Hi Fuschia I had pregnancy induced hypertension in late pregnancy with both of my two. The first one I was scared and stayed in the hospital, but in hindsight wish I'd have discharged myself as the stress of it all made my bp worse, but the second one I planned a homebirth and was dead set against going in, so I managed to persuade them that I'd go in every other day for bp trace, blood test and scan here and there. Baby was fine and I managed to stay at home doing this before I naturally went into labour at 41+6. I even bought my own BP machine to keep a close eye on myself and would have gone in should it have gone crazy. Obviously we are totally different and I don't know anything about your pregnancy, but wanted to say if you feel really uncomfortable in hospital and induction is being really pushed onto you, maybe you could discuss going home, but coming in for monitoring? Just a thought. Good luck with everything x

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      By Rockets · Posted

      Two wrongs don't make a right. Labour ran on a manifesto of "we aren't like them" and "we are different" and"you can trust us/we will restore faith in politics". They are doing nothing to convince anyone that any of those promises are being met - they are letting everyone down. u-turning on everything and are fast-tracking the doomsday scenario of a Reform government. Even the runway on the "it's all the Tories fault" is running out. I dislike politicians because they cannot be trusted and Rayner just highlighted that with ribbons on. She should have been so careful after the focus on the electoral roll issues she had with the house in Ashton-under-Lyne and then under a year later this comes up. Clearly the advice she took included a recommendation to take proper advice that she failed to do - that's just daft and the most galling thing is that she didn't just resign when this came up - she tried to spin out of it but must have known she was toast. Trust is fast being eroded. I desperately want Labour and Starmer to fix this because the alternative it too scary to think about but the way things are going they are fast-tracking Farage into No.10. Labour are letting us all down.

      So you are also old enough to remember the Heath Out protest by the TUC when unemployment hit 1 million? We all have selective memories, this thread is no different. Please give me a list of the Labour sleaze. And compare it to the Tories.  There are a few of you who appear to have a long term dislike of Labour, so all this is a gift.
