I am beyond annoyed, I've been to the midwife, we were supposed to do my birth plan but she didn't have time.... but it gets better... she's plotted my growth on the chart -but she didn't measure my tummy! I've had problems all through out pregnancy with babies growth & have just stopped having 2 weekly Growth scans. Then she writes 'feels well' In my notes, no I don't & if she asked she would know! I did tell her I've been having pains and feeling unwell but I don't think she was listening. She didn't even check my urine when I provided a sample!! Also I'm supposed to have a scan for fluid & to check the cord blood flow today & it wasn't booked & she told me just to ring up because she was too busy! I'm so fed up with it all!!
I would put a complaint about it all tbh with you. tell them that u want to change ur midwife cos she puts u through stress and make u nervous. 😕 I still haven't met my midwife yet I had all different ones even time I go to my appointment and the last lady done my measurements and she done it so wrong. 😡 Bug am hoping I will see my midwife this time lol x
I'm gonnna get the hospital to check my urine & growth & call the midwife office and make a complaint. I don't want her taking charge of my care any more @mother_of_humans
Well the fact she's plotted my growth when she hasn't measured me has made me so mad!! I have hospital later for a scan anyway so they'll check, but it's just a joke @sara-lou xx
No excuse she's late. They always run late. She should be doing her job, not making stuff up & not doing other bits
Blood pressure & wee sample are standard practise every visit to midwife. Should always be done
I don't have a usual midwife. The doctors surgery is always so busy, we had to move doctors at 20 weeks because we moved house & the old place was great! I'm so upset with it, I feel like she didn't care at all. And to not even measure my bump when I've had growth problems or to check my urine after I said about back pain which she didn't even acknowledge! @karenb1601 @ttcrainbowbaby @sara-lou @newmommyapril I'm just so upset because I've seen her before and she was running late & I totally inderatand she's busy but that shouldn't compromise the care of me or my baby. I've had a really tough pregnancy & don't need to be ignored & have 'feels fine' written in my notes. I've been in tears since I've been home xx
omg I'd be furious! As @ttcrainbowbaby said, even on an off day they shouldn't slack and make things up! I would ask to be seen again by a different midwife, and write a formal complaint to the surgery. That's not on! Sorry you had to go through that at such a crucial time 😔 big hugs x
Jeez I thought my midwife was useless! That's awful. She's not even doing bare minimal but making up stats. Definitely cause for a complaint.
@emmaelaine, ^^wss hun. totally agree @ttcrainbowbaby x
Wow! I can totally see why you're annoyed! Is she usually better? Was this an off day? If not I'd totally complain. She was out of order. And no matter how busy she is, it doesn't excuse her slacking on the job!
I've been so bored since I've been pregnant. I don't have the energy to run around all day with my friends and I can't party so yeah.
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Sooooo Athena has to have the surgery 😥😥😥😥 I've been bawling I'm a mess ! I can't believe this is happening to my poor child ! Why ? What did I do that caused this ? I'm seriously on my knees bawling ! As much as I tried to prepare myself, I wasn't ready to hear those words . In 3 months she will have her cranial surgery & I pray to God she has a easy & speedy recovery ! Please pray for my baby ladies ! She really needs them !
I go for my growth scan today and found out she about 8lb 12 all ready and can't have my natural delivery
my God she sounds terrible! I'd ring up and make a complaint and tell them you want to see someone else rather than her! testing your urine is really important too! I hope you manage to get things sorted out! xx
