At 29 weeks, I've had two appointments with two different midwives (antenatal only) and the last one spent much of the appointment on the phone or complaining about other people... In addition there are no ante natal classes in my London borough (Redbridge) and no NCT as they have no staff.. The hospital (Whipps Cross - I'm hoping they concentrate their efforts on delivery) had it's 3hr 'parent craft' sessions for women due in November 2 weeks ago (when i'd asked they'd said I should ask nearer the time and my midwife said that they would start at 32 weeks..). I'm really disappointed at the standard of ante natal care and know that I am lucky to be able to afford to pay for ante natal classes, books on what to do with a new baby etc. Has anyone else had similar experiences?
