As Jim's wife Daisy gets near the week 16 mark they start thinking about the birth plan and deal with family drama!
There's been some family drama on the pregnancy front! I'll come back to that later in the blog, cause it did amuse me... In the meantime, the good news is that my wife Daisy's sickness and nausea - which she suffered from pretty badly in the first trimester - is now fading. She'll be 16 weeks soon, so hopefully she'll get to enjoy the second trimester a bit more than she did the first.
So - fingers crossed - all is looking pretty good on the pregnancy front right now. Let's hope it stays that way!Yorkshire Midwives On CallFor those of you that haven't seen it, you really should! It's an outstanding reality TV series on BBC2 that shadows Bradford's inspirational home-birth midwifery team on a day-to-day basis as they carry out their jobs; their goal simply to support mothers through pregnancies that culminate with a home delivery if viable.
I thought to myself, if Daisy has a quick labour, the ease of access and the simplicity of the drive to Hinch more than compensated for the more complex though shorter journey from our house to the middle of Peterborough.We also thought to get feedback from other mums who'd given birth at those hospitals.
However, one or two not-so-positive stories emerged about immediate post-natal care at Peterborough from mums who'd had c-sections. While this could possibly be due to staff resource issues related to Covid, in contrast nobody had a bad word to say about Hinchingbrooke. In fact, most of the feedback about the maternity unit there was glowing: 'lovely midwives', 'great doctors', 'terrific team', 'very supportive and friendly', a 'family hospital'.
There was no rushing about. No drama. The waiting room had loads of space in it. There was no stress. Everybody had smiles on their faces and were calm... plus, we were encouraged to ask as many questions as we liked, without being hurried out of the door to accommodate the next person.
