I am really unhappy with my midwife, she is abrupt and rubs me up the wrong way. She will offer her opinions rather then facts or guidelines. I really really dislike her and find myself deliberately not phone her for advise because i dont trust her to tell me the truth/not be rude and treat me like an idiot.

How do i actually go about changing? I know she is not about tomorrow, so i was hoping to start the change then so i dont risk speaking to her!

I think you have to speak to your gps but I couldn't change mine so I just saw her for the check ups and spoke to the community if I wanted advice

Why couldn't you change?

You need to speak to your supervisor of MW - there should be a section at the back of your notes with how to contact them Smile

I spoke to the supervisor of mw and she was lovely and said it would be no problem. She appreciated that it was a hard thing to do. Yay! So glad i won't have to see my horrible midwife again
