Hi Girls,
Kinda need your help.
I have been merrily bimbling along through my pregnancy and doing as Im told and reading the books and just generally none the wiser to what should be happening from a Midwife point of view!
This is my first baby. I have met a community midwife at my booking in appt at 9 weeks and thats it!
When I had my 12 week scan baby wouldnt lie right so i had to go and have bloods and counselling for the Downs Syndrome testing. This counselling was given by a midwife who i havent seen again since. Well I havent seen anyone since! I have been sent a GTT appt and an appt to see an Anaesthetist just incase i need a C-Section, but thats it.
Im 23 weeks and I have no idea who my midwife is, I have only wee'd in a pot once and Ive been told by a colleague who is on her 2nd baby that I should be getting far more input than that from my Midwife.
Is this true-have i completely missed the boat or does it depend on the Hospital Trust on how much input you get?
Also, on a completely different subject, does anyone feel like Baby is goin to poke their foot out of your lady bits when they wriggle? Its the wierdest sensation, not sure i like it!!![oooo :oooo: :oooo:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/oooog.gif)
