Being 6 months pregnant and deemed at high risk, I would term myself as a vulnerable patient and sensitive due to the hormonal changes. From the outset of my engagement with maternity care at Victoria Hospital it has been somewhat shambolic. It felt like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing!
The midwives however have all been extremely lovely that I have met...the main issues arise from being told something different every time from the Doctors involved and too top it off at my latest appointment, I was made to feel that I had done something wrong and as if I was wasting the Doctors time being there, as there had been changes to my appointment times.
I appreciate that it is a stressful environment to work in however that is not my problem! I am loosing any faith that I will be fine in this pregnancy and after this latest experience I am very apprehensive about having the Doctors involved in determining my delivery and the safety of myself/child.
