Good even all,
Just looking for some advice on what to do next. I'm 15w 2 days and only had my booking in apt yesterday even though I register pregnancy at 8 weeks. So I've missed my 12 week scan. ( I did pay privately for one as I wanted to see if all was well)
The midwife was very young and kept having to go out of the room and ask somebody questions I was asking her. I mentioned I wanted to book a private utility room after birth with she said wasn't possible as im asking for a elected section (2nd baby was emergency section and got a bit frantic) and I'd be put in a ward specifically for elected sections and encourage to be up and walking after six hours and home within 24 hours? ( I've got horrid visions of some nurse yelling ' come on ladies up and out'
She also asked about my mental health, when I said it was fine - she said she had looked through my file ( must have GP notes from years ago) and said she had seen that I'd had counciling for sexual abuse as a child and how was that going? Which to be honest actually floored me. How the hell is that relevant to my midwife what I had councilling for? It was years ago.
I was really upset when I got in the car to come home. She didn't have to bring the SA up and I'm petrified now at being asked to get up after six hours when my spinal bloke wears off so I can go home.
Is she talking nonsense? Who would I call to ask to see another midwife or to ask some one to explain this to me ?
Thank you
