealous of all you ladies getting growth scans (although thankful nothing has been flagged up for me to need one so far). I know they aren't exact but I'd love to have a rough idea of what I'm working with, I can't stop thinking about the size of the whopper I'm growing after seeing his cheeks on the 4d two weeks ago 😂🤦🏼‍♀️ I think I will probably pay for a private measuring scan in a few weeks, does anyone know the best time to do one?
