Hello, a seriously disappointed patient with the one midwife.
I go to the midwifery and I am currently 33 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I switched because Rose medical was so traumatizing for me. U of CH I enjoy what they offer pregnant women like packets with plenty of information. On the other hand, there is a single midwife I cannot stand. She has been highly unprofessional every time my fiancé and I went in. Toward the beginning of my pregnancy was very stressful, and I had rapid weight gain, migraines, severe nausea, and cramps. Her only concern was the weight gain, she would make rude comments saying do not eat so much, eat healthier, and exercise. When I explicitly told her because of my food allergies with gluten and dairy I could not have any of that until I 2nd trimester when it disappeared. Since I still have intolerances toward sugar, msg, and fatty food naturally never really could have any of that to begin with. My 3 hour gym visits were cut down, and I was working 7-10 hour shifts 5-7 days awake until I got so sick, and my cramps got so severe I was fired from work. This midwife only concentrates on my weigh gain one point when it finally evened out, "glad you started to decide to eat healthy." So I had a talk about how I eat, that her daughter eats quinoa pasta because of gluten. I told her even that cannot have to much because it converts to sugar, that squash noodles are better. That I get lectured since I do not cook with salt or pepper. And among being rude, not listening to me, and making assumptions. This last time she said, "good you didn't gain any weight." which im 33weeks and 4days...I read the diagnosis after every time appointment this last one she just put rapid weight during pregnancy. NOW she puts its down after it stops? She also openly admitted that, "one of the other midwives is pregnant, and I was talking to her about you." I do not appreciate how unprofessional that is. makes me feel uncomfortable, not to mention when I had my vaginal exam with her I told her the duck lips were to big she was using it hurt. I told her to take them out, it hurt, I started crying my fiancé had to hold my hand. She said, "I know its uncomfortable but its almost done..." I told her its painful not uncomfortable those are to big. I bled after that exam. So I eventually switched days to try and avoid having her because I am already uncomfortable with doctor offices, but this crap makes me have bad morning and more stressed. Also when I asked her to write a note for my job for my physical limits she said she could not do it. I had to get the lady who drew my blood to get her to do it.
