I'm Currently Feeling:  | Ask for a swap, they have to understand that some people just don't click. This is your special time, and you have the right to enjoy it, and if that means changing your midwife then so be it.  |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | My midwife was pretty useless at first. After 16 weeks I found out she's actually a really nice lady and very helpful! |

I think you should do whatever it takes to get someone you feel completely comfortable with. This is YOUR time. It's important you feel as comfortable as you can. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | well as i've been ill with the flu and a chesty cough i coughed really hard n i had a cramp down there!!!
i called the midwife n she came straight away.... maybe because i'm further than i was??? whatever the reason, she was listening for bubba's heart and reassuring me that everything will be fine, so i'm having second thoughts now x x x | | | | Status: Offline
