Hi I'm 38+5 and sat at the hospital for the second time this week.
Was sent in on Tuesday due to high blood pressure,head aches, vision disturbances. Was checked over on trace machine etc.
No protein in urine was found. The baby was nice and active kicking away as usual (think 35 movements in 25 mins) was sent home as they was happy.
Came back today as requested and I feel like they are not taking me seriously at all. Same symptoms again no protein but have found traces of white blood cells in my urine. Mentioned that baby had been quite the last 24 hours. Moving but alot less.
The midwife is useless complete faffer.
Left mid way through the consultation to answer the phone and was gone 30 mins.
Finally was put on the trace machine and was forgotten about for an hour when it should of been 20 Mins. The baby only moved 6 times in this period and I pointed this out and they don't seemed bothered.

I'm now awaiting a scan to check the placenta.
I'm dreading seeing the same midwife tbh.
Do you think I can request a different one?

Sorry for the essay my mind is all over the place.

I know it's hard but I think you need to be more forceful that you are concerned. If you're not happy with the response you're getting, ask to see someone else. You've noticed a change in your babies normal movements and this should be taken seriously. Good luck OP, I'll be sending brave thoughts your way!
