I didnt get a Bounty pack!! Also some midwife related Qs
I had my booking in appointment last Friday and just realised I didnt get a Bounty pack. Im a bit gutted (i know im sad) and i really wanted to go get the mum to be pack from Boots. Should everyone get one? To be honest my booking in appointment was a bit of an anti climax. She asked how i was, gave me a scan date and took blood. I think i was only in 15 minutes, i thought there would be lots more to it.
Also wondering does everyone have the same midwife everytime they go? I have one of four women and cos of where my doctors is they arent even in my town!!! Also been told cos of where i live i will not see them after the birth as i will be handed over to the ones in my town. I am wondering whether to ask if i can move to the ones in my town now.

Well like some of the others have mentioned the pack isnt much to stress over but it is nice to have a little something to get you excited about and the voucher u receive also gets u ??5 off george at Asda so thats good for buying some sleepsuits or something. Ask your midwife when you next see her and demand to have one, i did when i lost mine, let alone didnt get one!
Also make a list of questions you want to ask from your midwife and she should take the time to reassure u of all these points and if like my midwife (who i see all the time as well as my consultant) she misses things out, point them out to her. Dont be afriad of speaking up, its important you do! Im on my second baby and im way more ascertive this time round and always ask what certain things mean in my notes and what she is putting!
