Please tell me I'm not the only one who feels like this.
I had twins who were delivered at 34 weeks due to PET. I was admitted at 30 weeks and just hated being in hospital. All the midwives were miserable, I couldn't be in my own home, eat my own food, had terrible sleep due to other patients.
I'm now 21 weeks pregnant with a singleton pregnancy. Every day I fear it, I cry at night and dread the day of them ever telling me that I've developed it again. It's different this time round. I have 2x 2.5 year old little boys whom I've never left. I spend all day everyday with them and they are my absolute world. I'm at the point in my head that if I develop it I will refuse being admitted. I know your thinking I'm selfish but I'm not leaving my children and only seeing them an hour a day. Surely I can manage it at home or surely only being 20 mins from the hospital I can go in every 4 hours for checks!?
Has anyone refused going into hospital and negotiated management by going into hospital every 4 hours but not actually being admitted on a ward?
