Hang on while I check the diary ... I had to phone the Health Ed team and book myself onto these, all happening at St Marys.

29/09 (wk35) - 2 hrs A/N
05/10 - tour of labour wards
06/10 (wk36) - 2 hrs A/N
13/10 (wk37) - 2 hrs A/N
21/10 (wk38) - 2 hrs BF clinic

Having just looked at those, I must ask again at the Placenta Clinic about the chance that they'll induce/deliver me early due to Beanie's growth problems (if he's still small). Strikes me as they're all a little late on, I could be delivered during those 4 weeks

In some areas you get them and I believe they've just started offering them here too but we were at that stage before they brought them in so missed out.

It's beginning to look like 8-10 hours of Antenatal is about the average then!

Thanks for all your replies ladies.
