I must admit to feeling a little out of place in this thead as although my losses have been sort of late, I can't pretend to begin to understand the pain and devastation that a stillbirth must give. I have read posts with tears just flowing and I can't believe you are able to offer the most incredible support to others - so strong.
I would, however, like to add to the trecent thread posts by saying:
(and I have come from 10 years UK NHS middle management (non-clinical) experience)
Lynn - def. a lot less than acceptable patient care, pretty bad show, and I think (sod his reputation) look elsewhere for someone who makes you feel taken care of.
Flower/Deb: you are now my bible and personal mentor - 'nuff said!
Tommysmum; In situations that you have just faced, I would have punched people - I may be English but I DO NOT have English reserve!!!! How did you hold yourself back so well????
Spring: Ditto the punching re. the ultrasound place - but sounds like you have harnessed some quality OB care in Sydney
I am waiting to submit our NZ(Oz was deined too hot for DH!!) Residency application (ie medical hoops to jump through on paper) and then my GP is going to start testing & investigating for possible APS (thanks to Flowers superb posts) so I will dip in when I can
