hi everyone
Im pregnant with twins and i am wanting to know if anyone has any contact phone numbers for midwives that are experinced in multiples pregnancys. Im 26 weeks and i stay in blockhouse bay. I currently have a midwife but she is not experinced with multiple pregnancys and wish to find a midwife that is. 2 weeks ago i went into hospital with sharp pain in my lower ab and had bleeding and was told that they were signs of a miscarriage. Since then the bleeding has stoped and i no longer have sharp pains in my lower ab, and feel that because of the threatening miscarriage i should be seeing more othen instead of every 4 weeks. I have only seen a specilist once and that was 2 months ago and my midwife said i dont need to see the specilist until im 32 weeks. This is my first pregnancy and im not sure if the midwife i have should be doing more or if im just stressing out about nothing. So if anyone can help with passing on phone numbers or advice it be highly appreciated. |

Hi sorry can't help but didn't want to read and run. We used the birthcare team midwives they are fantastic! I only had one baby though.
All the best with your pregnancy!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I'm not sure about Auckland, but here in the Naki I wasn't able to be cared for by a MW, I had to be under specialist care. Are your twins fraternal or identical?? As this dictates the type of care received, scans etc.
Oh, and welcome to OhBaby  Twins rock hehe
