It sadly seems to be the experience that loads of mums get given useless or even harmful advice by their health professionals or end up feeling unsupported or upset by them. They always seem to get a really bad press on boards such as this.
Has anyone else been lucky enough to have fantastic health professionals? I feel I have been so so lucky. Although I have come across some pretty miserable midwives in the hospital who really upset me my team of community midwives and the midwife who delivered DD this time have been absolutely fantastic. I also have a fantastic health visitor - I had had pnd twice and would have been lost without them all. I also have a great doctor and had a lovely down to earth pro home birth consultant. Reading other peoples stories I feel incredibly lucky.
Knowing my health visitor has young children herself and so do some of the midwives - and could well read these threads - I wanted to say a big but anonymous (lol) thanks to the great ones out there.
Does anyone else have/had fantastic support?
