So yesterday, I was feeling a bit worried as baby had gone a little quiet, his movements had reduced (not stopped), I've been staying with a friend in her area which is outside of where I normally receive my usual pregnancy care.
I tried to ring the hospital to get advice but after so many calls I had to go in.
Saw a healthcare assistant who asked if I had an app and my name, told her my name & said no, then very rudely replied with "well I'm still going to need your name aren't I!"
So I firmly replied with "I just told you my name was .....".
She went off to speak with the midwife right outside the door, midwife was asking a lot for of questions & finally came in to see me.
She then told me that I had to go back to the hospital who normally deals with me as they don't have a computer system & know nothing of me, I informed her I brought my notes which would tell her everything they needed to know.
She told me it didn't matter
She then "advised me to go to my hospital of care"
I asked "are you telling me you won't check to make sure the baby was okay?
She then repeated "I advise you to go to the hospital who usually deals with you".
I then very firmly asked again, "so you are turning me away & wont monitor me?"
Her reply?
"Yes, we are a bit busy too".
She turned me away, told me to go to the hospital I usually deal with even though I explained I was completely out of area, she then lied & said my notes made no difference, which is shite. Then told me I had to leave even though I was concerned about my sons movements.
I'm 36+2 btw.
