OMG
Just got back from MW... very very embarassing. My lovely midwife left.. new midwife is..........
My ds's dad (exp) girlfriend! and She is a nice woman tbh but part of the reason i chose the hospital i did was so that i didnt have her walking in and seeing me with my legs akimbo etc . Obv on an antenatal appt that doesnt happen but still felt very very odd. She didnt take blood as had problems finding vein (think they all ran away and hid). Baby is fine, he is still head down, bum up in ribs. Heart beat very loud and he biffed the monitor. She didnt measure fundal height but said everything looked right (couldnt find tape measure). She said i should have gone in when i had small bleed (apparantly she was in the office when i was called). She chatted about ds and also about her grandson etc so was pleasant and tbh she never has been anything but pleasant. JUst really uncomfortable. Blood pressure slightly higher at 118 but still not bad considering!
Was so weird having her examine bump and test my wee etc... not sure how i feel, she said if i prefer could try and see if i could see someone else but tbh it isnt like she will be delivering baby or anything.
She also mentioned about how busy is going to be around xmas/new year if expecting this one and i was a bit coy as ds has asked to spend christmas with me again and not visit his dad. She guessed that was the case (she has kids from prev relationship) and that she isnt going to speak her dp (my exp) about it at all. She said all confidential etc etc... ah well. Did say that i do need to speak to him but just dont want to make him feel bad, but fact is that ds dsoesnt want to be there for xmas. (am goingt o need a whole thread for this i think)
