I’m so sorry this is happening. Is there anyway you can send an email to the obstetric department so it’s all followed up in writing and insist on being seen?
@Leolie thank you. That's a good idea, I think I'll spend some time getting it all in writing with the aim of doing just that xx
@Laura thank you. I've paid privately for a check today and things look ok at the minute, but not enough for me to not keep worrying. A consultant has agreed to give me a telephone appointment on Wednesday so it's a start xx
I have a 26mm cervix and Colchester hospital has been giving me scans every 3 weeks as apparently under 25mm is a risky of early labour, it is mad how different UK hospitals can be so different x
@jodie I ended up paying privately for a scan and mine is currently 28mm. Don't know what to make of that as, while it's not 25mm, it still seems pretty close to me. You're so right, it seems to be a postcode lottery which is so frustrating. I'm glad your trust is giving you the checks you need xx
@Laura that’s great someone is giving you a phone call, hopefully that can give you some reassurance too. I do feel like you can understand different countries rules and regulations, but not different hospitals all part of the NHS. X
I’m so sorry you experienced this. I have no personal experience of this however could you contact PALS regarding both pregnancies to see if they can help any further? X
