Well i decided to see if any midwifes are free but the three i've rung so far(and they are part of bigger places with more people have not had any space or known any one who has:( dunno what to do now..or how to act around my midwife tomorrow at my appointment ..ugh:( oh well. if anyone knows anyone in chch with space for a 25 week pregnant lady:) let me know!!!
GandT yes that's one of the reasons...i think it's kinda important under the circumstances.. and yes i guess i could go with a hospital midwife though don't know how to go about that and don't know anyone who did that..would rather go with someone who i know is good i sorta prefer more individualised care..
I have a hospital based midwife and she provides fantastic individual care ... they are there for the whole pregnancy preriod and then do the baby visits afterwards ... the only thing is they arent there for the actual birth.....I love mine!

You can use chch womens hospital midwifes but you wont necessarily have the same one every time and there are no guarantees who will be on duty when you go into labour. Who is your current midwife (PM me if you dont want to say on here)
GandT..the first time it happened she laughed and said she thought she would just talk to me at next appointment...i never rang back i don't see why i should have to(i dont need her to ring back urgently just when she gets a chance..I've rung her 4 times in 24 weks) ..she could ring me back at any time..this time it was about medication and it's been two weeks and no reply..
and after last time i said to her if its something i just wanted to check..like when i had my dizzy spell..i said to her if its not a problem don't worry bout calling back..and she didn't..this time i said please call back and left number 2 weeks later nothing..and I just don't feel comfortable.. but i will see what happens tomorrow..
thanks my2angels..will see what happens after appointment tomorrow
yep they rang back yesterday to say they have to wait till about 11 to check with all the midwifes...still at least thy rang me back..that was exciting:)
good luck kawwww, i hope you get someone new! i would feel uncomfortable too with someone that doesn't return my calls! i used a lady from midwifery associates on manchester street (i think that's the right name) for both my kids and she was awesome! she's overseas now though unfortunately but her backup lady was nice too.......let us know how you get on
