Badger notes?

Am I missing something here? I am 21+1 and have never been told about this app, never been sent log ins etc.

My midwife is beyond crap and communication is awful. Can anyone shed any light on what it is, do I need it etc?

I don't think it's used as widely as I originally thought!

Do you have paper notes? I don't have any paper ones and got login info created when I called to make my booking appointment so I guess if nobody has mentioned then your maternity care provider doesn't use it.

How far along are you? Maybe they're just being slow? X

Doh.. sorry! 21+1! Blame it on baby brain lol.

I think all Scottish health boards use it, but could be wrong.
Don't know if it's used elsewhere in the UK though.

I have this, I have not had any contact or anything and when I ring the hospital they just refer me back to it saying I will be updated on there

@Pigletting I'm in NHS Lothian and all my notes are paper notes! I secretly love carrying the big blue folder around Grin

I have paper notes, my sister has badger notes (we live in different areas). You should have one or the other, but which one depends on where you live.

I have both paper notes and badger! The sonographer in my trust can’t add anything to badger so I have paper for that and everything else is badger…if only the badger app would work 😂

I'm in south London and my hospital uses it, I was told to download it and log in during my first booking meeting with the midwife, and also got sent some info about it along with the date for my first scan.

It's just an electronic copy of appointments and notes so if you haven't been told about it by your hospital then you probably don't need it!

I have it and can log in but there isn’t really much on there. I can’t see appointments and they don’t seem to update a lot of the features. I can see the grow chart for the baby though.
