midwife v doctor update!!!!

8 weeks 3 days! After a rather disappointing booking appointment with a horrid midwife who made me fell like she couldn't have cared less if my baby was in my tube when I voiced my concerns over the extreme pain I've been having on my left side, I took matters into my own hands and made an emergency appointment with my doctor who is scheduling me in for a early scan to make sure baby is where he/she should be! I explained to the midwife this wasn't just the general cramping like I've been getting with everything growing this was a lot more extreme pain and she rudely turned to me and said "don't be soo silly nothing is growing yet". By my lovely doctor had a fell and told my my uterus has significantly grown in size and it may just be everything growing but said we're better to check and all is fine than to not and let it progress into something worse! Hopefully baby will be just fine and hopefully I won't have to deal with the rude midwife again because I don't think I will be able to controle my mouth if I get her again. Soo I'm praying everything is ok with little babybat. Just make sure if you have concerns about your baby that you are listened too, I felt soo unwelcome like I was wasting her time she had the nerve to turn to me during my booking appointment when I was trying to tell her about my left sided pins "your lucky I'm even seeing you it's just bye chance I'm even hear" now that's no way to be spoken to bye a professional! But always get yourself checked don't ever fell you have no rite to voice your concerns and that your just wasting the midwifed time like i was made to fell always get a second opinion if you rely fell in your heart something isn't rite and it's not just your normal cramping! I'm soo thankful for my doctor I fell a lot better just being listened too even tho deep down I'm petrified the outcome of the scan isn't a good one! I fell soo alone even tho my parter knows but I just don't fell he fully understands how I'm felling! On one hand I'm soo excited to see baby earlier and everything being ok but on the other hand I fell absolutely petrified I don't know how I'm going to cope on the day I fell all my emotions building up already and not sure wether to be positive or prepare for the worse! It's such a world wind of emotions and anger towards the midwife who could have easily have checked me on the day or atleast reassured me! But on the other hand soo thankful for my doctor and the actions she's taking. Just please always seek a second opinion and don't ever let anyone make you fell like your baby's life means nothing xxxxxxx
