I'm a uk citizen. My dh is kiwi so is my baby. I'm 18 weeks and have been confirmed that I'm eligible for care until baby is born.
I have to have a c section, and now I'm a bit worried. Only being entitled to care until baby is born, does that mean I won't get to stay for he standard 2 days post section? Will I be denied painkillers or food afterwards? What if something goes wrong with the surgery? Will I be out on my arse with no care?
Is there anyone here who has been in my situation? I'm seriously scared, at home post section I got a severe blood infection that almost killed me and had paralyticillius (SP). That's when they touch and temporary kill your bowel. If this were to happen again would I be kicked out and left to fend for myself if I couldn't pay for care.
Please someone help and give me advice, I can live without having midwife coming to my home after, but I don't know what I'd do if I got seriously ill sad
