Everyone was so kind when i was panicking about possible hospitalisation with a transverse baby, I guess an update is due!


Baby wa sturned to head down by ECV and despite dour predictions he would flip back, follow up scans have showed him staying head down. We met with the hospital midwives (inc head of the postnatal ward who is confident it has improve dbeyond all recognition, for anyone worried) to agree a plan in case I did end up there.... but all seemed oin track for homebirth.


Until Friday (just short of 39w) when I developed stomach pains, temperature and felt really ill... MW came and baby's heart was racing. Spent a few hours at the MAU and got admitted overnight to the labour ward for IV fluids and monitoring.... dx as some sort of virus.... same home Sat after agreeing to go back Sunday for more monitoring 9all fine!) and a final growth scan today (all fine!) so now we are back, as we were, waiting and hoping for a homebirth and no more complications...


EDD is Sunday.


I think it's the only homebirth ever amongst haematology patients (I had a DVT in pg no 1 and have a blood clotting disorder) but all the drs seems OK about it, or at least, they know better than to argue....!!

    • "One of the most disturbing features of the Gaza genocide has been Israel’s attempts to prevent the truth from emerging to the world. But Palestinian journalists, writers and filmmakers are resisting these attempts, against incredible odds.  [PSC] are supporting the release of a major new film - “From Ground Zero: Stories From Gaza” - in cinemas across the UK from September 12. It features the extraordinary work of 22 Palestinian filmmakers living through the unimaginable reality of the genocide.  Please support this film in your local cinema. There are 84 screenings already scheduled and more are being added. Click the link below to find your local screening.  “From Ground Zero” is a collection of short films ranging in length from 3 to 6 minutes using a mix of genres including fiction, documentary, docu-fiction, animation and experimental cinema. They capture some of the diverse experiences of life in Gaza from the perspectives of Palestinian artists. Above all, the films demonstrate the steadfastness of the people, their shining humanity in the face of tragedy and persecution, and their ability to maintain hope for freedom and justice. We cannot allow Palestinian voices from Gaza be silenced or go unheard.  On Friday 12 September at 7.15pm, the London premiere will be hosted at Genesis Cinema in Whitechapel, including a Q&A with Director Rashid Masharawi and PSC Director Ben Jamal. Book your ticket at the link below. https://www.genesiscinema.co.uk/event/100618 “From Ground Zero” was taken off the lineup of the 2024 Cannes Film Festival on political grounds after initially being accepted. But as this film release shows, the voice of Palestinians cannot be so easily silenced. The film itself will help strengthen Palestinian voices as all proceeds from the film go to the Masharawi Fund for films and filmmakers in Gaza. We too will never be silenced in our solidarity, campaigning and uncompromising demands for freedom and justice for Palestine."  Direct link to information about film, trailer, and UK screenings link: https://www.cosmiccatfilms.com/from-ground-zero  
    • British Heart Foundation on the OKR will pick it up from you
    • I'm sure they don't chop down trees just to get to use the chainsaws 🤣 I doubt the people making the decision to chop are the same people wielding the saws, but I might be wrong. Trees are normally only cut down if they are diseased or potentially dangerous, or both. Or if they are in the way of something, of course 😭
    • It sounds very much as though they like using the chainsaws too much
