Its not just me that has awful midwife experiences then! The first baby i had my midwife was amazing she understood everything about the relationship i'd left etc... and was superb through-out my whole pregnancy, this midwife acts like she's got a bollard up her a*se and is better than everyone else.

I do really sympathise with you as they are clearly jumping to conclusions. But on the other hand I know from experience that staff working with children are currently under a lot of pressure from management becaue of cases like baby P's.
As a teacher I know that staff are more aware then ever and don't want to ever feel that they have failed a child or a family.

That said even if there was an issue-which there clearly isn't-the first step is always to provide support not critiscm and judgement.
