The thank you midwife one. Yes thank you midwives, birthing women are no problem but the adapted 12 days of Christmas song is so cringey!

For me two midwives complaining over me about work politics whilst I failed to get the urge to push (I wonder why...). Oh and lack of sympathy about how SPD was causing inability to move.

Maybe we need our own song!

The midwife I had during labour was a bitch, when things got completcated the head midwife who was an even bigger bitch told me to shut up and stop screaming and I couldn't possibly be in pain as I had an epidural. She told my husband to stop being nice to be and "bully me" into pushing the baby out
She then convinced the doctor that I would not feel a thing when I had forceps as I mush be imagining the pain (I felt everything)
When she saw me up and walking 2 hours later she had the nerve to say "that epidural must have slipped
So my line would be on the 12th day of Christmas the way I was treated by the bitch of a midwife left me with PTS disorder

I had 3 pretty straightforwards labours, but I really dislike it. Christmas is a very difficult time for many people, and I think it is a very insensitive advert. There is no warning that it is going to happen and will catch a lot of people, women especially, unawares.

Totally agree with this.

I also thought that the stillbirth storyline in Call the Midwife, was a really bad idea, when you expect Christmas specials to be all warm and fluffy.
