"No help"

About: Watford General Hospital / Maternity

I am worried about giving birth at this hospital now. I am 26 weeks pregnant and my midwife went on maternity after seeing me the first time. Other midwife did not do any checks at all and sent me home. I am not sure if everything is fine with me. I have been feeling extremely sick, my baby has slowed movements and got lot of pain in my stomach and head. I have been extremely unwell and when called Maternity Triage for advise, they did not even hear all my symptoms and told me that they are no chest doctors and how I need to goto my GP. I think this was very rude and as it was pregnancy related issues, they should have at least hear me out fully. I am really worried about giving birth here.
