While I believe every pregnant woman should have continuity of care with known midwives (in additon to obstetric care where required), it is surely an even greater imperative for those classified as high risk? How much gets overlooked or forgotten about as women get bounced from one carer to the next?
So true MadB! There were countless times where I had to tell THEM where everything was at. I guess that is the big benefit of having a private Ob in a high risk situation, and part of the reason I went that way in the end.
It would be sooo nice for all high risk mums to have access to a continuity-of-care MW who collaborates with an Ob. It would be the ideal situation IMO.
