I have seen two, but that's because our doctors surgery have different branches and I chose to go to one that was closer to my hubby's work, where a different midwife is based.

The first one was fine with me but she was a right cow to the support workers with her and I didn't like that. She also came to my home to complete the booking in appointment and again was fine with me but just a bit cold I guess.
The second one at my 16 week appointment seemed a lot nicer but obviously had an issue with my weight as she did go on about it a bit - not too much but certainly more than the first and she wouldn't do the heartbeat because of my weight (until I cried about it - I had been feeling ill and been looking forward to it all day! Then she agreed to do it!)

I think when I see her next I will get a proper good idea about what she's like. The appointment wasn't really long enough to make my mind up.

I guess I am not overly bothered though as they presumably won't be the ones there when I give birth and so I am just hoping the ones at the hospital are really nice! x
