weird things midwife says...

[keely027]

last night i thought my waters had broken while watching tv. this morning i called my mw and said 'last night i was watching a film with my husband and suddenly about a cup of clear fluid came out..does that sound like my waters have broken?" she said 'what film was you watching?' !!!!!!!!!!!!

That's pretty funny
So what were you watching?!

Had your waters broken then? (I realy want to know what film you were watching, but seems polite to ask about your waters)

The Adjustment Bureau, emma blunt and matt damon

no they didn't break, i think it was over hang from bath earlier that evening, freaked husband out though! good to see he was calm in face of possible labour :)

Sorry!! Just presumed since you were still here and posting that they'd not gone!

Midwives do say some strange things!

staylucky, hope you didn't think I was implying that you weren't polite

Ooh I love Emily Blunt - was the film any good?
BEST of luck with the impending arrival btw:

it was a good film, really intersting idea but ending was a bit lame

Just before Christmas my midwife said to me 'Do you want some condoms?' I gave her a bewildered look thinking ....do I look like I need condoms??!! Then she explained she was a sexual health advisor and we had been talking about my teenage sons and she thought I may want some for them!! to put in their Christmas stockings .....hilarious !!!!!

Perhaps she was asking so she could tell other mums to be about the film as a way to induce labour.

When my DD was born and 1 day home the visiting midwife (who was amazingly loopy anyway) turned the TV up that I had politely put on mute and kept shushing me so she could hear it! I was desperate to know if my DD was ok and I was doing things properly as she was my first and I was a bit worried but couldn't keep her attention!

Was a crap programme I was watching about people who were manic cleaners. Eastenders I could understand the interest in but not that!
