As from last week i became under consultant care rather than midwife due to getting high blood pressure at 35 weeks. I would have had a. 36 week appointment yesterday with the midwife, where she told me position and size. Instead i had a consultant appointment. She didn't even look at my belly or find out the position of the baby. She just told me i had to be monitored twice a week. Is anyone else consultant led? Do they normally check where baby is. I'm now really confused.
Thanks @mrsripper .I'll question all of this tomorrow at the hospital. I thought it was odd.
I'm consultant led have been from the start of my pregnancy due to a cervical operation back in 2009 ..... However I still have all my midwife appointments I just have extra with the consultant @fozzywoz
Ok thanks @amielee93 .I'm at hospital tomorrow for monitoring. I'll ask a midwife then.
Sometimes when I go I go to the hospital see the midwife first and then the consultant , but midwife just checks wee and blood pressure , but I still have my normal midwife that I go and see to @fozzywoz
Do you see a midwife too @amielee93 . They siad i wouldn't be seeing mine now. So who is going to tell me if baby is engaged etc?
I go to a consultant for different reasons but he only talks to me he has never looked at my stomach @fozzywoz
No worries. ... although my midwife appointments are always held at my doctors surgery so maybe give your doctors a call today and get booked in 😃😃 @fozzywoz
