    First Visit - not happy

    I had my first visit to the hospital today i was under the impression i was going to get given a tour of the hospital and get checked out as well....umm wow was i wrong!
    I am 10 weeks today anyway went to the hospital had a visit with one of the midwives she chatted about my previous pregnancies and any problems etc then that was it
    Told me to come back in 5 weeks for a visit with the Doctor to dicuss what options i have ie if i want shared care or midwife care etc etc

    Umm i am lost, usually you get your BP tested dont you and they attempt to listen to bubs heartbeat? Its only been two years since i had dd so cant imagine things have changed that drastically!

    I havent been there before last bubs was at sandringham and ds was at monash in moorabbin but i would have thought i got a tour at least as i did with the last two bubs ohh and the first bubs as well even though it was what seems years ago!

    Maybe i should have said something but i was kinda angry when i got out of there and dd and ds were angry too lol

    Oh this is at monash anyhow in clayton by the way

    ohh another thing i thought was wierd why she didnt do my blood pressure i have been feeling utter crap (very head achey and head spins etc)
    and i have to arrange my ultrasounds via my normal GP as i want to had the 11 week scan due to medication i have been on etc
    she told me anything that wasnt pregnancy related to see my GP which i understand but these headaches have only been happening this week so thought it might be related somehow grrr sorry forgot to ad this bit lol
