Midwife not reassuring

[Expectingbsbunumber2]

Anyone have a midwife like this? I seem to leave when I see her more worried than I went in. She doesn't reassure me in the slightest and always gets in a flap about any concerns I have.

What kinds of things does she get 'in a flap' about? If it's important medical information you need to see a different midwife. There will be a senior/head midwife at the maternity unit you can contact.

I see a different midwife at every appointment and they are all crap. They all jump to extremes, reassuring about nothing, and have no compassion, patience, or ability to read my file! Last time the midwife basically had me convinced I was being admitted at 28 weeks, saw the doctor and he said nope you're fine see you at next appointment. Dreading having to actually deliver with them and trust them.

For one she had my due date wrong. I was like you have m a week behind from what I am. I am 24 weeks 5 days and was giving my due date at my 12 week scan and she still didn't have it right. Wow sounds like your having a shit time of it with midwifes. Exactly we put our trust in them!

Yeah it is medical information, which worries me. I think she must be like that as a person but a midwife is there to reassure the best they can. She is nice don't get me wrong but sometimes she stresses out and that makes me stress. She told me one thing and when I had to call up the hospital about something she told me something completely different.

I had a couple like that. Had to argue over my due date, and with one I had to argue with her over the fact it was my second child. She was adamant it was my first, because that's what the notes said. She wouldn't have it that the notes were wrong. I finally got tired of arguing and said that fine, If DS1 is a delusion I won't bother collecting him from nursery, and could she give me a note to pass to social services after nursery call them, just explaining that it's fine and he's just a figment of all our imaginations.

Still, my favourite was the one who when I was 20 weeks and had had medicated hyperemesis since 3 weeks (second hyperemesis pregnancy), chirped 'have you tried ginger?'

Sounds exactly like my midwifes @Foggymist. Saw a new one every time I have went, think they are all in the wrong job.

Glad I have 4 weeks left and will never have to experience them again.
