First midwives appointment today

[excited]

Hi Girls

Just got back from our first midwives appointment and feel more concerned than beforehand!!!

I have noticed over the last few days my symptoms seem to have stopped (increased appetite, tiredness and sore boobs). I wasnt too worried as I have heard plenty girls on here saying the symptoms can come and go. However I thought I may as well mention it whilst we were there. Next thing you know Im being booked in for an early scan tomorrow!!!

Obviously this could be a good thing if all goes well and it will put my mind at ease (I had a mc in October) but she then carried on through the meeting saying things like "well we normally give you vitamins at this stage but I wont bother until we know everything is okay"!!!!

My hubbie and I didnt know whether to laugh or cry when we came out!

Sending you plenty of positive thoughts.
You'll have the scan soon, and fx you'll feel so much better afterwards!

Oh this midwife, she was really not very considerate !
I think health practitioners should really always keep in mind the human and compassionate aspect of their jobs. Lack of bedside manners drives me mad - when they have real bad news to announce, not to mention when they just don't have a clue as was the case for you today. Grrrr!

Keep strong and let us know

It was a little tactless how she approached it! Will be good to see babba tho! I am sure everything is fine Hun. X
